WIN-It-Wednesday: Better N’ Peanut Butter
Let’s get down to the basics. Peanut butter is good, and it’s good for you – but it has way too many calories and fat for a gal like me to eat every day.
That’s why I am more than thrilled to have found a new and improved alternative… Better N’ Peanut Butter.
Better N’ Peanut Butter is gluten-free, dairy-free, and contains no cholesterol or trans or saturated fats.
Better yet … it has 85% less fat and 40% less calories than regular peanut butter.
The three varieties that Better N’ Peanut Butter comes in is: Original (with less than 3 grams of fat per serving vs. regular peanut butter that has 16 grams of fat), Low-Sodium (w
ith 95 mg of sodium per serving), and Chocolate (a unique rich & creamy blend of chocolate & peanut butter that, believe it or not, still has 85% less fat and 40% fewer calories than regular peanut butter! Yummy!)
Better N’ Peanut Butter is just what a gluten-free gal like me needs, especially when bathing suit season is just a few short months away.
Any way you spread it, Better N’ Peanut Butter is just plain better.
That is why I am happy to report that Better N’ Peanut Butter is this week’s WIN-It-Wednesday sponsor on BeFreeForMe. Two (yes 2!) LUCKY BeFreeForMe members will win a variety pack of Better N’ Peanut Butters (one of each flavor).
How can you win?
Easy?

OH!!! I love Better N Peanut Butter, it is the only kind I eat. I have never tried the chocolate though! 🙂 I stay in shape by walking my doggies everyday, taking an adult ballet class, gardening, swimming, and moving throughout the day! Thanks for the awesome giveaway and for the great review of a wonderful product! 🙂
March 31st, 2010 at 7:11 am
I stay in shape by power walking.I use my treadmill in the winter and walk outside in the summer. For a healthy snack I like peanut butter on celery.
March 31st, 2010 at 8:21 am
I enjoy peanut butter almost every morning for breakfast. As for staying in shape, I find pushing a quad stroller (I have a home daycare) while going for walks is my work out.
March 31st, 2010 at 8:33 am
Keeping in shape – I go to the gym with a workout buddy to make sure I actually get there!
Peanut butter – I love it on celery sticks!
March 31st, 2010 at 9:16 am
Favorite use for peanut butter = gluten free granola bars. To stay in shape, I only watch TV when I am working out. I have a DVR in my workout room, so I can save up all of my favorite shows. No commercials too!
March 31st, 2010 at 9:31 am
With all the beautiful weather we have been having, I am trying to get outside and walk to get in better shape. I love peanut butter! I found a new gluten free peanut butter, oatmeal, chocolate chip cookie recipe that is awesome and I also enjoy making Chex Muddie Buddies.
March 31st, 2010 at 10:19 am
I WORKOUT EVERYDAY WITH THE EASPORTS WII GAME. FULL BODY WORKOUT
March 31st, 2010 at 10:20 am
I watch the biggest loser and see what tips they have on the show. 🙂
March 31st, 2010 at 10:40 am
There are many shapes–mine happens to be round. It’s not a hard shape to maintain, unfortunately. I would welcome a healthy alternative to one of my favorite foods, peanut butter.
March 31st, 2010 at 10:48 am
I try to go on a walk with my husband and dog each night!
March 31st, 2010 at 11:05 am
I walk to stay in sahpe and love peanut butter right out of the jar!
March 31st, 2010 at 11:33 am
Running my dog around keeps me active, and we both like PB on a spoon. 🙂
March 31st, 2010 at 12:06 pm
Can’t wait to try this peanut butter – on celery, apples, or with a spoon straight out of the jar!
To stay in shape, I walk a lot with my dog. I also find it important to limit processed food intake, shopping mainly in the outside perimeter of the grocery store – fresh produce, meat, and a little dairy.
March 31st, 2010 at 12:57 pm
I stay in shape by running nearly every day. I like peanut butter straight out of the jar. I like Better N’ Peanut Butter but have not tried the chocolate.
March 31st, 2010 at 4:32 pm
I walk outside, or in bad weather I have an exercise bike. I love having peanut butter on toast or pancakes to have protein with breakfast!
March 31st, 2010 at 4:58 pm
I enjoy walking outside, when the weather is warm, and I like my peanut butter, in a sandwich with apple jelly.
