When I asked about eating peanut butter, because it isa soft protien, my doctor recommended PB2 to add to shakes. Any takes on this?

imo, regular peanut butter has way too many calories for me. i use pb2 to flavor things, it's wonderful. i'm not a huge fan of it as regular peanut butter, although i haven't tried it that way in awhile, but i put pb2 in oatmeal, shakes, 'protein pancakes', etc. it's wonderful

I love PB2 and would take it ANY DAY over regular peanut butter. I mix it in vanilla chobani, yum!

 I've made it into peanut butter so I can have my apples dipped in it. Yes, the texture is a little different but to me the flavor is there without the fat. I'm not a fan of it in shakes tho

PB2 is great for adding to shakes, yogurt, etc. it's powdered peanut butter (consistency of flour), 85% less fat. You can add water to make it a paste but... it's not gonna satisfy a true peanut butter lover like that... you miss the fat and mouthfeel but it's great for somethings...

Some people add sweetener with the water they add to it, that might help.
