Hey, whenever we recommend a product or restaurant, it’s still up to you to make sure that they are safe for you or whoever it is with a peanut or tree nut allergy. We are not responsible for any allergic reactions, okie-dokie?

I used to love peanut butter. I even tried to keep a stash of peanut butter cups for an afternoon treat. Peanut butter and natural fruit spread sandwiches were my go-to when I didn’t feel like going to the store. Now that the house is peanut and nut-free, it was an adjustment to say the least.

Then, I found out about this sunflower butter stuff that is really, really good. In fact, I like it more than I’ve ever liked peanut butter. If only we can convince Hershey’s to create a sunflower butter cup, all would be good in the universe.

I’ve only ever tried the SunButter brand below. I know that Trader Joe’s is supposed to have their own brand, but our local store doesn’t carry it.