March 31st, 2010 at 6:47 pm
To stay in shape I go to Curves 5 days a week. I like peanut butter on rice cakes with jelly or jam.
March 31st, 2010 at 7:41 pm
I live in the country and walk everyday unless of course its pouring cats and dogs. Than I lift weights or do the rebounder. My inspiration is my 23 yr old daughter who’s lost 55 pounds in the last year and still working on losing the rest! She rocks!! And I can’t believe how good she looks now!! I love peanut butter right out of the jar or on apples slices from our yard when they are in season.
April 1st, 2010 at 9:34 am
I stay in shape by dancing with my girls. We enjoy peanut butter on gluten free pretzel sticks.
April 1st, 2010 at 12:34 pm
I read labels. So many GF items are loaded with sugar and / or fat. This is an awesome product.
April 2nd, 2010 at 7:39 am
I stay in shape by chasing after my 4 children! They keep me super busy with all of their activities, plus, the littlest one is a climber!! The girls enjoy peanut butter on a spoon, and I like to eat it on my favorite GF brown rice cakes. Delicious!!
April 2nd, 2010 at 11:12 am
Oh yum! This sounds heavenly. I have never tried it but sounds wonderful since I’ve been trying to lose weight and this would be a good food addition
April 2nd, 2010 at 11:26 am
I am trying to get outside to walk everyday. Otherwise I tend to use fitness games for the Wii. I love dipping apple slices into peanut butter.
April 4th, 2010 at 1:14 am
I love my peanut butter on a warm corn tortilla or a brown rice cake topped with blueberry jam.
April 5th, 2010 at 1:39 pm
I stay in shape by getting up early 5 a.m. no matter what and get on my eliptical trainer for an hour and watch the sunrise. Before and after I exercise, I enjoy my gluten free toast with Benecol margarine and strawberry jam. Then I go forward to enjoy the day!
April 5th, 2010 at 1:40 pm
P.S. I wish I had some peanut butter to put on my gluten free toast! I didn’t know they made any gluten free peanut butter!
April 6th, 2010 at 4:38 am
I put peanut butter in my smoothie every morning – it’s a great, and tasty, way to start my day!
April 6th, 2010 at 4:50 am
I like to stay in shape by walking with my dog. Plus, I take care of my grandmother who has me on the go. I enjoy eating peanutbutter with my grandmother while, she tells me so many great stories from her life!
April 6th, 2010 at 5:02 am
I try to stay in shape by walking, and I like to have my peanut butter with crackers.
April 6th, 2010 at 5:47 am
To stay in shape I eat low fat or reduced fat foods, take my vitamins, try to get a good night’s sleep, and walk when I feel like it. 🙂
April 6th, 2010 at 7:43 am
We try to go for walks as a family to stay in shape and get everyone involved
April 6th, 2010 at 7:53 am
My bestfriend got me a bender ball for my birthday. ONG that thing makes your abs shake. I have never done any ab work out that works so well and so fast. I don’t have a 6 pack yet but I’m gettign there lol I also do ABS Yoga for Beginners. I like the yoga DVD because it not only works abs but it stretches you and works your legs. I also try to walk as much as possible. Even if it’s just around the corner. I love peanut butter on green apples. Odd I know but it’s something I was given in pre school and it’s been a favorite since then.
April 6th, 2010 at 8:38 am
I like to do my exercise in the morning. Then I like to have peanut butter with jelly on toasted round roll, or I put peanut butter on a banana. It would be great to have a better healthier peanut butter.
April 6th, 2010 at 8:56 am
Even our puppies love peanut butter…can’t make a sandwich without sharing with them! 😀
April 6th, 2010 at 8:57 am
I do Yoga, with my husband every other day and I have rediscovered my bike.
And I am trying to keep a smile on my face for what ever is thrown at me!
April 6th, 2010 at 9:43 am
I walk to my childrens’ school, even when their dad (ex-h) takes them, so I can say “Good morning!” and still get a good walk/run in!! The girls and I love to make “Ants on a log,” where you take celery sticks, put peanut butter in the middle, and then sprinkle raisins or dried cranberries on them, like ants!!
April 6th, 2010 at 9:55 am
Running after my two year old keeps me in shape and i love peanut butter on prunes very good
April 6th, 2010 at 10:10 am
I love peanut butter and great to know I don’t have to do without anymore. I enjoy peanut butter with apple and celery. To Keep in shape I try to let the weather dictate my day. The treadmill is a great rainy and cold day workout but beautiful sunny days I like to hit the trails for a good all terrain workout.
