My Thoughts:

Justin's is one of my favorite brands when it comes to nut butters. I've loved peanut butter all my life, and finding a company that makes natural and organic products and snacks was wonderful! Justin's was kind enough to send a few of their most popular products. Now that it is, National Peanut Butter Butter Lovers Month, I hope this post can provide everyone with ideas for fun ways to enjoy the celebration!

The first couple of products I tried were the Justin's Peanut Butter and Banana Chip Snack Packs. They are available in classic peanut butter, as well as honey. What I noticed right away was that the peanut butter was nice and thick in both of them. I took a spoon out to mix it since the thickness was breaking the chips. Which in reality, is a good thing. To me, the thicker the peanut butter the yummier it is! Once mixed, it was easier to get the product on the banana chips. My favorite was the classic variety peanut butter. However, if you like a sweet kick with your snack, the honey flavored is for you! The banana chips had a good crunch and sweetness to them in both packs I tried.  

One treat I cannot get enough of are, Justin's Peanut Butter cups! Look at all that peanut butter goodness stuffed into them in my picture. Honestly, you must try one! You will question why you didn't have one sooner. Lol. Justin's makes these in milk, dark, and white chocolate. No matter what you like, Justin's has you covered. I adored all the flavors. Each cup is filled with thick peanut butter. The chocolate was creamy and luscious with every bite. They are also awesome cold. Put a pack of these in the fridge, get some ice cream, and you have a sundae in the works. Another great treat? Each peanut butter cup has a coupon inside the wrapper!    

So, want to celebrate, National Peanut Butter Lovers Month, the right way? I highly recommend Justin's array of products! One bite and your taste buds will thank you.
