Why use Natural Peanut Butter?

Natural peanut butter is healthier than regular or processed peanut butter because it does not contain any added sugars or oils.

Natural peanut butter is made with pure peanuts, so it contains more protein, vitamins, and minerals. It also has a nuttier flavor and a much better texture.
