\"I<\/a>

I <3 You<\/p><\/div>\n

I am a lover of PB<\/abbr>. I have always loved PB<\/abbr> ever since I was a kid and a PB<\/abbr> sandwich was a staple in my lunch growing up. Not PB<\/abbr>&J because not only do I find that a gross combo (ew!) but the jelly takes away from the PB<\/abbr> flavor too much. When I was a kid, I used to take the PB<\/abbr> jar and a bag of pretzels and dip. I was ahead of my time. ;) I have tried other “butters” but PB<\/abbr> is where my heart is at. I have a jar of almond butter sitting in my fridge that’s only been used twice. Sorry almond butter, you just don’t make the cut.<\/p>\n

You know what else I like with my PB<\/abbr>? Chocolate. I love that combination. When he was in courtin’ mode, Scott used to bring me PB<\/abbr> eggs when he would visit me at school. A sure fire way to my heart is bringing me some chocolate and PB<\/abbr> goodness. He scored points with that move!<\/p>\n

Despite the fact that I have a major love affair with PB<\/abbr>, I’ve never been interested in PB<\/abbr> flavors or mixes. Either they had too much sugar, oils, or it didn’t appeal to me. Why would I buy a honey flavored PB<\/abbr> when I could just add some honey to my own?<\/p>\n

I have seen other bloggers talk about a dark chocolate PB<\/abbr> that they have eaten but honestly, I never really paid attention to what they were saying (sorry bloggers!). It goes back to my non-interest in flavored PBs. If it was flavored I figured it was probably icky. During one of our many outings to the grocery store, I stumbled upon Peanut Butter & Co.’s Dark Chocolate Dreams.<\/p>\n

I stopped to check it out because I was in a major chocolate craving mode (ahem) and you could have knocked me over with a feather. All natural PB<\/abbr>! With dark chocolate! No crappy sugars, no HFCS<\/abbr>. No junk, just straight up real stuff. I bought some right quick.<\/p>\n

I tasted it as soon as I got it back home and fell in love. Head over heels, giddy, stupid-grin kind of love. It tasted exactly like all natural PB<\/abbr> with some chocolate added. Which is basically the description on the jar. Not overly sweet or sugary, which was my fear. Immediately I started incorporating it in my breakfast. I first had it on some Kashi waffles, yum! But typcially I eat a spoonful of it mixed in with my morning oats, as the daily eats<\/a> readers know. It’s a divine and perfect addition to my oats.<\/p>\n

Sadly, their products are pretty limited around my area. This is one of the few flavors that are around here. I would love to try some of their other flavors out as well and see what they are like.<\/p>\n

So if you happen to like chocolate and PB<\/abbr> but don’t want to give up the good all natural PBs, give this a try. You just might be surprised.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
