Smart Balance Peanut Butter

I had seen the commercial for Smart Balance Omega Peanut Butter several times over the past few weeks, and had been wanting to try it, so the other night I picked some up. This stuff is pretty expensive. $3.99 for a small jar. I figured it's not really possible to mess up the taste of peanut butter, so it had to be good.

I was wrong. The Omega-3's come from flaxseed and palm fruit oil added to the peanut butter. This isn't so bad taken in pill form, but in peanut butter? Seriouly, why mix the two? For convenience? I don't know about you, but I can find 4 seconds during my day to swallow a couple pills. The peanut butter tastes OK until you swallow it. Then all you can taste is the funky oil taste. There's a reason these oils come in pill form- because they aren't very tasty.

I think it would be a lot cheaper and a hell of a lot better tasting to stick with peanuts and salt natural peanut butter and take your omega-3's in pill form! Some things just shouldn't be mixed.
