Peanut Butter

Peanut Butter

Everyday

Peanut butter is a protein-rich spread made from ground roasted peanuts, valued for its combination of heart-healthy monounsaturated fats and dietary fiber. Available in creamy and crunchy textures, natural versions contain only peanuts and salt, while commercial varieties often incorporate added sugars or hydrogenated oils. This nutrient-dense staple provides sustained energy and is naturally gluten-free, though it remains one of the most common food allergens requiring dietary vigilance.
