A year or so ago I came across a website for peanut butter while I was trying to find almond butter in New Zealand. My almond butter search was fruitless and I ended up making my own almond butter, but I did find my new favorite peanut butter.

Pic’s Really Good Peanut Butter was the site I stumbled across and despite wanting to try the peanut butter I couldn’t find it at my local stores. It was in my head but I couldn’t try it so I soon forgot.

Fast forward a year to my last move back to New Zealand and a wonderful thing happened: Pic’s started selling in my local supermarket! I finally saw the peanut butter there and though it cost twice as much as the other brands I decided to buy it to test.

AMAZING.

Things I Like About Pic’s Really Good Peanut Butter

• It’s a natural peanut butter (oil separation and everything!).
• There is no sugar or oil added.
• It has two ingredients: peanuts and salt.
• They sell it almost everywhere now. It’s much easier to find and buy especially being at my local supermarket.
• It tastes really good.

Things I Don’t Like About Pic’s Really Good Peanut Butter

• It costs a lot. It’s $7.29 for a jar compared to the cheap brands (half the price).
• We go through one jar a week.
• The prices are inconsistent between the online store, supermarket and farmers markets. (Farmers market sellers try to get $2-3 more a jar!)

Pic’s Really Good Peanut Butter Rating

★★★★★

(Yeah I’ve decided to start rating products I review. It basically means nothing but it’s fun.)

I personally think it’s worth the money to buy Pic’s. (Five stars!) We both love peanut butter and like to know that we are at least eating the healthiest peanut butter we can without any additives or things that aren’t good for us. Sure it would be more cost efficient to just make peanut butter ourselves, but Pic’s really is really good!
