PB2 Original Powdered Peanut Butter — OKAY

Munch or Dump rates PB2 Original Powdered Peanut Butter by PB2 OKAY — score 60/90.

Just roasted peanuts, sugar, and salt. Most of the peanut fat is pressed out, so you trade some healthy fats for fewer calories, plus a little added sugar.

Why this verdict

• Only three recognizable ingredients, no artificial additives or emulsifiers
• Defatting removes most of the heart-healthy peanut fats and vitamin E
• Added sugar sits ahead of salt in the ingredient list
• Still a decent plant-protein source per calorie

Ingredients (3)

• roasted peanuts (safe) — Whole peanuts, the main ingredient at 96%. Solid plant protein, fiber, and heart-healthy unsaturated fats.
• Sugar (moderate) — Added refined sugar; spikes blood sugar and turns a milky base into a dessert.
• Salt (moderate) — Adds sodium; fine in moderation but the main reason to watch portion size.
