I agree with your review. It's very good. But I might add, I think it may be(among other things) stalling my weight loss for now!

[ARCHER]

Geez, how much are you eating of it per day?, i eat mabey 2 tbs in the morning with a piece of Gluten bread, and a slice of blogna, for breakfest,
yes yes, lol i know blogna and peanutbutter sounds gross but its verry good, its an odd combination that works together,lol try it you'll like it, lol
it really sticks with you

I've only been eating 2 TBSP/day at most. I really don't know exactly what the problem is- I've also been eating some other Atkins products and the cold weather and snow has brought my walking to almost a total halt. I'm also eating a couple oz of cheese more than the limit. I don't know what is MOST responsible for the slow/stall, but I'm resolving to work on that.

So, I'm resolving to cut out the peanut butter for the most part, for now. I still have a lot of pounds I want to lose. It may not stall many people- it may not even be stalling me.

I won't even comment on the bologna with peanut butter. :water

I notice you are from Michigan, is Bolgna and Peanut Butter a midwestern thing? My father is originally from Illinois and he used to always eat fried bologna and peanut butter sandwiches (the bologna was fried, not the peanut butter).

ahhhhh common try it you'll like it, belive me its 200x better then all the experamental crap we have all tried that has had the low-carb label on it, lol
also peanut buter and bacon is also good together, lol i eat that also onlo-carb bread once in a while,

yes i agree peanutbutter and blogna, and peanut butter and bacon sound gross but they are both great, i have never had a person that actually tried them say that either was not good,.
do your self a favor try it lol

I guess I'm just used to Jiff......always have been (I don't mind the additional 1g net effective carb, it's worth it)

I also like the fact that, unlike the greedy corporations that feel the need to jack up the price of their low carb products, Jiff kept the price the same :righton

Now if only Smuckers would come out with a (reasonably) low carb jelly I'd be set.......I'm not that crazy about Fifty/50 (diabetic product) grape spread but it's the only way to eat a peanut butter and jelly sandwich until better com3es along

Dan check the lable on the Jiff, the one i have in the cubbard says
7g carb
2g fiber
3g sugar
= 8gm carbs = 2 tbs
skippy carb options
5gm carb
2g fiber
splenda
= 3gm net carbs = 2 tbs

[Dan Leithem]

are you SURE your looking at a jar of Simply Jif? it should have a white label and the word "Simply" in yellow above the name Jif

here's what mine says.....

Total Carb 6g
Dietary Fiber 2g
Sugars 2g
----------
6-2=4

so it would be 4g net effective per a 2 tablespoon serving, there's no Splenda in it but it tastes JUST like regular Jif

I'd sacrifice by eating an extra few carbs if it makes a difference in taste.......just like ketchup, I won't TOUCH the Atkins or the Walden farms....I'd rather eat the additional 3-4 carbs contained in normal ketchup and have my hamburger taste good (though it would be NICE if HJ Heinz would get their act together)

I'm not in induction so I'm allowed up to 45 carbs per day and I have yet to eat much more than 35g per day

[ARCHER]

DAN,
To count carbs you must add the sugar as atleast 1 carb each gm
so
total carbs 6g
fiber 2 g
= 4 gm carbs
add sugar + 2g
= 6gm net effective carbs
