    our white trash has no peanut butter it is made by taking a cookie sheet with sides or a 9x13 cake pan and lay parchment paper in it & up the side slightly melt 1# white melting chocolate in double boiler and to it most any thing nuts, dried fruit,candied fruit like you use in fruit cake, rasians ,cranberries,currants,chowmain noodles(dry they come in a can in the oriental section of the store)mix it in to the chocolate as much as you want at least 1 cup full of things if you want more go for it if the mixture is loose just pour into prepared pan & spread it out let dry & break into pieces if stiff use spoon & drop small amonuts on paper let dry store in air tight container ........GOOD LUCK....amf1234

    Is your grandson ok with almonds or cashews? I quit buying peanut butter a few years ago and now use almond butter or cashew butter whenever peanut butter is called for.

    Peanuts are a legume. Grows underground. Nut from trees. Almond butter is the closest substitute. How about Tahini made from sesame seeds.
