PB2 GIVEAWAY!


*Note: I am not affiliated with PB2 or bell plantation in anyway. I purchased this product on my own and this is my honest opinion developed through my personal experience.


PB2 has been floating around in the food blog world for awhile and I have never tried it until now!


PB2 is powder that you actually just mix with water. You can add more or less water depending on desired consistency of PB. I mixed up a thinner mix as a “PB syrup” for my pancakes.



The ingredient list includes only 3 ingredients: Roasted peanuts, sugar and salt.

The Nutrition Facts are friendly also, especially for those who can get carried away easily with nut butters!
2 tbsp. only has 45 Calories compared to an all natural PB that has 200 calories.


SAVOR THE SECRET OF PB2
“Superior quality peanuts are first slow roasted then pressed to remove the fat and oil. The result is an exquisitely natural roasted peanut butter flavor that’s deliciously rich in taste, easy to enjoy and wonderfully healthy.”


I had some “syrup” left over and mixed in just a little more powder to make it a little thicker and keep it in the fridge for quick future use.

The PB2 blends quickly and easily. I like the taste, but it doesn’t have that “stick to the top of your mouth” thing. It goes down the hatch smooth and easy. I still actually prefer the thickness and taste of natural pb better. But for a lower calorie PB it is light and perfect.

I like the fact that there is only 3 ingredients!

It goes well in shakes, mixed in your oatmeal, on sandwiches, celery. Really anything!

I purchased an extra jar of PB2 to giveaway to ONE lucky reader!

All you have to do is post a comment stating what your favorite way to eat PB! Even if its STRAIGHT from the jar.

The Giveaway will close March 21, 2012. Winner will be selected through random.org.


READY GO!!
