PB and Bananas

[young guns]

about natty PB, do most people drain all the oil from the top of the jar when they first open it, or mix it into the PB (smuckers says to do this on the jar)?

mix it in. peanuts are high in monounsaturated fats. if you dump off the oil you lose alot of the healthy fats. not to mention the PB will be like clay once you refrigerate it.

thanks, young guns.

here's a PB machine on e-bay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2359015833&category=20685

i think it's worth it because natty PB is expensive, whereas raw peanuts cost, well, peanuts .

i suppose one can make it in a blender too.

I eat bananas, PB, and oat bread daily. Bulking's going good.

i was doing the same except eating whole wheat instead of oat bread. but i'm giving bulking a shot without combining fat and carbs so that's pretty much eliminated natty PB from my diet lately. still eat a banana every couple days. never hurts to get that potassium. as for the bread, well it's still in the diet.
