What You Should Know

You'd spot this jar in the peanut butter or spreads aisle or on a pantry shelf — a honey-sweet twist on classic peanut butter that calls to mind childhood sandwiches and after-school snacks. It reads nostalgic and indulgent, but the added powdered sugar (with cornstarch), honey powder and olive oil point to industrial blending for smooth texture and shelf stability, characteristic of an industrially formulated spread rather than a single-ingredient nut butter.
