Things in the world seem at times to go from bad to worse, and I'm never sure whether I'm in the 'there's a balance that will return to save the world' or "Oh God, it's just like in that movie The Day After with Jason Robards." Without food as a crutch, I know I have to channel my anxiety into something and that often includes a fast walk. If nothing else, it was one of the beautiful days of fall and of the week (there was rain in future predictions for the week).

Skippy came out with a product called ironically, "Skippy Natural." On its label it proudly declares "No Need to Stir." This is presumably because fans of all-natural peanut butter know it arrives in need of stirring to combine its natural oil and peanuty goodness. Both for my blog-readers and my own naturaly curiosity, I purchased some. I got it home and instantly put it up against the Teddie brand of smooth peanut butter. Funny, I noticed it was higher in sugars and a few other things. Then I noted in its ingredients: sugar. That explains why there's no need to stir. The Whole Kids brand of peanut butter, that was previously my favorite, was also of the no-stir variety. The sugar helps bind all the ingredeints so no stirring is needed. But last time I checked, peanut butter is really made of crushed peanuts. Skippy "Natural" my arse.

Good watching of ingredients. We should all be doing it. Unfortunately or fortunately depending on your perspective, I react to sugar so I find it whether I read the package labeling or not. But good for you...and nice idea from last blog about the yourt in the schools. Great! Love, MOM
