Some brands do add that stuff, but not all
Comment on Peanut butter and hummus are the same thing.

They add stuff to peanut butter to keep the oil from separating, and they add a bunch of sugar. It’s ground finer too.

I literally never bought pb that isn’t 100% peanuts. Sometimes with a bit of salt. Stop buying junk.

It’s not automatically “junk”, it’s flavored.
It just happens to be the most popular flavor in the U.S.
I like my spicy red pepper hummus, other people like their extra-oil-and-sugar smooth consistency non-separating peanut butter.
It’s like the difference between corn flakes and frosted flakes.

Junk, as in, junk food. Unhealthy. I also buy salted caramel pb sometimes just for fun. But you shouldn’t make that part of your regular breakfast…
