and you definitely have to drain it more than 3 times and stick a rolled up paper towel in the "funnel" more than once. It does get most of the oil out, but there's still some in mine even though I've done the turning the jar over thing 5x and the rolled up paper towel 2x. I will probably just keep doing it until I finish the jar and will start "de-oiling" a new jar of PB as soon as possible so it'll be ready when I'm done with this one.
I'm not sure whether this is affecting my tummy or not. I've been mixing half and half of this pb with the Peanut Wonder because it makes it smooth and easier to spread, plus it gives it a sweeter taste. Anyway, I'm going to continue to eat it and keep a log of how upset my tummy is the next day. I'll let you all know.

Assuming that you get all the oil out of the jar, 2T is 60 cal, 0g fat, 5g carbs, 2g fiber and 8g protein.

You can find it at some HFS. Here's the website: Peanut Wonder. It has 100 cal and 2.5g fat per 2T, but it tastes kinda funky on it's own so I've been mixing it with de-oiled PB and it tastes great - like regular PB should. I'm just worried that I'm not getting all the oil out of the regular PB... I know I've gotten at least 75%, but I'm holding out for the last 25%...

I am going to try it this weekend. I bought Smucker's natural and there is like TWO INCHES of oil at the top! Gross! But, I figured maybe that meant it would de-fat easier ... right??? Anyway, we'll see how it goes ...

I am still at the paper-towel-at-the-top stage. I think I'm on my sixth one. The first towel actually got sucked down into the peanut butter and I had to scrape it all off. Now I probably have paper towel fibers in my PB. I think after this one I will give up and start on the funnel thing. But I'm not sure if I need to turn it upside-down for the funnel thing?  I'm not going to because I think I'll just get the towel sucked in again.
I'm not sure why I'm doing this, 'cause I just tasted the PB, and I forgot that I hate natural PB. I need the sugar and additives!!! Oh well. I'm hoping that if I can get most of the fat out of this I can make some decent low-fat PB cookies. But since this isn't working so well how will I know how much fat I've gotten out??

I think in the OP it said to mix it with water to make spreadalbe. Did you try that and didn't like it? Just curious if the PB & water is worth the trouble?

I do believe that you have hit on something there, Jen??? I believe that we do go crazy, I mean are we not dealing with the intestines and who will ultimately win the day?? I know that I mumble and mutter and argue with myself or if my hubby is around I might just try to talk to him, but normally I feel that I have lost everything and now I can not even find the right foods to eat. Being hungry does weird things to your perceptions.
Regarding the peanut butter issue, has anyone checked out Jif?? I do not know have only been feeling better for the past two weeks after many years of no relief.
Peace and sunshine to all,
