A quid for peanut butter. Right, let's be realistic.
For a bit over a pound, you're not expecting Whole Earth. You're expecting something that does the job on toast at half seven in the morning without making you regret your choices. And honestly? This mostly delivers that. The crunch is proper, not that dusty, half-hearted crunch you get from some budget jars. There are actual peanut pieces in there. Good sign.
I spread some on a rice cake (yes, I know) after a run. Thick enough to not slide off immediately, salty enough to feel satisfying, and it didn't have that weird chalky aftertaste cheap peanut butters sometimes pick up. Not bad at all for the price.
Who it's for, and who should probably look elsewhere
If you're someone who eats peanut butter regularly, like several times a week, this is a no-brainer to try at this price point. Baking, post-gym toast, kids' sandwiches. It'll hold up fine for all of that.
If you're a peanut butter purist who wants single-ingredient, no added oil, no added sugar, then this isn't your jar. It does contain added salt and likely some stabiliser to keep the oils from separating, which is fairly standard at this price but worth knowing.
My one honest reservation: 340g goes faster than you think. You'll be reordering before the week's out. Still, at this price, that's barely a complaint. The HotUKDeals community clocked it early and gave it proper heat for a reason.
