I cannot tell you the last time I had peanut butter in the house.

Tell me about it. It's a bad habit with me, too.

Awhile back, Mrs WBill saw an "expose" on High Fructose Corn Syrup. She's been on a kick to cut it out of our diets. Fine by me, it's in a lot of pre-processed junk food that I shouldn't be eating, anyway. If the cookies, candy, soda, etc aren't in the house for me to eat....they won't get eaten!!!

However - it's ALSO in a lot of "regular" food. Peanut Butter. Most condiments - Ketchup!!!. Bread (?!!). We're shopping a little more consciously, now.

Interestingly enough, since we've cut back on it, I'm less hungry. For instance, I *like* Peanut Butter Sandwiches. Used to eat two for lunch. Now that we're more careful about HFCS, one does me just fine. One sandwich, handful of chips, glass of milk, and I'm good to go for the rest of the day.

Interesting, sez me. My waistline likes it, too.

If you love peanut butter then you must try Jif Natural Peanut Butter. Its only ingredients are peanuts, sugar, palm oil, salt and molasses. :)
