A "better" alternative to Jif is Justin's, available in stores in Colorado and online for everywhere.


A couple of the eight kinds of nuts/flavors of packets available.

I took several packets hiking on most trips last summer; they hold a little less than jif's mini-tubs, but take up less room in the trash ziplock in my pack when empty.

Justin's is all natural, uses many organic ingredients, uses 48 percent renewably-sourced packet film and is doing what it can to shrink it's footprint, such as sourcing hazelnuts out of Oregon instead of Italy. So it's quite obvious it's made in Boulder, CO, right?

And if you're worried about this all-natural product separating, just knead the packet for a few seconds before opening.

(Great idea, CM, adding stevia to make it sweeter, rather than high-fructose corn syrup put in the big brands, and why we should skippa-da-Skippy.)
