And toffee flavored peanut butter had to be the bomb, right?<\/p>\n<p>Not so much.<\/p>\n<p>I have no need to recap each of the peanut butters because I can just easily say that I did not like them.\u00a0 At all.\u00a0 They didn&#8217;t taste like peanut butter and the texture was gritty and grossed me out a little bit.\u00a0 Both of the butter toffee flavors didn&#8217;t even taste like butter toffee and the chocolate version didn&#8217;t seem like there was any chocolate in it.<\/p>\n<p>Scott who doesn&#8217;t even like toffee was okay with these two peanut butters.\u00a0 He says they aren&#8217;t great and that the texture is indeed weird but to him they are edible.\u00a0 He has a small spoonful with his oats or oat bran in the mornings.\u00a0 Neither of us liked the honey roasted cinnamon and sadly had to throw that away.<\/p>\n<p>I begrudgingly tried the almond butter to be a good foodie.\u00a0 I already decided in my head that I wasn&#8217;t going to like it.\u00a0 I don&#8217;t like almond butter anyway and vanilla?\u00a0 What kind of generic flavor is that?<\/p>\n<p>I could not have been more wrong.\u00a0 This stuff is flat out amazing!\u00a0 I keep referring to it as my liquid crack because I could easily eat the entire jar in one sitting.\u00a0 It tastes like the perfect kind of icing or the perfect sugar cookie.\u00a0 It is smooth and creamy unlike it&#8217;s peanut butter cousins which are gritty icky.\u00a0 It has just a touch of sweetness and a hint of vanilla that isn&#8217;t over powering or fake tasting.\u00a0 Perfect for me because I&#8217;m not a big sweets person.<\/p>\n<p>This almond butter blew me away and as of right now, is the only almond butter I&#8217;ll eat.\u00a0 I love it so much that I asked a local grocery store to please start carrying it because I couldn&#8217;t find it anywhere!\u00a0 <a href=\"http:\/\/thehillsmarket.typepad.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">The Hills Market<\/a> said they would gladly start carrying it and now I&#8217;ve got my own almond butter crack supplier.\u00a0 I can buy big 15oz jars of it anytime I want! Score!<\/p>\n<p>Even though this company is manufactured by our neighbors in Michigan, it is really hard to find their products.\u00a0 You can buy the product straight from the source which is great!\u00a0 I highly recommend trying the vanilla almond butter, especially if you&#8217;ve never had almond butter before.\u00a0 I think you&#8217;ll be pleasantly surprised.\u00a0 I know a lot of people who like the peanut butter flavors but they were not popular in our house, so that&#8217;s totally your call.<\/p>\n<p>If you do try some, let me know what you think!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At the end of last year (2008 ), I won a giveaway on Bobbi&#8217;s site for some Naturally Nutty Nut Butters.\u00a0 I was totally blown away when the package arrived because I got four samples of their nut butters: Chocolate Butter Toffee Peanut Butter Vanilla Almond Butter Honey Roasted Cinnamon Peanut Butter Butter Toffee Peanut [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"spay_email":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false,"jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p4KYWa-1Cy","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6234"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6234"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6234\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6234"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6234"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6234"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
