I do the majority of my grocery shopping at either Asda or Tesco, so regularly have the opportunity to try out branded products from both of these stores. It was whilst I was picking up a few items from a local branch of Tesco recently that I noticed the price of my usual purchase of peanut butter - namely, the Tesco's own label jar - had gone up quite significantly since the last time I purchased it, to around the £1.30 mark. I felt this was quite a big increase, so decided instead to purchase the Tesco Everyday Value brand of Peanut Butter, and this review outlines my experiences. The Tesco Everyday Value Crunchy Peanut Butter is available to purchase in ...  Read the complete review

Oh badgers bongos! What do you say about Peanut Butter? It's the kind of thing I always have handy to get my face into when I have an attack of (non drug related..honest) munchies. I tend to spoon it out with no finesse and eat it directly from the spoon. Gross though this sounds, I feel justified in this as no one else in the family eats peanut butter, it's mine, all mine! As anyone with children will know that's quite a feat. Having experienced more expensive butter in the past including some well known fairly expensive brands when we're talking the crunchy variety I honestly don't see a huge difference between this basic brand and the others. ...  Read the complete review

I absolutely adore peanut butter but I have been trying to watch my weight for a while so I have been abstaining from it, until recently when a diet and fitness expert recommended eating a tablespoon of peanut butter every day for protein and to keep the metabolism going. That's a good enough excuse for me! It always has to be crunchy for me, smooth peanut butter just feels like there's something missing. I've just got to have that crunch! I'm very skint right now as I sort of miscalculated how much my student grant was going to be for last year. Oops. So now I'm basically living extremely frugally, walking wherever I can up to three miles, and I ...  Read the complete review

I never seen the reason for buying more expensive Peanut Butter, but then again it always has been Sunpat that we had in the house. Not so long ago we started trying more budget brands as there really isn't any reason to keep buying expensive brand names when often cheaper is just as nice. So how was this? It was actually alright. This is a 340g jar which is pretty big for what it is. The other jars look much the same size as well. This was a good bit cheaper than the rest at 68p though. The jar isn't very pretty looking. You can see through the clear glass so see the light orange Butter. The lid is a large plastic lid and the label wrapped around the jar is ...  Read the complete review

Can I just start by saying I don't like peanut butter - not the cheap stuff, not the expensive stuff. So why, you might ask, am I reviewing the stuff? Well because firstly, my hubby does like it, and eats quite a lot of it, and secondly I like peanut butter cookies and satay sauce and other dishes that are made with peanut butter, so I do use it personally, just not as a spread on bread. This particular peanut butter is cheap. It comes in an ordinary jar with a plastic screw top lid, and the Tesco white with blue and red value label on it. It's not fancy looking, but to be honest as I've said many times before for value products, this really doesn't fuss ...  Read the complete review
