I don’t think I’ve ever analyzed the difference between the two. I love the honey-roasted Skippy, but don’t recall a preference for plain. However, I do not do generic.
I have to say, my mom always bought Peter Pan growing up, so I am slightly impartial to that. Although wasn’t that the contaminated brand a few years back…?
sorry, i can’t 100% agree with you on this. i love love love love love jif. (creamy of course). best on wheat toast…and of course not the reduced fat, ick. but, i’ve also never really experienced skippy, so, i can’t really say honestly.
my brother in law got some stuff from haiti…real natural honest-to-goodness peanut butter. its nasty. like, all soupy and gritty. gross.
I used to get Jif (creamy) growing up. In college I bought whatever brand was on sale. Now I am using trader joe’s pb because it only has peanuts and a bit of salt and it is pretty darn tasty!
I used to eat Jif all the time, but then I switched to the Adam’s organic a few years ago. I was craving peanut butter the other day, and all we had in the house was Colby’s Jif, so I had a spoonful of it, and EW, it was gross!!! However, it is possible that I would say the same about Skippy if I were to try it, so I’m not sure which side to pick!
WHAT?!?!?! I have to try. I am actually eating my daily apple with reduced fat jif as I read this and I am blown away. I always thought Jif was the best…
One time in my gifted class in elementary school, we had a peanut butter taste test. The clear winner was Jif. Though a handful of people like Skippy better. No one liked Peter Pan.
This isn’t creamy, and it’s not cheap, but I get honey roasted peanuts freshly ground at my local Whole Foods and it’s by far the best peanut butter I’ve ever had in my life. It’s my favorite indulgence.

Yes and yes.
Used to be a dedicated Jif eater and then realized Skippy is MUCH better.
Also? I love Peter Pan.
I am partial to Reese’s peanut butter. But, my bum gains a few inches just thinking about it.
I have to say I have no idea. I was born and raised on Jif and I’ve never ever swayed.
As a peanut butter connoisseur, I have to agree.
I want peanut butter!

I haven’t had either peanut butter in SO long. My husband only gets the organic, un-salted, no added sugar kind..Ugh!

oh hell no! Jif is the BEST.
period the end.
i like the natural stuff,
but the texture is far better in skippy
and i dislike chunky, but i do like peanuts on their own…
Maybe I’ll lose your friendship for this, but… I don’t care what brand it is as long as it’s chunky.
As a peanut butter connoisseur, I maintain that Jif is much, much better. And believe me, I eat that shit all day long.
That’s it, you are off my blog feed list. Blasphemy.

I don’t know if I’ve ever had Skippy… But I love me some JIF. Delicious.
I’m usually on the creamy side of the fence, but every once in awhile I crave chunky.
I’m all about creamy JIF. It is the ONLY peanut butter.
Give me chunky or give me death!
(Plus, Skippy all the way.)
Totally agree with you. Skippy IS better!
Yes, skippy is the best. But I like crunchy though.
Ok I am totally thinking about the peanut butter scene from Meet Joe Black now, so cute and yummy

Jif is foul. And it’s a stupid word.
Yes, Agreed.
Skippy is a far superior peanut butter spread than any other peanut butter spread. I have to stop eating it from the jar though.
Jif spreads easier, IMO.
-snickers-
But Skippy’s crunchy is DAMN good.
WHAT?!?!?! I have to try. I am actually eating my daily apple with reduced fat jif as I read this and I am blown away. I always thought Jif was the best…
no way man. chunky rules them all.
but i’m equal opportunity about the brand.
I’m lovin’ the Peter Pan stuff. Creamy. Yum. :)
Disagree! I’m a creamy Jif kinda girl.
Creamy is always better than crunchy in my book!

skippy. hands down. it is just more peanut buttery. ha!
TOTALLY agree. ;) mmmmm!
You know what is also good? Smucker’s Natural Peanut Butter with Honey, it’s really thick though..
