Hmmm—you find the most interesting things!
I, too, am not particularly trying to avoid the good fats, yet I do find the concept intriguing for when you want to boost protein without the extra fat. Will have to give it a try!
Still need to come across some Chia seeds… I don’t know why I seem to be incapable of ordering online, but I for some reason I need to see the stuff in a store before I go for it. Actually, it’s just laziness I think.

It is FAR better, Crabby, not to do the internet order.
I can vouch for the chia but have gotten some NASTY stuff in the name of ‘ooooh, that looks *tasty* on my screen!’
We (the royal. the bumbling band.) are revisiting Chia next week.
I’ve foundulated (found + formulated. G-d forbid I follow a recipe to the letter) a couple of ways to make the seeds more palatable (for when you track em down)!

I’ve also been hesitant to try it as I use a raw almond butter and a natural peanut butter mix. I wasn’t sure if the PB2 would be nutritionally “worth it” but maybe I’ll give it a try!

I’ve never heard of PB2. Thanks for the post about it…it looks like a healthy peanut butter substitute. I probably won’t do away with regular peanut butter entirely because one of my favorite weekend snacks is peanut butter on toast. Yum! But I like the idea of having something that’s in a powdered form…and the recipes on the PB2 website look yummy. If only it were available at a store near me…looks like I’m going to have to order.

duly noted.

Hmmm. Why would one want to eat peanut butter without the fat? That’s the good part of the peanut butter - all those mono- and poly-unsaturated fats. On that note though, I usually choose cashew or almond butter (or raw nuts) rather than peanuts or peanut butter. It’s that whole overabundance of Omega-6’s in our diet.
I’m with Crabby about the Chia. Still dying to try it. Still too lazy to find it online!
May 12th, 2008 at 7:05 am
Charlotte,
I miss the fat (and just plop it in myself mostly) but adore this for a quick stirring in (oatmeal, shakes/smoothies, thai noodles, baking) AND for travel.
And life.
You KNOW there is always a jar in my trunk
(I’m so excited about one chia tip I’ve learned. Testing today. Sharing next week!)

Intriguing. I’m possibly the most ardent lover of peanut butter that has ever lived, so the idea of powdered PB is a bit blasphemous to me. But I’m willing to give the pancakes a try…
May 12th, 2008 at 7:54 am
I hear you, Jen.
I was amazed at how good it was (& thankful as I’d ordered a four pack).

Very cool. But I love the smooth texture of peanut butter- I think I would be saddened by eating a powdered peanut butter. Even so I think this is something that I’d like to give a try!
May 12th, 2008 at 8:43 am
I will have to give this a try! Thanks!
May 12th, 2008 at 9:01 am
Hmmm…this sounds interesting! I love peanut butter, so this might be a nice alternative for making shakes and things.
May 12th, 2008 at 9:48 am
Wow..this does look very interesting! Hmmm…might have to give it a try! (Also plan to try that Almost Cake recipe)
Thanks MizFit!

Dried peanut butter sounds delightful!
May 12th, 2008 at 12:51 pm
So even though this goes through quite a bit of processing, it still fits with the eating clean thing? I imagine it adds a great flavor to oatmeal!
May 12th, 2008 at 3:13 pm
ann?
it does and it is.

I’m one of those who have not heard of PB2, so thanks for getting me up-to-date.
AND now I know what those Protein Almost Cakes are!
I would so try them.
May 12th, 2008 at 7:26 pm
Ok, I’ve tried PB2, and I swear I’m the only person in the U.S. who doesn’t like this stuff. I love peanut butter, and this stuff just doesn’t measure up to me. Any hints to making it better?
May 13th, 2008 at 2:57 am
Never heard of powdered PB before. Sounds interesting. I eat organic crunchy PB, and have made some of my own, and the taste is fabulous. I love the MUFAs in the PB, as this is one of my fave ways to get them.
May 13th, 2008 at 9:48 am
It also has sugar added, though, right? I was thinking it would be good for smoothies to add the pb flavor, but the sugar kind of turns me off.
May 13th, 2008 at 8:51 pm
So crazy! I’ve never heard of powdered peanut butter…I bet it would be good.
May 17th, 2008 at 1:00 pm
just bought some PB2 and was so eager to try it I opened it and dumped some into what was left of my berry smoothie, what resulted was a PB&J smoothie delight. Sheer love of the PB2 here. It is def more peanutty than regular PB but I really like that. It is officially my new smoothie additive!
