The Report from Spotted Tail 7/14//11
While some of the fishermen I work with tell me, “I never eat while I fish,” most bring food. We’re fishermen. We have to eat.
One of my favorite boat foods is the classic peanut butter and jelly.
Recently I got a sample of Barney Butter. At first I thought it was made from that purple dinosaur beloved by children, but Barney Butter’s PR company assures me that no animals were harmed in the making of this product. The last name of the woman who developed this delicious food for her children was Barney.
Barney Butter looks like peanut butter, and has the texture of creamy peanut butter, but it is in fact almond butter. The samples I had came in individual snack packs.
What makes Barney Butter Snack Packs the perfect on-the-go snack:
. Unlike other almond butters, the all natural California almonds are peeled before they are crushed into butter, so there’s no gritty texture or bitter flavor
. They are the perfect size for picnics, beach trips, school lunches, flights, and summer vacations
. Out of all nut allergies, almonds remain the least problematic
. Barney Butter is gluten-free, vegan, and the perfect substitute for peanut butter
. Barney Butter contains half the saturated fat of peanut butter, making it a healthier snack choice
. You do not have to refrigerate Barney Butter
. There is no trans fat in Barney Butter Snack Packs and each pack is only 90 calories
. Each Snack Pack is rich in protein, calcium, iron, vitamin E, and magnesium
. They are a great way to sneak more fiber into meals and low carb diets
. Easily accessible: Barney Butter Snack Packs are available at grocery stores nationwide
. Virgin Airlines and Jet Blue offer Barney Butter Snack Packs as part of their in-flight meals
. Barney Butter is the comfort food that makes you feel like you’re cheating
. 3 million Americans have peanut allergies, making Barney Butter Snack Packs a premium almond butter alternative
Barney Butter Snack Packs are available at grocery stores nationwide, as well as www.barneybutter.com. One .6 oz. packet retails from $0.79 to $0.99, and are available in boxes of 24.
The stuff is delicious. Give it a try!
