What it is

Peanut butter is a food paste made primarily from dry-roasted peanuts, which are ground until they reach a smooth or chunky consistency. It is a popular spread and ingredient derived from a legume, not a tree nut.

Why it's used

Peanut butter is used as a spread on bread and crackers, as an ingredient in baked goods like cookies and bars, and in candies and sauces. Manufacturers use it for its rich flavor, creamy texture, and protein content.

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. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated peanuts and peanut products.

Allergen info

Peanuts are one of the 9 major allergens identified by the FDA. Peanut butter is derived from peanuts and is a significant allergen for many individuals.
