The Best Peanut Butter in the World

Maybe I'm biased because this cozy little sandwich shop is tucked away in Greenwich Village. Or maybe it's because they add white chocolate chunks to one of their peanut butter flavors and white chocolate is my absolute favorite candy. But I think that the Peanut Butter Company's homemade peanut butter is the best peanut butter in the world--hands down.

The Peanut Butter Company is not just a sandwich shop but almost an 'ode' to peanut butter. These people are seriously passionate about peanut butter. They boast a full menu with a variety of creative sandwiches like the Elvis (grilled peanut butter with honey and bananas), as well as a variety of peanut butter inspired milk shakes (Fluffernutter shake anyone?), and of course rich desserts like Death by Peanut Butter. I cannot imagine how much milk you'd need to wash that one down.

If you can't get to New York City to personally sample the Peanut Butter Company's offerings, you can request a catalog full of their unique products. One thing that I love about the Peanut Butter Company (besides the fact that they stick candy in their peanut butter) is that as far as peanut butter goes--this is healthy stuff! Their peanut butters contain no refined sugar or hydrogenated oil. Unfortunately, this doesn't mean it doesn't have serious calories. . .but you could always stick it on some celery right?

In any case, if you love peanut butter you have to get some of this stuff. They have six flavors ranging from your regular smooth and crunchy varieties to the very exotic "The Heat Is On" flavor which, as the name implies, is spicy. And since they really want you to buy their peanut butter (because once you do I guarantee, Jiff will never cut it again) they provide recipes on their website from time to time. So whether here in New York City or via the internet. . .pay the Peanut Butter Company a visit. (They also have a handy feature on their website where you can input your zip code and they can tell you whether or not their peanut butter is sold near you!)
