Smooth Operator All Natural Peanut Butter by Peanut Butter & Co.

Today I would like to introduce you to the company called All Natural Peanut Butter & Co that has been in business since 1998. This wonderful company sells the most amazing peanut butter that I have ever tasted and so it is with my great pleasure that I get to talk to you about this company today.

All Natural Peanut Butter & Co. sells a variety of peanut butter in jars and squeeze packs along with various jams, jellies, marshmallow fluff, nuts & snacks, baking mixes and a variety of gift packs. Now when you think of peanut butter….think beyond just smooth and crunchy…think about Cinnamon Raisin Swirl Peanut Butter, White Chocolate Wonderful Peanut Butter, Dark Chocolate Dreams Peanut Butter or how about Mighty Maple Peanut Butter? Yes folks…this company sells a variety of peanut butters in some very delicious flavor combinations!!!

My Review: For this review I am featuring the Smooth Operator Natural Peanut Butter that the great folks at All Natural Peanut Butter & Co. sent to me to review. This is a very smooth and creamy style of peanut butter that has no Trans fats, no cholesterol and it is gluten-free. The first thing I made with this peanut butter was an old-fashioned peanut butter & raspberry jam sandwich and I loved how soft and creamy this peanut butter was. I didn’t have to “dig” it out of the jar with an axe pick…seriously folks, I have never seen a creamier or softer peanut butter than this one and I love that consistency! You immediately smell freshly roasted peanut butter as soon as you pop off the lid of the jar. When you taste this peanut butter…it has a very rich peanutty taste to it which is really nice. It made the perfect sandwich!

A few days later I decided to whip up a batch of no-bake chocolate oatmeal cookies and used this peanut butter to make that batch. Again…it was really easy to scoop out of the jar due to it’s soft consistency and it mixed beautifully up into my cookie batter. Once the cookies firmed up, I dug in for a taste test and WOWZA! I make this recipe pretty often for my family but this time…the cookies were extra delicious and I think that is because of this high quality delicious peanut butter!!!

Overall Impression: We absolutely LOVE the Smooth Operator All-Natural Peanut Butter! It is rich, creamy, soft, easily spreadable (without ripping up your bread), easy to use, tastes fresh and is delicious! We give it a huge 10 stars out of 10 stars on our rating scale and highly recommend this product and the company to you!
