Trying Times for Peanut Butter
If you're nervous about using peanut butter these days because of the litany of products being recalled but can't live without your Skippy, consider this:
There's no cashew butter recall.
Have you ever eaten cashew butter? It's delicious--imagine a goopier but more flavorful peanut butter. You can make your own, but you can find it in most grocery stores. Cashews are low in fat and high in copper (who knew), so while it's not an instant vitamin, it's tasty. And they go well in cupcakes, so that covers my nutritional needs.

I love cashew butter, especially in Hopleaf's CB&J sandwich. Tasty, tasty stuff -- maybe the peanut butter recall will be its big moment.
