I eat peanut butter almost everyday between meals. It is not bad for you if you eat the all natural kind that you have to stir after opening. This kind has no sugar added.

Just have a serving, or maybe 1.5 servings once a day. I like to eat it on stone ground whole wheat wassa crackers, or just by itself. Don't have it with jelly on regular bread.

I like the carb options peanut butter by skippy. It's really good.

It's not bad for you, but it depends on your diet- it is high in fat (although healthy fat) so on WW, it is a higher points food. But it is definitely not bad for you (unless you sit and eat the whole jar at once )
