I eat generally only "organic" peanut butter, but will say on occasion eat the fresh gound peanut butter at Whole Foods. Think this is okay or need "organic"?
On jelly side, I very seldom eat jelly, but when I do it's not "organic" but NO SUGAR (not artificially sweetened either).
Great topic as never really thought about should I purchase "organic" peanut butter too. Like to see what others post.
I'm following diet recommended by a homeopathic doc who said no peanuts. Don't really know why. I am also on NO SUGAR or additives or processed food. I would eat fresh strawberries and almonds or walnuts.
Well after reading your Dr. Weil article, I'm switching to ground almonds from Whole Foods.....love them better anyway. Crazy all the things we're reading to stay health and keep cancer away....

You can also purchase regular peanut butter that's NOT organic with NO SUGAR!! That's what I purchase when can't get organic at a particular store.
Think organic in these products is worth it? Curious...

Peanuts = beans
and are source of carcinogenic called aflatoxin. (The China study, but we learned about that at school these 30 or so years ago)
