This jar of Just Peanuts was purchased at the Canadian Superstore. The cover of the peanut butter reads:"Oil separation naturally occurs with this product. Stir fully before use. Refrigerate after opening."
A few years back, it would have been nearly impossible to find this type of product at most supermarkets. Food manufacturers just assumed that customers preferred convenience over health concerns. Although hydrogenated oils prevent product separation, they dramatically increase the risk of coronary heart disease, breast cancer, other types of cancers.
Thankfully, making better choices is getting easier. Where we shop, people can now run around looking for the light blue labels!
