Larder: Peanut butter


For this particular larder item, we enlisted the help of a sibling (student) and his friend (also student). They voted unanimously for the saltiest, most unhealthiest butter by miles, and then buggered off to watch Countdown or something… probably.

Skippy
3 stars
£1.79
53p/100g

Dense and sticky, with just the right amount of salt (although probably too much to be healthy).

Aldi, Grandessa
4 stars
87p
25p/100g

Nice and gloopy, with all the taste of the Skippy. Win.

Peanut Butter Co.
3 stars
£2.19
64p/100g

One for the purists; this one contains little more than peanuts, yet still manages to cost more.

Tesco
2 stars
87p
25p/100g

Low on taste, and nowhere near grainy enough for our knife. Meh.

Sainsbury’s
2 stars
99p
29p/100g

Much like Tesco’s effort, but with an odd aftertaste thrown in for good measure.

Waitrose, Essentials
4 stars
£1.06
31p/100g

Lovely coarse butter, well-seasoned and at a tastey price.
