What it is

Peanut butter is a food paste made primarily from dry-roasted peanuts, which are then ground until they reach a consistency similar to butter. It can be smooth or chunky depending on how long the peanuts are ground. "Organic" means it is made from peanuts grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers.

Why it's used

Peanut butter is often used as a spread on bread, crackers, and fruit. Manufacturers also add it to baked goods, energy bars, and smoothies for its flavor, protein, and fat content. It can act as a binder and contribute to the texture of food products.

Health notes

Peanut butter is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. It is a good source of protein, healthy fats, and various vitamins and minerals. While generally considered healthy in moderation, it is calorie-dense. JECFA has evaluated peanut butter and did not set a numeric limit (ADI not specified).

Allergen info

Peanut butter is derived from peanuts, which are one of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
