HEB has fresh ground nut butters. One minute its peanuts, then boom - its peanut butter. The texture is between crunchy and smooth, and seems just about right.

JIF all the way for me! I like that it's a bit sweeter. Peter Pan is a close second, but I think that's almost too sweet.

Is there a back story on "lemonbunny".. Cool handle.

Thanks! I wish I could say there was awesome story to go with my name choice, but there is none. I like lemony things, and picked a random animal, thus creating, lemonbunny.

Ok, you had to go there. I was exercising restraint.  I love peanut butter. I like almond butter, great for some things.

The term nut butter is just wrong, no matter the variety.

goobers got its own category

Teddie peanut butter all day

I chose my words carefully...  then waited to see who would be the first

but c’mon... it’s so much fun to say nut butter

you know how they look at tree rings and analyze what the weather was like years ago?  when aliens take a look at my cross section, they'll say "damn how many years did this dude survive on peanut butter? remarkable!"  (it'll sound like meep meep moop meep peanut butter)

Skippy when I was a kid. Jif chunky for the last few decades.

Have tried various brands over the years just to see what I might be missing but keep returning to Jif.

Hate the "all natural" brands - I'm too lazy to have to stir my peanut butter before each use to remix the separating oil.

EDIT

Was curious what the article said - here's the link in case anyone else cares to read it:

https://www.syracuse.com/best-of-cny/2019/09/whats-the-best-peanut-butter-we-tasted-45-varieties-to-find-out.html

Anybody tried the "whipped" peanut butters? Didn't know that was a thing.

I've never seen this with the fresh ground peanut butter from the store. The oil doesn't separate, no matter how long its been sitting around. I wonder why.

Jif is what we buy. I was afraid the chosen winner was going to be one of those all natural, non gmo brands.

I have a friend from my music forums, named "Bunny" (he did a lot of the backing music for the Guitar Player (or something) video games.  Great guy.
 
You need to listen to one of his better tunes:
