- Natural Peanut butter is supposed to be better for you. Natural ingredients, no artificial stuff or palm/soy oil. But is it going to be creamy good like Jif? The challenge has begun!

Lol, you didn't stir the natural peanut butter correctly. I'm sure by now you probably already know...but just in case you don't. You need to stir it from the bottom of the jar to pick up all the peanut butter, that's what will thicken it. Using a spoon works great because you can better scoop up everything and stirs better than a knife.
No offense motif, but when it comes to natural pb, I'm done stirring. I flipped it over overnight, stirred it every which way but loose lol. It still is what it is. Tastes good for smoothies, lousy for PB and J. Thanks for watching and always love the feedback!
I’m with motif
I buy it what you do is you turn the Smuckers upside down in the cupboard all night you wake up open it right side up stir it a little more and it will get a little creamier
Ok I'll give it one more go at it. Thanks for the tip!!
Hey tried it today after it was upside down for a few weeks. Consistency was good enough to spread on my bread. Seems like it has to be done each time because as I tried to stir it again it got super loose again. Thanks for the tip!!!
@@wonStarReviews Refrigerating the peanut butter helps prevent the oil from separating after stirring it. It also thickens after being refrigerated for awhile. Just had my first jar of real peanut butter, Laura Scudder, and it was very oily. I mixed it and it was still liquidy until after refrigerating a few days when it thickened. It didn't taste great at first, but it tasted much better almost halfway into the jar. I got the smooth and it has some little bits of peanuts in it which give it a good texture.
@@candysell good to know. I almost finished the jar, mostly using it for smoothies. It was too big of a hastle just for natural peanut butter.
Great tip!
$2.92!! Ha!!! Just bought in 2023 for $5.59
Thankfully I don't live in California!
$3.99 in my neck of the woods. But yeah, back before Bidenflation policies, roughly $3 per 16oz jar.
Thanks to inflation 😭
You really didn’t mix the oil in enough at all. If you mix the smuckers with a lot of force it would actually get thicker. Try it again bro.
I'll give it another shot. I don't have the biggest forearms but I was worn out mixing it. Thanks for watching!!
Natural peanut butter is tasty but we (I) have become accustomed to not having to stir it, just dig in and go. Stirring is tiresome 😅 plus we (I) don't want loose peanut butter on my saltine crackers.
Yes stirring is very tiring!!
I actually prefer this to jif and I grew up on jif, it's better for you even and no palm oil. It looks disgusting at first but after you mix it its really good
Jif is bad for you.
You are stirring a brand new can of natural peanut butter with a fucking plastic butter knife the good stuff at the bottom
mix it up
jif is just candied peanut butter
Yeah... So gooooood!!
I guess I must have some atypical taste buds for this comment section, because I absolutely love the taste of Smuckers peanut butter.😋 The hydrogenated, sugared peanut butters just lack enough actual 'peanutty' flavor for my preference. I'd probably like them better if they cut down on the amount of added sugar. One thing I'll note here is that I really didn't care much for peanut butter growing up as a kid. It wasn't until my late 20's that I began getting hooked on natural style peanut butters. Actually TOO hooked! It's a craving that I'm often challenged to resist. As far as consistency, it's already been mentioned in the comments, turn the jar upside down in the fridge. Also, I find it better to stir with a spoon.🥜 ✌
Wow late 20s? I was eating it as soon as I got teeth 😀
🛑 Natural Peanut 🥜 Butter Has to Be STIRRED WELL - Grab a butter Knife PUSHING IT ALL THE WAY TO THE BOTTOM - (NOT PLASTIC - it Will Break).
🛑DO NOT FOLLOW WHAT HE DID he didn't mix this JAR at all.
I usually buy Sam's natural peanut butter or Laura's Scudder's that's it 💞.
I grew up having to eat those other Processed ones.
Unfair test. Smuckers has to be totally mixed….. From the bottom up. Store one day upside down. Then open and mix it from the bottom. Your review here is not fair nor is it correct.
For it to be natural I actually like it and to know it's a more healthy option over jif this will definitely be my choice from now on (when i'm trying to be healthy)
As far as I'm concerned there is no contest. Smucker's natural is more healthy than palm oil any day!
I would have just dump the liquid out I don't know the point of the liquid anyway but can anyone tell me
So I get that the consistency isn’t the same, but does it taste similar to Jif Naturals?? J.M. Snickers is the manufacturer of both these peanut butters.
Not sure about naturals. Is it super runny like this? If so I would imagine the taste is similar
Maybe the Smuckers approach because it's Natural and most likely has no preservatives, you should Refrigerate this and it would be thicker as you spread this on your bread. One question though, how many people like Cold Peanut Butter on Buttered Warm toast? Thank you for your review.
Thanks for watching Chris!
