    You can purchase it online, a co-worker has considered trying this. It WOULD provide a less fatty alternative to when the urge comes to start dipping stuff in peanut butter - or perhaps in sauces? I just happen to love peanut butter and it is pricy enough that I was afraid it would be wasted if I hated the taste...

    I got mine off Amazon, and I didn't think it was that expensive considering that it was dehydrated. Maybe $7 per jar?

    I did Made me smile!

    I like PB2 (or peanut flour, which you can sometimes find more cost-effective) is great for adding flavor to things like protein shakes (chocolate and PB) or homemade ice cream if you do not want additional fat. Peanut flour also makes some great baked goods if you need to be gluten free, because the extra protein helps replace the gluten (which is a protein.)

    My big thing is that I need that fat. I do better on a high-protein, high-ish fat, moderate carb diet. It keeps me from snacking all the time.
    And apple slices dipped in PB makes an awesome pre-ride snack.
    At least I don't leave slime trails.

    I don't eat peanuts anymore, but I did try the PB2 a few years back. It's OK. I was never a huge PB fan, so take this with a grain of salt.

    You can mix the PB2 with a little water and get a PB-like spread that is very peanuty in taste and decent in texture. It was great tossed into smoothies, oatmeal or sprinkled/mixed in to ice cream. I know there are a ton of PB2 recipes out there as well but I never made any of them. My PB2 jar (mostly full) just sat in my cabinet for years until I finally tossed it out when we went paleo.

    My latest go to after a ride is a smoothy consisting of plain greek yogurt, Banana flavored Chocolite protein powder, the chocolate PB2 and water

    On its own I'm not a huge fan but I do like it mixed into things.

    I keep running across people who love the PB2, and I learned at a party tonight where I can get it locally...I am going to have to try this I think.

    I bought a jar of PB2 when I lived in NC, made brownies with it once, and the rest eventually went bad b/c I just couldn't remember to use it. Mixing it into Greek yogurt is not something I thought of -- that would definitely work!
