What it is
This is a spread made from dark roasted peanuts. The roasting process deepens the natural flavor of the peanuts, giving them a more intense and slightly smoky taste. It is processed to achieve a smooth, creamy texture, making it easy to spread. This product is a good source of plant-based fats and is often used as a pantry staple.
