Earth Balance Crunchy Natural Peanut Butter with Flaxseed combines roasted peanuts, peanut oil, agave syrup, flaxseed, palm oil, and salt to create a nutty, crunchy spread. It does contain some added sugar and saturated fat from palm oil, but it avoids trans fats and provides the added benefit of omega-3s from flaxseed. It’s also a convenient option for those who want a healthier peanut butter without the hassle of stirring oil back in, as is often required with many “all-natural” varieties.