April 6th, 2010 at 10:23 am
I am really looking forward to trying this peanut butter. I stay in shape by integrating everyday life activities into my work-out. We live in a small town so I walk everywhere or take my bike to do my errands, shopping etc. I also have a large garden and yard which also keeps me busy maintaining it.
April 6th, 2010 at 10:24 am
I keep up with my five kids every day! Plus peanut butter is a huge favorite of everyone.
April 6th, 2010 at 10:38 am
I allow myself to read a good novel (like one by Luanne Rice) ONLY when I’m riding my stationary bike. I’m always wanting to read more, so it gets me on the bike every day. As for peanut butter, I enjoy it on rice cakes for breakfast….gives me more energy than cereal.
April 6th, 2010 at 11:09 am
I stick to staying in shape by doing only those physical activities I enjoy and by diversifying them to maintain my interest, ie. run in nice weather, spin or cardio class at other times, yoga to relax,stretch and de-stress, treadmill or gym workout inbetween. It depends on what mood I’m in.
I enjoy peanut butter the most right out of the jar in its full flavor. But a favorite snack is peanut butter, fruit preserves and a banana on a warmed corn tortilla. Yum!
April 6th, 2010 at 11:14 am
I stay in shape by playinig with my Wii; and I llllooove my peanut butter straight out of the jar, all I need is a spoon. :]
April 6th, 2010 at 11:16 am
To keep in shape I do a 40 minute routine of cardio, lower and upper body, then core and flexibility training. When I’m done I’m SO ready for something delicious to recover. I like to use peanut butter in smoothies with a banana and some protein powder…oh so yummy and good for you too. Sometimes I’ll make it with some instant coffee to add a little boost. You can’t beat it.
April 6th, 2010 at 11:24 am
I love peanut butter on my apples. Gardening helps me stay in shape!
April 6th, 2010 at 11:52 am
I love peanut butter and bananas
April 6th, 2010 at 1:16 pm
I love Peanut Butter. I eat it right from the jar. I sometimes put the jar in the refrigerator because I like it cold. Peanut Butter is my favorite all time food. I bought some Amish Peanut Butter last year in Arthur, IL. Of course it was great but they also put marshamallow creme in their peanut butter. I am a walker and try to walk every day at least once or twice a day. I also have a treadmill but when warm weather, sun is shining forget the treadmill. I would rather be outside walking, seeing the scenery, getting the sun and fresh air.
April 6th, 2010 at 2:31 pm
My girlfriend and I walk three times a week for about an hour to an hour and a half. Before I go I always scoop some Peanut Butter into a little zippered bag and snip a tiny bit off of one corner. (I fold the corner over with tape so It doesn’t squish out.) As we’re walking I squeeze out a little and let it stick to the roof of my mouth so I can ‘savour ‘it while we walk. The PB is always gone by the time I get home; but you can bet I turn that bag inside out , just to get the very last lick! 😉
April 6th, 2010 at 3:37 pm
I walk on my treadmill, and love peanut butter & honey on whole wheat toast, or celery, apples, rice cakes and by the spoon full 😉
April 6th, 2010 at 3:52 pm
I walk as often as I can. Use the stairs in my house when raining out. I try to eat as healthy as I can.
April 6th, 2010 at 5:28 pm
This may sound terrible and I wouldn’t have ever tried it myself, except for the fact that my hubby has excellent taste. Peanut butter and kosher dill pickle sandwiches! Seriously, don’t knock it till ya try it and y’all know you’ve eaten some pretty iffy stuff on your way to being healthier. I’d love to hear back from people who really do give it a shot.
April 6th, 2010 at 6:53 pm
Since Spring has just arrived and I love to work in flowers and a vegetable garden, I get a lot of exercise just doing things that I love doing. There are truly a lot of different exercises you will be doing. You will use a lot of your muscles. I love peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.
April 6th, 2010 at 8:39 pm
Didn’t know there was gluten free peanut butter. Anxious to try it.
I love peanut butter in my oatmeal that I eat every morning.
I turn 82 this Thursday & I still walk 1 hour practically every day on my treadmill & that’s how I stay in shape.

I will watch for this peanut butter. Had no idea it was out there. Will certainly want to try it someday.
