What You Should Know

You'd find this jar in the peanut-butter aisle or natural foods section, pulled out for sandwiches, toast, or a quick snack on the go. It feels nostalgic and mildly indulgent—sweetened with organic honey and cane sugar and marketed as a wholesome upgrade to standard peanut butter. The spreadable, stable texture comes from added oils (peanut and palm), a sign of processed manufacturing rather than a single-ingredient whole-nut product.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:3 / 4

Processed Food

Why this score?

This is a processed (NOVA 3) food: whole peanuts with added sugar and oils to alter flavor and texture. It lacks the extensive list of industrial additives and formulations typical of ultraprocessed (NOVA 4) products but is more than a minimally processed single-ingredient food.
