Yes I have tried natural peanut butters, but the one I tried didn't taste like Jif peanut butter with it's real roasted peanut taste. The natural peanut butter I had tasted like burnt peanuts. Simply Jif tastes like fresh roasted peanuts and it still as all the great taste as the regular Jif, but 33% less sugar and low in sodium.  Calories are still a bit high at 190 per two Tbsp. Fat Cal. 130 (I love thick peanut butter sandwiches on high fiber/flax seed bread so I will have to cut it down a bit). The Carbs are 6 grams  with 2 two grams of fiber that brings down the carbs to 4 grams for the carbs.  65 mg of Sodium, protein 8 grams, and sugar 2 grams.

I want to eat heathier, but I won't give up my Jif taste.  It's strange that my natural Smucker's peanut butter didn't taste as good as Jif because Jif is made by Smucker's.

Simply Jif is great on crackers, veggies, healthy bread or just from the spoon.  Yeah now we are talking :)

I can't tell the difference between simply Jif and regular Jif so that is a plus!

Peanut butter? To quote that great philosopher, Daryl Hall, "I can't go for that nooooo. no can do. I can't go for that, can't go for that....." Good job, though!
