Adam's 100% is probably the best choice bah.

Ingredient: Peanuts. Only.

As mentioned, price. Bigger volume plus glass opening is bigger, so easier to dig.

This is the main reason why people will choose Adam's or anything 100% natural over processed brands like Peter Pan:

Peter Pan Peanut Butter Ingredients List:
Sugar, Partially Hydrogenated Vegetables Oils (Cottonseed and Rapeseed), Salt, Roasted Peanuts.

https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/hydrogenated-vegetable-oil#production-uses

Production and uses
Hydrogenated vegetable oil is made from edible oils extracted from plants, such as olives, sunflowers, and soybeans.

Because these oils are typically liquid at room temperature, many companies use hydrogenation to get a more solid and spreadable consistency. During this process, hydrogen molecules are added to alter the texture, stability, and shelf life of the final product (1Trusted Source).

Hydrogenated vegetable oils are also used in many baked goods to improve taste and texture (2).

Additionally, these oils are more stable and resistant to oxidation, which is the breakdown of fats when exposed to heat. Thus, they’re easy to use in baked or fried foods, as they’re less likely to become rancid than other fats (3Trusted Source).

Yet, hydrogenation also creates trans fats, a type of unsaturated fat that can harm your health (4Trusted Source).

Although many countries have tightened regulations around hydrogenated vegetable oil, it can still be found in a variety of food products.

SUMMARY
Hydrogenated vegetable oil undergoes processing to enhance its taste, texture, and shelf life. This process forms trans fats, which are bad for your health.

Side effects
Hydrogenated vegetable oils have been linked to several adverse health effects.

May impair blood sugar control

Some research suggests that hydrogenated vegetable oils harm blood sugar control.

One 16-year study in nearly 85,000 women found that those who consumed the highest amount of trans fats, which are a byproduct of hydrogenation, had a significantly higher risk of type 2 diabetes (5Trusted Source).

Another study in 183 people associated trans fat intake with a higher risk of insulin resistance. This condition impairs your body’s ability to use insulin, a hormone that regulates blood sugar levels (6Trusted Source, 7Trusted Source).

However, other studies give conflicting results about the effects of trans fats on blood sugar levels. Thus, more research is needed (8Trusted Source).

May increase inflammation

Although acute inflammation is a normal immune response that protects against illness and infection, chronic inflammation can contribute to conditions like heart disease, diabetes, and cancer (9Trusted Source).

Studies show that the trans fats in hydrogenated vegetable oil can increase inflammation in your body.

One small, 5-week study in 50 men noted that swapping out other fats for trans fat raised levels of inflammatory markers (10Trusted Source).

Similarly, a study in 730 women found that certain markers of inflammation were up to 73% higher in those who consumed the highest amount of trans fats, compared with those who consumed the least (11Trusted Source).

Can harm heart health

Hydrogenated vegetable oils’ trans fats have been shown to harm heart health.

Studies reveal that trans fats can increase levels of LDL (bad) cholesterol while decreasing good HDL (good) cholesterol, both of which are risk factors for heart disease (12Trusted Source).

Other studies link high trans fat intake to a higher risk of heart disease and stroke.

For example, one 20-year study in 78,778 women associated high trans fat intake with a significantly greater risk of heart disease, while another study in 17,107 people tied every 2 grams of trans fat consumed daily to a 14% higher risk of stroke in men (13Trusted Source, 14Trusted Source).

SUMMARY
Hydrogenated vegetable oil may increase inflammation and negatively affect heart health and blood sugar control.

You need to look at the Nutrition Facts. Don’t let the word “Natural” mislead you.

The 'natural' one is the one with the layer of oil, have to stir before using.

I've a bottle of the brown one, I got so sick of having to stir and the taste is also different from the regular crunchy one that I like.
