Peanut Butter with Something Extra

   Do you wish your peanut butter had more oomph, but in a nutritious way? Planters has taken peanut butter to a whole new level for adults with added wholesome ingredients like bananas, granola, cranberries, raisins, cinnamon and nuts in their new Planters NUT●rition  peanut butter.

   Planters NUT●rition peanut butter has revolutionized the peanut butter category as the first national brand to include wholesome ingredients, creating an adventurous taste for your peanut butter palate.
Made with a peanut butter base, Planters NUT●rition  peanut butter is packed with nutrients, vitamins and minerals, and 6-7 grams of protein per serving—making it a good source of energy.

The three delicious varieties are:
·         Banana Granola Nut

·         Berry Nut

·         Cinnamon Raison Granola Nut

The suggested retail price is $3.99 so why not try all three? Perfect to tuck in a backpack while hiking or having around the dorm when you need a healthier snack. All three passed the taste test with very fussy peanut butter lovers.
