I came across this Barney Butter Almond Butter as I was shopping at Lowes Food (NC based grocery store) the other day. It was actually in a clearance bin that I was digging through. It was on clearance for $3.40 for the smaller 10 oz jar ( The regular price was $6.99. I figured, what the hell? and threw it in the cart. I used to love peanut butter but, I started noticing as I got older that I just can't stomach some of the foods I could eat as a kid. Every time I eat peanut butter now I get this crazy indigestion and stomach cramps (and by cramps I really mean that my ass is doubled over in stabbing pain!). So I have had to avoid it. No more PB sandwiches for me.
I had heard that Almond Butter was a healthier alternative to peanut butter (You can check out the website for all the fun facts and information). Upon opening the jar there was some oil that had separated from the butter. I believe this is common for natural nut butters. There are no preservatives or other unnatural substances like you would find in a store bought peanut butter. So just stir it up and move on. It had a pretty thick consistency. I spread it onto a piece of oatnut wheat bread. I took the first bite and OMG! it was wonderful. Similar taste to peanut butter but better. It was thick and sticks to the roof of your mouth just like good ole peanut butter. It was sweet but not too sweet. I was so excited about this new discovery. I waited to see if the indigestion was going to strike and keep me up all night but, it didn't. I was fine, never felt a thing. I couldn't wait to get up and eat again for breakfast!
Barney Butter offers online ordering. They sell other products on their site as well such as, almond butter in portable packets, gift packs, a variety of almonds and almond flour. They also have a section for recipes. CLICK HERE!! to visit the Barney Butter website and discover a healthier alternative to peanut butter. They also have a Facebook page which I checked for coupons. Although they have sections for Promos and Sweepstakes, they are all dead links. So, I'm assuming they are not currently offering any coupons at this time.
