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.

TS your taste buds are destroyed? I can smell the fragrance of the roasted peanut from my grab redemption.

Which did you bought? I bought the pure chunky.

Sadly, JIF uses hydrogenated vegetable oil from soybean. I stopped buying that brand after I found that out.

Doesn't taste like peanut butter since so liquid. I didn't like the flat flavour, felt like just coat the tongue in oil.

No, I don't think they added sugar. I think they added too much oil.

Mine just says chunky on the label. Ingredients just says roasted peanuts and nothing else. My photos shows this.

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.
