I don't remember how I heard about this stuff, but PB2 is an amazing product. Bell Plantation, makers of PB2, probably using lasers and anti-matter, have managed to remove the oil from peanuts, leaving just a powder. The cool part is that the powder smells and tastes just like peanuts, but with MUCH less fat and calories. Then, they add a little salt and sugar to make it taste just like peanut butter. But this is better peanut butter because it's only 45 calories for two tablespoons. For reference, two tablespoons of Reduced Fat JIF is 190 calories, four times as much!
You just take two tablespoons of powder and mix it with a tablespoon of water and you get a paste that spreads, smells, and tastes just like super-delicious peanut butter. Or, you can mix it right in with a tablespoon of your favorite sugar free preserves for 55 calories of scrumptiousness.
OK, where do you buy it? That's easy and not so easy. Chances are, it's not at your local grocer, at least not yet. I had to buy a jar of it for $6.99 + tax at a health food store/smoothie shop in downtown Seattle. You may be able to save yourself a little money by ordering direct from Bell Plantation's website. You will have to pay UPS shipping, so it's cheaper if you live near Georgia. It's also a little cheaper if you send it to a business address than a residential address, so you might want to send your delivery to work.
And, because I know you'll ask... yes, they have a chocolate version that's also 45 calories and it's kosher.
