Be aware, this contains palm oil.
The taste is good, it is shelf stable and it does not separate, but the name is somewhat misleading.
Most natural peanut butters contain one ingredient- peanuts. Some brands also add a touch of salt as a flavor enhancer. This product contains peanuts, sugar, palm oil, and salt. The palm oil is where I am disappointed. Skippy removes a portion of the peanut oil and replaces it with palm oil. The peanut oil can be sold for a substantial profit, so it is removed during processing and replaced with very inexpensive palm oil.

One of a Kind
The first reviewer wrote: "The flavor of this product is good. But peanut butter always tastes good. Skippy doesn't deserve credit for the fact that peanut butter tastes good."
She missed the whole point. This isn't just any peanut butter. Skippy has managed to produce a PB with no hydrogenated oils, while having no separation -- and it still tastes great. Try any other brand with no hydrogenated oils and you'll find that they actually don't taste very good, they have all the oil on top, and you have to keep them in the refrigerator. This Skippy product is a very unique peanut butter.
She admits it tastes good, yet instead of rating it highly, she only gave it one star because it's kosher. C'mon! Amazon should remove the review.

Yummy PB - less sugar! - and rebuttal on the Kosher thing
This Peanut butter is REALLY good. If you've been eating the high sugar PB's, it may take a minute to readjust your tongue. But, frankly, a PB that I don't have to stir!?! ROCK ON! Now for the Kosher thing, being Kosher is more than just "paying a Rabbi to bless the food." There are rules for how it is prepared (check out [...] for details). So, get over that and accept that Skippy took some extra steps, which, in the grand scheme of things, does not drive up the price of a jar of peanut butter!
