    Have you tried PB2, Powdered Peanut Butter?

    My boss at work brought in this powdered peanut butter the other day. I thought he was crazy, but it was actually really good. I am a huge pb fan but hate all the extra fat. What I like about this is that is 75% less fat calories without crazy yucky stuff in it (Ingredients include: Peanuts, salt, sugar (NO preservatives)). You can mix it with water (or directly with jelly) just don't eat it dry, ewy, and it will suck the water right out of you. Enjoy! I found it on bellplantation.com (ebay is twice as expensive).

    If you don't mix it with water, it will make your tongue stick to the back of your throat!

    Wow! That sounds nifty! Can you imagine the cooking and baking implications?

    A friend gave me a jar of this, but I haven't tried it yet. I've been saving it for hiking trips. I'm worried it will be messy to have to mix and stir it and clean the mixing container.
    Oil is good, grease is better.

    We just whipped it up in a bowl(couple of tsp of powder and a little water). Use a paper plate if you're really lazy. DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT let it dry to clean later. Only a hot water soak or jack hammer will get it off your plate. Trust me, though, it's tasty. LBTC, I gotta make some cookies as soon as my case (yeah, I just bought 10 jars) arrives. I will let you know how that goes. If it is any good, I could send you a jar (I will have a couple extra) And it is only a fair trade for all the butterflies you have given me.

    This is why you should always bring along a dog or two. They're not much good at mixing and measuring but as clean up crew they're champs!

    I haven't tried it yet, but my mom has raved about it - especially for baking. I think mixed into ice cream, vanilla yogurt, or a smoothie, it could be excellent. She has also used it to make ginger-peanut salad dressing (Asian). Mmmmmmm! She's coming to visit in April, and I think she's going to bring me a jar. I'll try to remember to report back!
