Simply Ground peanut butter — Not so simple

simply-ground

So I’ll preface this by saying that this peanut butter is no worse than (with about the same ingredients as) the Jif I last bought, and I did know the ingredients before purchasing and bought it anyway. But… quick: When you hear Simply Ground peanut butter, what’s your first assumption? A friend stopped by before I’d put away the pile of cheap Peter Pan Simply Ground peanut butter from Ultra Foods yesterday, and thought it was “that just peanuts natural stuff, right?” No, no it is not. Apparently the “simply ground” part refers to… the texture?

So, wondering: Just us, or did you also assume from the name that this was natural PB without sugar and/or hydrogenated oils?

It was recently discontinued. Here is how we bring it back. Contact the manufacturer, Con Agra at 1-877-CONAGRA or https://www.conagrabrands.com/contact-us. Select 'Product Feedback'. They do take consumer feedback under consideration to determine if bringing the product back is warranted. This was the BEST peanut butter ever. Let's see if we can't get it back!!!

Omg I'm in the same boat. They don't make it anymore and I usually buy 3 jars at once but I didn't know bc the small independent grocery store near me always had some but now I've bought all of it! Best. Peanut butter. Ever.

Are you sure they don’t,make it anymore! This is my favorite peanut butter ecer also. It doesn’t seem to ever get stale tasting. I googled it and it doesn’t say anything about it being discontinued. I may try ordering it from Amazon.

I bought 32 jars online a while back because I couldn't find it at the stores anymore. Then I started seeing it at the stores again so I would buy 5 to 8 at a time. My kids and I put it in our oatmeal every morning. We are down to 8 jars left and I can't find it anywhere :-(

I am obsessed with this peanut butter. I found it at Big Lots in a 26 oz size for $2.00. I love it - bought several jars and now I can’t find it anywhere and I just ran out!
