Nut butter is known as a great source of natural protein but Skippy is adding even more value to its peanut butter products with its new enriched peanut butter product. The creamy and chunky Peanut Butter Blended with Plant-Based Protein boasts three additional grams of plant-based protein per serving, offering a total of 10 grams of plant-based protein per serving. Although bolstered with additional plant-based protein, the products are said to be as flavorful and spreadable as ever, sharing the consistency peanut butter lovers have come to expect from the brand.
The 14-ounce Peanut Butter Blended with Plant-Based Protein jars are being touted as the first mainstream products of their kind, especially as they boast a squat design that helps customers avoid "peanut butter knuckles."
