I don't need the sweetness, but I do like the salt. In fact, I
usually mix in more salt now, since I have to stir it anyway. I
used to prefer Wild Oats' organic chunky PB. Now my daughter
prefers Trader Joe's (unfortunately, their only organic chunky PB
is made from Valencia peanuts). I have just discovered Teddie's
natural, which is rather good but undersalted. I recently bought
their PB that contains flax seeds too, but I haven't yet tried it.
Unfortunately that isn't ultra-chunky.
