SKIPPY Creamy Peanut Butter, 5 Pound

This peanut butter is not just food. It’s a survival strategy.I’m a single homeschooling mom, which means I don’t have time to debate lunch options with a kid who thinks goldfish crackers are a food group. I need meals that are fast, familiar, and won’t get me side-eyed by a 11-year-old with a snack opinion. Enter: this glorious 5-pound bucket of Skippy Creamy Peanut Butter.We use this on everything. Bread? Of course. Bananas? Naturally. A spoon straight from the jar at 9 a.m. while I “start the lesson plan” (aka open TikTok)? You already know. Bake with it, eat it as is so versatile.This peanut butter:🥄 Spreads smoother than my patience on a Monday🥄 Tastes like childhood, but with better bills🥄 Doubles as an emotional support condiment🥄 Bakes like a dream in cookies when I’m pretending we’re doing “home ec”The texture is perfect no dry clumps, easy to spread, no weird grit. Just that soft, creamy Skippy magic that lets me believe I still have control over something in my kitchen.My kid would eat this three meals a day if I let him. And frankly, some weeks I do. It’s protein. It sticks to bread. It doesn’t talk back. That’s more than I can say about half the people in my life.We’ve reordered this so many times that if Amazon ever stops carrying it, I will simply spiral. So thank you, Skippy, for making a jar big enough to support a single-parent household running on caffeine, chaos, and creamy peanut goodness.

I think this is my fourth or fifth exact purchase of this absolute staple -- SKIPPY Creamy Peanut Butter! Consistently fantastic. Has that classic, reliable, and utterly delicious peanut butter experience. Firstly, the value is unbeatable (~$0.13 an ounce). Then the taste and texture -- perfectly smooth, incredibly creamy, with the signature sweet + savory peanutty flavor. Finally, the versatility: can be used for quick snacks, easy lunches, baking cookies, and sometimes a straight spoonful straight from the jar; with 7 grams of protein per serving, everything is given a nice little bonus.

This is the only peanut butter I have been buying for the past year and will continue to buy it even though it is the second best. Why? Well there is many reasons. Let’s start back when the salmonella outbreak hit Jif. I had been buying up two 4lb tubs of jif a month, plus keeping 3 to 4 of those big tubs in my pantry. Now if you have seen the price of how much jif costs, then you know that’s around a hundred dollars worth of jif on hand at all times. Spending 20 to 30 a month on it. Sooo, they have the salmonella outbreak and I go to check all the codes on my containers and they were all coded with the (may be contaminated) disclaimer online. Well, ok. That didn’t sound so bad when i didn’t catch salmonella and I heard that jif was doing the money back coupons on their online site so we could be reimbursed for what we had to throw out, we just had to send them our info and coding for the jars. Cool, I thought. Well, I did everything they asked. A month gos by, two months, 6 months, it’s been over a year now and never received any reimbursement coupons for almost a hundred dollars worth of peanut butter I had to toss in the dumpster. Now, if that wasn’t enough, jif at that time was almost impossible to get your hands on for months, and if you could find it online, it was being sold for like 50 dollars for a small jar because of its shortage, and everybody was jumping on the fact that people wanted it so they just kept raising the cost. After a few months went by, I decided to try out many other brands of peanut butter. Came across Skippy, which I hadn’t had since I was a kid. It wound up being the closest taste, texture, and thickness to jif I could find. It isn’t as sweet as jif but it’s close. It has more of a salty flavor, but not in a bad way. Just different. It’s a good peanut butter. Easily the second best. No it’s not jif, but it’s working out just fine for me. And to top it all off, even at Jifs lowest price, skippy is half the cost for a larger tub. Skippy 5 pound tub is half the price of jifs 4 pound tub. Listen, the salmonella issue isn’t what turned me. That could be an accident in the factory, however, when you ignore your customers and refuse to reimburse them after they said they would. That’s no accident. That’s just them throwing dirt in your wound. As for me, I’m still going through the same amount of peanut butter. But it is way cheaper and comes with a tag that says Skippy. So would I suggest this skippy to others? Definitely. I would suggest they only buy skippy and walk away from companies like jif that serves nobody but themselves. I’m happy with skippy. I know it isn’t as good as jif, but they don’t deserve my time or money anymore. I’m just fine spending all my money on skippy now. And you should be too. I’m giving skippy a 5 star rating for being my only peanut butter brand for the past year with no issues at all. I hope this review helps out in some type of way. Maybe you are also looking for a new peanut butter like I was. Look no further. This skippy is what you should be buying up. It’s more than worth the price. Thanks for taking the time out and reading this.

We always enjoy this size and brand. Kid and adults enjoy its flavor and size. Keep it up. A public service really.Kids and families and this time a gift trade barter with my good neighbor. American plenty we are thankful to be a part of.Do you have chunky.

Great price especially for 5lb. Skippy.
