I think raw (pure) peanut butter is ... but the ones off the shelf have too much sugar and stuff.

If you are feeling bloated, you could also be sensitive to peanuts (mild allergy). Try another natural nut butter and see if you feel the same.

Are you thinking of "Power Butter" maybe?

Natural PB has around 7 grams of carbs per serving or 18%. If incorporated properly, it most certainly can be used in a low carb diet. A tablespoon or so with lowfat cottage cheese is a great before bed high protein source.
