FAQ

Is this peanut butter suitable for people with nut allergies?

No. Hormel Chunky Peanut Butter with Plant Protein contains peanuts, which are a common allergen. Individuals with peanut or tree‑nut allergies should avoid this product and seek alternative spreads that are specifically labeled nut‑free.

How long does the product stay fresh after opening?

Once opened, the peanut butter should be stored in a cool, dry place and tightly sealed. Under these conditions, it typically remains fresh for up to three months, though you may notice subtle changes in texture or flavor over time.

Can I use this spread in baking without altering the recipe?

Yes. The chunky consistency and added protein work well in baked goods such as cookies, bars, and muffins. You can substitute it 1:1 for regular peanut butter in most recipes, and the added protein will enhance the nutritional profile without affecting the final texture.

What is the source of the plant protein in this product?

The plant protein is derived from a blend of carefully selected legumes and seeds that complement the natural peanut flavor. Hormel ensures the protein source is non‑GMO and processed under strict quality controls to maintain purity and nutritional value.

Does the product contain any added sugars?

Hormel’s formulation contains a modest amount of natural sugars inherent to peanuts, but no additional refined sugars are added. This keeps the spread lower in sugar while still delivering a pleasant, slightly sweet taste.
