Being an American brand, I was expecting it to be a lot sweeter. I'm surprised it was actually on the saltier side, which I actually really like.
Is this how American peanut butter usually is? If so, I can see why you'd want to combine it with jelly.

@dopey_kun@sakurajima.moe peanut butter is usually a salty / savory affair. Some brands add a little sugar never to the point of “desert” like Nutella, but I can’t stand those. PB kinda runs the gamut in quality so you have to try multiple brands.

@NullNowhere I just realized that I accidentally deleted the first sentence of my post, completely omitting the brand I was talking about (which was Skippy btw)

But that's interesting. I think I might like American style pb more. Filipino style is very sweet.
It's also oilier which makes it runny. I don't know if the peanuts we use are naturally oilier or if it has added oil. Our jar of Skippy is solid in room temp. Whereas our Filipino pb is completely liquid and runny.
No wonder I always see peanut butter in healthy recipes. Filipino pb is definitely not healthy

@dopey_kun@sakurajima.moe U.S. Peanut butter comes in two styles. "Stir" and "No stir". The no-stir stuff replaces some of the peanut oil with palm oil, which is solid at room temp. Skippy is this kind. I personally prefer the stir kind since I'm not a fan of palm oil. It's more runny and requires stirring, since the peanut oil will naturally separate over time.
