Is It Clean?

                       Peanut Butter



                       CHECK THE LABEL FOR CLEAN INGREDIENTS


                       Finding a clean eating peanut butter can be tricky. The easiest
                       thing to do is check the label on the jar. Does it say organic? Does
                       it include only peanuts in the ingredients and perhaps a little bit of
                       salt? Conventional jarred peanut butter is often pumped with high-
                       fructose corn syrup, extra sodium, and hydrogenated oil, which
                       are unnecessary and actually destroy the wonderful fresh taste of
                       natural, ground peanuts. These days, you can more easily find clean
                       eating peanut butter at your local grocery store. Or better yet, turn to
                       the recipe for Creamy Natural Peanut Butter on page 306 and make
                       your own. And remember, other nutritious alternatives to peanut
                       butter are almond butter and cashew butter.
