non-peanut butter

[NbyNW]

Haven't tried the soy or the peas, but I'm a big fan of almond butter + raspberry jelly sandwiches.

sadly I don't like almond butter. It just doesn't taste right to me for some reason. Cashew butter's a bit better, but I still prefer peanut butter over both of them.

What's pumpkin or sunflower butter like?

I just can't imagine anything tasting anywhere near as perfect as real peanut butter. Though I just came upstairs from eating the "monster cookie" ice cream by archer farms/target, which is a peanut butter ice cream with stuff in it, and was thinking to myself how amazing foods with peanut butter are

If I ever have a kid with a peanut allergy I don't know how I could deal.

i found an almond butter where the almonds were roasted first. OH! that was good. Hazelnut butter is also good

I love almond butter, either raw or toasted. I'm not a big fan of sunflower butter, but some people really like it. Tahini - also raw or toasted - I think is best homemade, though I've never been able to get it to flow without adding a little extra sesame oil.

I love peanut butter - it is a comfort food

I have tried almond butter and sunflower butter - did not care for either of them. Have not tried cashew butter, will need to try that.

I am allergic to peanuts; hated the smell as a kid, started eating peanut butter in my early thirties, and developed the allergy in my mid thirties. I can be around it, touch it, with no ill effects, but can't eat it.
I didn't like any of the other "butters" until I found Simple soy nut butter. I saw a story about it on a local news show (it's made here in MA). It tastes pretty close to the real thing, although I sort of forget what peanut butter tastes like. I am finally able to bring a smooshed soy nut butter and jelly sandwich on long rides.

I think Justin's Almond Butter is the best!!! They make a maple almond butter that I have a really hard time keeping my spoon out of....

I love peanut butter too. And coconut butter which I can't have in the house as I can eat 1/2 a jar (if not more) in one sitting.

I like packets of justin's and barney butter - I keep them in my saddle pack and also at work to top their boring water+oatmeal they sell in the cafeteria.

OMG. Coconut butter! I can see where that would be very, very dangerous. Glad I've never seen any.

That sounds absolutely gorgeous!!

Whole Foods here does a hazelnut butter that I keep meaning to try.

Good thing I can't find that, or I'd be eating it out of the jar. (Maybe with some chocolate thrown in.)
