moby3 Posted October 15, 2010 Share hi, can anyone tell me if it is true that peanut butter has a very high transfat content because the peanuts are roasted? I wolf down the stuff and it would break my heart to have to give it up! Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Contaminated Haggis Posted October 15, 2010 Share Get your cholestrol checked if you are so worried. If its below 5 then you are good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minion Posted October 15, 2010 Share Woolies Peanut butter contains no trans fats. I suspect Black Cat is the same. Check out the info here:http://www.woolworths.co.za/caissa.asp?Page=ITB4_RHProduct&Prod=0000020026660 A bigger problem with most peanut butters is the amount of sugar and salt they add to them.

Wallee Posted October 15, 2010 Share I know that transfats are the worst kind of fat. Never even thought about roasting causing transfats. Food for thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher Brunsdon Posted October 15, 2010 Share The only concern I can think of is if your allergic or not. I live on the stuff and never had issues, just having some right now - yummy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
