Occasionally we go places where we need to take our lunch (like the zoo, etc). I am not a big fan of lunch meat and got a little tired of this summer. On a whim at the store about a month ago, I saw "IM Healthy Soynut Butter" and picked it up.
I felt confident Tyler completely understood the difference between peanut butter or alternative type spreads. Plus, he is not a picky eater so, even if it was not the greatest, I thought he would eat it.
He was so excited to try it. I had not even unpacked the groceries before he was begging me to open it and slap it on bread.
Before I gave it to him, I took a taste. I am a pretty picky eater so I was not expecting much. And you know what?
It was good!!
Plus, Tyler absolutely loved it!! He was thrilled to have a peanut butter alternative. I realized were it not for our PA reality, he would probably love peanut butter.
Overall, I think I prefer Sunbutter just a little more. But, IM Soynut Butter is a close second. Plus, its a great alternative if you are avoiding sunflower seeds.
For those of you wondering, this product is made in a completely peanut free facility.

I found that Wal-Mart sells soy butter under their own label (made in a peanut-free facility). I don't care for Sunbutter, and I think (Wal-Mart's) soy butter has a texture closer to real PB, so that's what we have been using. I haven't tried the I.M. Healthy brand (it's more expensive here), but am glad to know that it's a good alternative in case I can't find my current brand (sometimes they run out!).
why is it called soy "nut" butter???
My guess is when they dry soybeans they call them "soynuts." I have bought the dried beans labeled as such. Yes, its a little annoying for those of us who don't want anything to do with nuts. But they are not really "nuts."
thank you, robyn! I am having a hard time with this!!!
