Making a peanut butter sandwich is just not as simple as it once was.
There's an explosion of new nut butters and chocolaty spreads in the peanut butter aisle, so adventurous eaters can pick one that features their favorite kind of nut.
Dieticians at The Wall Street Journal give these examples of products and uses:
Feeling organic?: Nuttzo's own Seven-Nut and Seed Butter.
The latte taste on bread: Barney Butter Vanilla Bean & Espresso.
If you don't mind green sandwiches: An SB&J of MaraNatha Sunflower Butter & Fig Jam.
For that tropical taste: Barney's Coconut Cocoa Almond Butter.
For cake lovers: Jif Chocolate Cheesecake.
Sinful snack: Jif Cookies 'N Cream.
Mature tastes: Barney's Honey Flax Almond Butter.
You love cookies? This spread is a butter made from cookies: Biscoff Cookie Butter.
Before choosing a spread, check the ingredient list to see how much sugar, fat and protein it contains.
Look for oil separation, which makes it more difficult to spread, but also indicates fewer added ingredients.
