what do you mean it’s mostly butter? even peanut butter with added oil/sugar/salt is still some 85% peanuts. Or do you mean simply that it had a high fat content?
Unsalted natural peanut butter is just roasted peanuts. Salted natural peanut butter is just peanuts and salt. The oil is just from the peanuts, not added.
No mix peanut butter is the same but with palm oil and usually whichever sweeteners are cheapest. Palm oil hardens at room temperature and keeps the peanut oil from separating.
Sounds like you’ve never been to a hippy store. They sometimes have machines that you pour the peanuts into and then you have some peanut butter. You can also have cashew butter, etc.
Many people really don’t understand how simple many processed foods are. “Taco flavoring” and ranch dressing packets are both literally 5¢ worth of herbs and/or spices any normal person already has at home.
I use peanut butter powder in my overnight oats. Imagine a peasant seeing all that work done just to remove nutritional content because I want to lose fat.

Can’t they make peanut butter where they don’t add anything at all? Like just peanuts?

The peanut butter I buy is 99% peanuts and 1% salt.
What I buy is 100% peanuts and no salt.

You can get the just peanuts stuff from any store. I think Adam’s is like that. It is the kind you have to stir the oil back in when you get it.
They do! But the oil separates and you have to stir it first. And it needs to be refrigerated after opening.
Convenience, whether it’s for the producer or consumer, got us again.
I make my own peanut butter because I like it extra roasty. It’s like 500g peanuts, a half teaspoon of salt.
That was the most surprising bit to me when I started making them too. You can make it with literally just blending peanuts and that’s it

they can, and some brands only make it like that, but others want peanut butter that doesn’t shift and so add other oils
Yes but it will separate and you need to stir it up to get all the layers mixed together
it’s literally what pb is.
Right, the high fat part.

Just think, genetically we are the same. Our biology has not caught up to the modern world we have constructed.
Oooh, j gotta try that. I bet that with a protein shake instead of milk goes hard.
