½ Price Pic's Really Good Peanut Butter Varieties 380g $3.75 @ Woolworths
May contain traces of nuts
I hope it contains traces of nuts and it may as well be peanuts 🥜 and lots of them 😉

It is listed as one of the allergens…
At least 50% Australian ingredients…
@nocure You're on a roll 😀
Sandwich with honey
FYI - If you store this for a long time make sure you rotate occasionally.
So, I got dizzy and the peanut butter tastes weird. Did I do this right?
Yes I can confirm this is key, making your life easier in the long run.
Pic's or it didn't happen….
Don't hijack this post with your personal life

It was spread really well. Don’t worry lol
@jv
Just a lil update
First time had pics. Loving it!
Bought a couple more to stock later today.
She’ll be spread well alright from now
OP Thankyou for your service.
PB and honey sandwiches back on the menu.
Dunno about everyone else, but I honestly really rate the Woolworths Essentials peanut butter wayyyy more highly than Pic's. It's not even about the price being cheaper (though that's good too), it's genuinely a better spread imo

Maybe because you can taste that sweet 10% sugar added. I'm not buying that.
Roasted Peanuts (90%), Sugar, Stabiliser (471), Salt - Made in Argentina
Argentinians make the best salt…
Maybe, but it's not 10% sugar added. There's 8.9g of sugar per 100g in the Essentials product vs 3.6g per hundred in the Pic's. When you probably spread 10-20g of the stuff on a piece of bread there's probably more sugar in your bread than on your spread.
There's probably no argument that Pic's is "healthier" than the Essentials brand (even the star rating of 4 vs 5 tells you that) but - honestly - I'm not buying peanut butter for its nutritional value or the trivial 0.5g of extra sugar I might have per serving… I'm buying it for the taste.
Sometimes you just gotta enjoy life :)
I think pics are the best, bega as good or a close second.
I think mayvers, while good, is overrated tbh
nah. Mayvers has way better macros than the other options.
Don't know why Maybers haven't been half price for a while now.
Is this for real?
I wouldn't think there could be that much variation. Must investigate.
My brain also likes when I taste and ingest sugar.
its also packed in plastic - id stay clear of that
Good timing, finished off my last jar this morning.
Are you me???
50% Aussie peanuts, 50% Chinese peanuts. Same price as 100% Australian peanuts. I don't see why they don't just go straight to 100% Chinese.

Our jars are packed with Hi Oleic peanuts. A bit like people, they’re all a bit different. We choose the good sorts. Most come from Brazil and Argentina, with the odd batch from Australia.
Pic's Peanut Butter is made using Hi Oleic peanuts, not Chinese peanuts. While Pic's exports some peanut butter to China, they primarily source their Hi Oleic peanuts from Australia, Brazil, and sometimes Argentina.
Brazil, and Argentina. would be the cheaper option when Aussie crops have gone up in price.
I stand corrected
This one turns to an oil on top, needs a good stir, never seen that before with the nut butter..
All 99.5% nut butter gets oily at the top
The fewer extra ingredients (emulsifiers, stabilisers etc) the more peanut butter will behave that way. Pressed and crushed peanuts create peanut oil.
Peanut butter? Similar thing.
Its juat a matter of mixing the spread up a bit befoe you use it (pretty sure that pics or mayvers or natural foods even made a "peanut butter mixing lid" you could buy… basically a stirring rod through a lid that you replaced the original lid with in order to mix it all evenly..
Pretty cool product.
OzBargain, thanks for sorting out which day of the week it is. As a retiree I sometimes lose track. So today is monday. This special starts tomorrow, which is wednesday. Right?
That's what you get for living outside the East coast timezone. It also affects QLD when the others have daylight savings.
Tomorrow is Tuesday. This offer starts Wednesday. :) on Christmas break i forget the day of the week.
Are the days of half-priced Mayver's a thing of the past? Seems like ages since they have discounted…
Don't get too caught up on the brand names… 😅
And bega simply nuts too
Mayer's goes on sale too. just not as often
I know they do, but as I said, it's been ages since they had half-priced Mayver's…really need to stock up on my dark roasted PB..
Ok ,was curious were they source they're peanuts from .Pics site says from Brazil ,Argentina and small batches from Australia.
Does it really matter though?
Do people really think that Argentina and Brazil are treating their peanuts, better than the Chinese do…? Lol
There's a sense of utilising Australian produce where possible in Australian products.
Unfortunately not. That's why Dick Smith failed.
Consumers are driven by price. The robots are coming.
😅😅… Right… Where's the Australian produce / products, in this post? Maybe I'm missing something.
When prices are cheap they will use Aussie peanuts when expensive they will use Brazil or Argentina.. i think its a season sol thing. When they grow in season they are 100% Aussie nuts
Perfect timing, thanks OP!
So, normal price $7.50 … Wow
How long has it been at least half aussie? Remember it being just elsewhere?
Just buy from Costco.Works out to be roughly sane orice per unit.
Please don't tell me you're suggesting Skippy peanut butter?
PIC'S
I'm not going to pay a annual fee to just buy a jug of peanut butter :)
Costco only has the smooth one, and it can turn rancid if you don't finish it in time
I've said it before and will keep spreading the word: pair a spoonful of this with Bulla's vegan vanilla ice-cream for a delicious post-dinner dessert.
fix n Fogg, pics, mayvers are goated
HODL FOR MAYVERS
What’s in this again?
Oh my lord it’s Legumes! 😱
