 Be aware, this contains palm oil. September 5, 2008
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
The taste is good, it is shelf stable and it does not separate, but the name is somewhat misleading.
Most natural peanut butters contain one ingredient- peanuts. Some brands also add a touch of salt as a flavor enhancer. This product contains peanuts, sugar, palm oil, and salt. The palm oil is where I am disappointed. Skippy removes a portion of the peanut oil and replaces it with palm oil. The peanut oil can be sold for a substantial profit, so it is removed during processing and replaced with very inexpensive palm oil.

The first reviewer wrote: "The flavor of this product is good. But peanut butter always tastes good. Skippy doesn't deserve credit for the fact that peanut butter tastes good."
She missed the whole point. This isn't just any peanut butter. Skippy has managed to produce a PB with no hydrogenated oils, while having no separation -- and it still tastes great. Try any other brand with no hydrogenated oils and you'll find that they actually don't taste very good, they have all the oil on top, and you have to keep them in the refrigerator. This Skippy product is a very unique peanut butter.
She admits it tastes good, yet instead of rating it highly, she only gave it one star because it's kosher. C'mon! Amazon should remove the review.
 Yummy PB - less sugar! - and rebuttal on the Kosher thing July 11, 2008
5 out of 6 found this review helpful
This Peanut butter is REALLY good. If you've been eating the high sugar PB's, it may take a minute to readjust your tongue. But, frankly, a PB that I don't have to stir!?! ROCK ON! Now for the Kosher thing, being Kosher is more than just "paying a Rabbi to bless the food." There are rules for how it is prepared (check out [...] for details). So, get over that and accept that Skippy took some extra steps, which, in the grand scheme of things, does not drive up the price of a jar of peanut butter!
Great No-trans fat peanut butter that doesn't separate July 7, 2008

I wrote a similar review for the creamy, but thought I would add one to the crunchy version. This PB rocks! Great taste and no hydrogenated oils. Doesn't separate! Much better than the natural stuff that's out there. My kids love it (while they hated the other natural stuff).
 Beware of kosher tax July 5, 2008

This product claims to be Natural.
But there is nothing natural about paying a rabbi to bless a jar of peanut butter. Skippy Natural is a kosher certified product, which means that the consumer is paying slightly extra to cover the rabbinical fees involved in the certification procedure.
Not all people want kosher products. Skippy should sell a non-kosher version of this product, for a reduced fee. But they don't.
For those who don't know:
In order to determine if a product has been certified kosher, just look at the product label. If you see the letter U with a circle around it, or the letter K with a circle around it (usually it is located somewhere near the product logo), then the product has been certified kosher.
You might be surprised to realize how many products in your cupboards have been certified kosher. When I first learned about this kosher tax/scam, I ran to my cupboards and began looking at labels. I found that nearly half of the products in my cupboards had been certified kosher.
The flavor of this product is good. But peanut butter always tastes good. Skippy doesn't deserve credit for the fact that peanut butter tastes good.
