I bought Jobbie peanut butter today (17-03-2020) as I thought I'd give it a try. I was genuinely hoping it would be good as it is a local brand.
But....
it is really disappointing. The chunky type is more like very oily peanut sauce with crushed peanuts. I thoroughly stirred it to try to mix it really well before using.
Ingredients says just roasted peanuts but I seriously doubt it is pure roasted peanuts. I can taste some kind of neutral oil (maybe canola or peanut oil) they have used which is what is making it so liquid until it pours from the spoon like a Thai peanut sauce. I suspect they're adding too much oil to their grinder machine to prevent it from seizing. I have tried making peanut butter myself and I know that's the problem that happens when the process is rushed and the grinder is not setup well.
So sadly, I would give jobbie 1 star out of 5 star. I won't buy it again.

I couldn't find any good local supplier. I tried Joeys. Now I tried Jobbie. Not great. So end up go back to Adams. Expensive so I can't eat as much as I want. Someday I hope someone local can start to make good quality peanut butter. I assume we can grow these peanuts locally. Doesn't seem like high tech.
