    Peanut Butter

    trying to gain muscle mass without gaining too much fat, which i know is hard so if i do gain more weight than expected ill be fine with it. as long as im still gettin dat muscle ;] but i wanted to get some peanut butter to make my diet a bit more interesting and give me yet another choice of food.

    any certain kind to look for?
    things that are ok, things i should avoid, etc.

    i was looking at Taylorsnutrition.com - Bodybuilding Supplements | Wholesale Sports Nutrition | Vitamins | TaylorsNutrition - Home :: Snacks/Foods :: PowerButter Spread 16oz
    but is this too much?
    i already have plenty of foods for protein/good fats, etc etc.
    but PowerButter seemed pretty nice and beneficial to me.

    opinions please?

    Plain natty peanut butter.

    Just peanuts ground up should be in the ingredients. Maybe some salt... Nothing else.

    Get it in the grocery store.

    too much $$ IMO. But if your rich, what the hell.. and while your at it throw some my way!

    You can get natty pb at health stores like wild oats, or trader joes as well.

    maybe, the one I used to buy was adams if i recall.. it had a yellow label.

    alos it might look funny, natty pb seperates, so there will be oil on top. you just have to mix it up, and I kept mine in the fridge to make it hard

    ok wal-mart doesnt have many choices when it comes to PB..so this is what i ended up getting.

    Smart Balance Omega Natural Peanut Butter and Omega-3 From Flax Oil, Creamy
    Health Facts: No Hydrogenated Oil, No Trans Fatty Acids, No Refined Sugar, 1000mg Omega 3's

    it also says in small print on the front "Oil seperation is natrual, just stir before ues" so im assuming this was the "natty" thing you guys mentioned.

    serving size - 2tbsp (32g)
    servings per container - 14
    calories - 200
    cals from fat - 150
    total fat - 17g
    sat fat - 3g
    poly fat - 2g
    mono fat - 12g
    sodium - 110mg
    potassium - 190mg
    total carb - 6g
    dietary fiber - 2g
    sugars - 1g
    protein - 7g

    ingredients: peanuts, natural oil blend (flaxseed and palm fruit oils) salt, molasses, omega-6 1300mg, omega-3 1000mg

    this seems good. ima mix it in with my cottage cheese today and see how i like it. even if i dont like it, ill eat it anyways tho.

    and then on a side note, i bought me a can of vegetable juice for 50 cents because ive never tried it before. is this something good that i could drink say..a can a day?

    garbage.

    Just go to a grocery store. I haven't seen one grocery store that doesn't carry Natural Peanut butter.

    Sure you can have a Veggie juice once a day, just account for the Caloric intake. To me it doesn't count as a serving of veggies though.
