I just saw someone talking about PB2 a powdered peanut butter on another forum (not Zone). I looked it up and it's a mix with water kind of deal.

Then I looked at the nutritional info:

Total fat 1.9g 3%
Saturated fat 0.3g 0%
Trans fat 0g
Cholesterol 0mg 0%
Sodium 77.6mg 3%
Total carbohydrate 3.4g 1%
Dietary fiber 0.5g 0%
Sugars 1.7g
Protein 6g

Seems like a decent way to add some protein to a meal or snack if you try to balance the grams.

Looks interesting, I will have to do some investigating.

I was on a low carb diet before going back on Zone. Everyone raved about this product, although I never ordered it personally.

Well Cran, our 21 yr old son was just asking why we don't buy peanut butter. So for him, and to give it a try, I just ordered the minimum 4-pack. I'll let you know how it tastes when we receive them.

Oh Good! Thanks!

Hey guys -- I actually have this stuff. It's not bad, but it seems like I have to really use a lot of the powder in order to get a decent amount of "peanut butter" out of it. I'm thinking it may be a good ingredient in a recipe that calls for peanut butter, but on it's own, it just doesn't do it for me. I have both the "regular" PB and the chocolate PB flavors.

Let me know what you think of it!

They actually have a lot of recipes, not just straight up peanut butter. The chocolate PB however has less protein and more carbs, but I'm sure quite tasty!

Well, after two weeks of waiting, one unanswered e-mail to Customer Service, and finally, today after finding their 'hidden' phone number on their web site - a phone inquiry as to: where my order is, when it was or will be shipped. The rep answering the phone informed me that they are out of product and will not be shipping until the end of March. So I asked for a refund. (Many won't charge until product ships, apparently they charge immediately even if out of product!) So no trial here at our household for a while.

P.S.> ADDED: I ordered directly from Bell Plantation, their web site . . .

Just curious, where did you order from? Netrition carries it, but they state that is is currently on back order.

Directly from Bell Plantation!
That must be why it is on back order at Netrition...
