Peanut butter is a great source of a tiny bit of protein. If you need 60g per day, it is unlikely that you can get enough PB and its vehicle (cracker, bread) into your pouch to reach 60g. Use a high qaulity supplement to be CERTAIN you are getting enough.

I do peanut butter occasionally, but it is very dense and sits very heavy. So I can only eat a minimal amount of it at one time. And most of the low fat brands, like Jif, replace that fat with sugar.

I love it. I don't put it on bread. I just lick it off the spoon. If you shop around and try the different brands you will find some are better tasting than others. My preferrence is Jif reduced fat. YUMMY

I learned from an nutritionist, there is ptoein and then there is complete protein. Peanut butter is not a complete brotein, iti s mixed with wheat bread or sesame seeds. Other nuts are complete protein, not peanuts.
