Is this as smooth as the old Trader Joe's almond butter. TJ's new stuff is gritty and I don't like gritty.

No--it is about the same grittiness as the new TJ almond butter. I've yet to find any almond butter ground as smooth as the old TJ stuff.

I believe TJ has a couple of different kinds........chunky, creamy and possibly another. But now having experienced one full jar of ZO Creamy, I am less satisfied than before. It is a bit too watery for my liking. While it is OK --the premium price is simply not warranted. TJs in out area had a stocking problem which they seem to have solved and I have taken my business back there. It's at the very least as good as ZO and 1/2 the price.

Yes me too, I wrote a review about it. The taste is terrible also. I had been buying from Amazon though so I am not sure why it is suddenly different.

No it is smooth. It is a bit bitter like bold black coffee. So I suggest adding honey to it and drink fast so it gets in your system fast. And drink on empty stomach.

Yes, I have made peanut butter and it turns out pretty smooth. Not perfectly smooth though.

I was hoping it would be like Bisquick. It is not. It just does not have a good texture. Sorry

It's the same texture, yes. But I wouldn't substitute this stuff for peanut butter. In fact I am having a hard time using up the third jar. it's really sweet and super "greasy" - I don't know how else to put it. My grandkids - who are sweet-lovers - hate this stuff.

Not gritty. Very smooth , but not gelly either. Slightly pastry, but good flavor. I love it

Unfortunately, I've already finished that particul brand and don't know. I purchased several different brands, all natual Almond Butter. The one brand, Brad's Organic Roasted Almond Butters states it's organic but nothing about the almonds being pasturized. You may have to contact some of the producers and ask them that question specifically. Sorry I couldn't help.

Hi Doug,It seems to be normal. The butter seems to separate out and the clumps appear to be concentrated ground almond. (Try Barney Butter sometime - much better!)

Hi Dee, I'm just seeing this question now. The other comments are correct, there shouldn't be any grittiness. It should be smooth and creamy. Your jar may have been subjected to heat during shipping. Please email me (if you haven't already) and I'll send you a replacement jar right away. Kenny CEO Christina Moss Naturals

I have had Adams natural and also like it. This Teddie brand seems to me to be made with perhaps higher quality, or at least different peanuts. Perhaps it's just Virginia vs. Redskins or something like that. So far the Teddie brand delivered to me on 3 orders has been fresher than what you would usually find in a grocery, so easier to stir. I still prefer local freshly ground peanuts to any in a jar.

I added yogurt and fruit to mine to help with the grainy texture. It did help. But after awhile, I just couldn't take the "bits of dirt" (grains) left in the bottom of my cup, so I stopped using it. Pure Protein brand is pretty good, with much less grit.

In the past I have purchased more commercially produced shea butter in jars. That being said, this one is very soft - more so than usual, a deeper yellow gold color and yes, very smooth and easier to work with. It also hasn't 'grained' up on me while melting for my whipped body butter recipe. Hope this helps! :)

It has little bit of texture, but if you put less than full scoop it will be plenty smooth. Mixing this with different kinds of liquids like Coconut milk/ Almond milk, they'll love it. I didn't care much for broccoli as a kid, but my parents made me get nutrition I needed. You're in charge, don't forget that.

I have noticed that too, but I'm quite sure it's because it has had time to settle, and the heavier part of the almond butter with the small pieces of nut go to the bottom. Once you stir it up and the tiny pieces get incorporated well into the rest of it, it looks perfectly normal and tastes fine.

It should not feel gritty at all. I'm guessing you must have a bad batch (never happened to me before). Contact the seller right away!!

Smooth, if I remember correctly. It's at a thrift store now. Couldn't grind fennel with it at all. However I'm not awfully strong.
