What is peanut butter?
Next
time you are at the grocery store, check out the peanut butter. A
couple brands list the ingredients as simply peanuts and salt. Other brands
have much longer list including malto-something and partially
hydrogenated whatever.
Now look at the section of the label that
lists carbohydrates, sugar, fat. Amazing, the numbers are essentially
the same. I certainly don't think they metabolize the same.
Then
again, people in China were deliberately putting melamine in food
because it fooled the standard tests for protein content.
