You can buy pb with no added sugar which helps a little. I eat pb on 1 slice brown toast ( toast has no added sugar ), I limit my toast to 1 slice...hope that helps
I recommend peanut butter with as little added as possible especially no palm oil.
This is not a diabetes thing. It is an environmental concern. And not necessary.
Actually, I have never found a peanut butter in the UK with added sugar (unless you go for the very cheap ones, maybe). Some have salt but that should be it.
I am currently enjoying Manilife crunchy peanut butter. It has the largest pieces of nut in it that I have come across so very crunchy.
The ingredients are peanuts and salt only.

I too avoid palm oil for health as well as environmental concerns. We like Meridian Organic Crunchy Peanut Butter with no added sugar. Contains peanuts and salt only.

Or you can easily make your own in a blender dry roasted peanuts and a little olive oil is all that is required.
