Someone else here will tell me I am wrong, but I think that nuts are supposed to be good for your bad cholestorol. PB is high in non-saturated fat, the good kind.

Now, how big a PB jar are we talking? - - natural or Skippy? Skippy adds sugar.

I am not an MD but I would think there are things that are a lot worse. It will make you fat long before it clogs your arteries IMHO.

First of all, you need to eat natural peanut butter without all the refined sugars in it. And two tablespoons are 16g of fat. So if there are about 16 servings, and you eat 1/4 of them, then you are eating about 60+ grams of fat a day just from peanut butter. But if it fits into your macro, well then what can i say...

What you eat this peanut butter with, or where your insulin level is when you ingest it, is of far more importance than the food itself.
