Pintola Peanut Butter — OKAY
Munch or Dump rates Pintola Peanut Butter by Pintola OKAY — score 60/90.
Mostly roasted peanuts, but Pintola added sugar, salt, and an emulsifier here, so it's a notch below the brand's clean 'all natural' jars.
Why this verdict
- Roasted peanuts are the #1 ingredient, delivering protein, fiber, and good fats
- Added sugar and salt nudge it away from a clean whole-food spread
- Contains an emulsifier (INS 471) to stop oil separation, an industrial touch
- Short, recognizable list overall, no artificial colors or flavors
Ingredients (4)
- roasted peanuts (safe) — Whole-food base packed with protein, fiber, and heart-healthy unsaturated fats.
- Sugar (moderate) — Added sugar sitting ahead of cocoa; the main flavor driver here.
- Iodised Salt (safe) — Adds sodium and iodine; fine in moderation.
- Stabilizer (INS 471) (moderate) — Glyceryl monostearate, an emulsifier used to stop oil separation; safe but an industrial additive that a pure peanut butter wouldn't need.