Used the smuckers for the first time today. I could NOT get it all stirred up! It definitely isn't as sweet as there is no added sugar or sweeteners like molasses. We make a thing called peanut butter playdough, it's a semi healthy snack of dry milk, peanut butter, and honey. The kids love it, I did too as a kid (still do, who am I kidding?). Anyways, I usually use half a jar of JIF and I have a great consistency of "playdough" the kids can roll into balls then eat. I usually just mix it up in a container. I could not get the Smuckers to mix in well, I had to use my stand mixer to mix it! And the consistency still isn't right, and it's not as sweet. Definitely needs more honey than normal. I won't probably be buying the Smuckers again as my family of 8 are creatures of habit.
Thanks for sharing. It's good for smoothies but you can't really do much else with it unless you want your forearms sore😂
Hey Buddy you should try Teddy Peanut butter. It's a natural PB but much better than Smucker!!!
Kid is the all time best PB especially extra crunchy!
You did not stir the natural peanut butter enough .. use a knife & stir right to the bottom of the jar.. I love this stuff!
I imagine that's the case, but the amount of stirring wore me out. I mean you gotta really want it!
When I get the Smuckers, I make sure not to tilt the bottle on the way home. Once at home, I drain the oil on top into the engine crank.
Into your car????
HAHAHA HAHAHA LOL
😄
😂😂😂@@bryanmelton5538
IVE TRIED SOME NATURAL PB YUCK HAHAHA LOL ILL STICK WITH JIFF
Smuckers > JIF all the way. Tastes like peanuts? Check. Ultra creamy? Check. Healthier? Check. I love natural peanut butter like smuckers.
Edit: Also, you have to stir it ALL the way to the bottom for a few minutes. Just a tip
Going to buy a natural strictly for smoothies
The best peanut butter in my opinion is Woodstock Creamy Peanut Butter.
Never heard of it. I'll google it! Thanks for watching!
I enjoy watching! I noticed that you stirred it, but not to sound rude but you need to stir for about 5-10 minutes and all the way to the bottom of the jar. It should've been a lot thicker. If you put it in the fridge it won't separate.
I've been a fan of Jiff for years. I've learned about the not so good of the ingredients of it and decided to stop buying it. Moved on to the smuckers natural and it's pretty good I must say. Not as tasty as the Jiff, smuckers for me.
Thanks for sharing! it comes down to your belief system in what is going to be bad for you long term. Glad you were able to make a health move that you can live with!
Same company owns both.
Lol didn't know that. Makes sense though 😂 thanks!
Hate to tell you but it’s the same stuff I worked at the plant jiff has an all natural. Smuckers owns Jiff. Same peanuts same roasting process same PB sorry
Thanks for the info Shawn! In the end it's down to the sugar and how much processing they do to it.
You can go to winco and make your own peanut butter. Doesn't get anymore natural than that.
You have to stir it from the bottom for a while until it is mixed, man critique something when you don't have a clue what you doing
I really like the Smucker's wayyy better, it is creamy as heck taste so fresh and like peanut. JIF is like really stiff and taste weirder.
Taste wise I could live with the Smuckers especially with a smoothie. However it's not spreadable on bread so it's not very useable otherwise. Thanks for watching!!
@Some Guy understood but I don't think it would get to a jif-like consistency no matter how long I stirred it. If it's 5 minutes of elbow grease, then it's not worth it. I'd be finished eating by then😀 thanks for watching!!!
So I set a timer for 5 minutes tonight and stirred vigorously. Still came out like paint. I really want this to work, but goodness 5 straight minutes of stirring and no difference...
@Some Guy lol I gain nothing by filling you full of crap. I don't do this to impress any one. It's a hobby, not an endorsement for Jif and Skippy.
You have to get the bottom
You barely stirred it. Mix it up. Your review is flawed.
I stirred it until my forearms were tired. Too much work. On a side note turning it upside overnight did make it better but for me was only good for smoothies.
Smuckers has NO FLAVOR compared to Jif. I literally threw a brand new bottle in the trash went back to the store and got my Jif
Lol if u use it with jelly which has sugar in it it's epic
Your taste has adjusted to high sugar/salt content. The entire point of this product is *no* added sugar, salt, oil.
This is the worst comparison and Video I have ever seen I've been eating Smuckers natural for 5 years and never seen a jar that thin. It usually has oil on top for the first time stir it well to the bottom it gets thick and the next time I use it takes very little stirring and it has a very good flavor. It is what it says it is Natural without the terrible ingredients for your Health look up on UA-cam Wich one is healthier for you. Hands down Smuckers. Hope this helps you better than this terrible Video😊
I have smucker's natural in my hands , and is not like yours, I empty the oil on top and use it from frying, and the pb is very tick.
I guess if you empty the oil it will thicken up. I inverted the container but haven't tried it again. Maybe soon!
