PB2 (video post).

by

Once upon a time.

Back in the early days of Miz (when she was younger, had fewer wrinkles & the Tornado was a new walker) she wrote about a brand!new!product! PB2.

She had just discovered it & she was smitten.

(here is the link to the Protein Pancakes I mention in the video)

And then PB2 was everywhere & we all embraced its pure, potent, powdery perfection.

(cue movie montage of PBjoyment)

And then (DRAMATIC PAUSE) the CHOCOLATE PB was created.

And then (PREGNANT PAUSE) Miz finally got her mits on some.

  1. OK, i have to confess that I have seen people refer to PB2 on multiple blogs without ever knowing what the heck it is!! I am going to go to whole foods here and see if they have it today! So intrigued!

  2. Long time; no comment!
    I’m sorry, I say.
    To show appreciation,
    this is not the way.
    Your posts are so awesome
    (as is PB2),
    but at least I was able
    to Twitter @ you!
    Now off to the big
    protein hunt I will go
    (for I still never do
    get enough, as you know).

    Will one day try the chocolate variety. (My thoughts: good for light wheat bread and froyo mix in. SIGH.)

  3. If it’s gluten free I want it! If not … well … I still WANT it but shouldn’t have it sent my way 😉

  6. I’d never seen that first video.

    Look at YOU sitting down in the kitchen 🙂

    I would love to try
    PB2 I don’t know why.
    I’m not a peanut butter fan
    Learn to like it? Yes I can!

    (I want tattoo pictures too, please)

    Bea

  7. I’ve never seen PB2
    I want to win some now from you.

    (how’s that?)

    I hope you had a great weekend.

    I ran my 5k, Miz!!!

  8. good morning!
    Well, I can’t say I woke up and thought I’VE MADE A HUGE TAT’MISTAKE 😉

    Love the Seuss.

    More when the morning is going.

    Off for decaf & some choc.PB2 sprinkles on top.

    Yes.

    For serious.

  9. That actually sounds very tempting! I am currently OBSESSSED with almond butter and banana sandwiches, so I suspect another lower calorie nut source might be a good distraction.

    Sorry, no rhyme this morning but am loving other people’s contributions! Will check back and see what people come up with. You’re such an inspiration on the poetry!

  10. I have not seen this before.
    I would try it and want more.

    Do you really dump it into your smoothies and shakes?
    Great idea for more protein and fat!

  11. I love the PB2! I was nervous I was going to hate it when I got the first jar and I just recently ordered four more 😉

  12. Well, course I hadda go and check out their website. If you order online there is a coupon!

    Looks like gluten/dairy/soy free.

    Not sure what I would do with it. The birds liked the chia, maybe the squirrels would like the pb2?

    =D
    THANKS FOR THE REMINDER ABOUT THE GLUTEN DAIRY AND SOY FREE. AND YESYESYES THERE’S A COUPON AND A SMALL CHANCE THIS GIVE SHALL INCLUDE CANADA. IM WAITING TO HEAR BACK.

  14. How did you manage to grow more beautiful and wonderful after the past few years? I’m not just saying that because I want to win PB2. Even though I do. REAL BAD.

  15. I’ve seen this topic come up on here before, yet I’ve still to find PB2,3,or 4 anywhere. And now you dangle a chocolate AND PB carrot? Must i hunt the elusive PB2? Or shall I win a new friend.

    This I would like to try – chia not so much.

  17. I have looked in every store I go to for PB2 and I’ve never found it. That chocolate sounds great.

    Oh, and Miz – I’ll be in the Dallas area for part of the summer. My hometown is about an hour west of the big D.

  18. Fun walk down memory lane!
    I remember that post like it were yesterday.

    🙂

  20. I’m not sure that’s for me. I like my peanut butter and I like the chocolatey I’ve found, and I’ve already got a Reese’s tastealike.

    Just call me the exception that proves the rule.

  22. I’m a peanut butter freak. I tried PB2 once and it just didn’t fix my peanut butter craving. Maybe I should just try it in stuff instead of wanting it to be peanut butter in and of itself.

  23. I Luuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurve PB2, but the chocolate sounds amazing! I usually use PB2 to make Thai-style peanut sauces and PB-banana milkshakes. **crosses fingers**

  24. okay, so after that first video post i ordered myself some PB2 and some choc PB2 and then i fell in LOVE! seriously, i love love love this stuff. thanks for introducing me to it! i even blogged about my love of it recently. thanks again!

  25. This is definitely one of those things I would love to try out but don’t want to commit to buying off the internet until I know I’m gonna like it. (Just like the chia seeds) And thus far I haven’t found any stores that sell this… sigh.

  26. How about a haiku?

    Consume P B 2
    With spoon, banana, finger
    Either way, happy mouth

    To heck with meeting for coffee! I’ll bring a jar of chocolate PB2 and two spoons 🙂

  29. lynn that made me LAUGH!
    And charlotte? I know.
    Come visit and Ill share mine!

    I just did an outoftheblue radio show.
    FUNFUNFUN.

    Ill link it if I can find the podcast.

    cant believe the Tornado quietly complied…

  30. I have to say I’m, not a huge fan of the PB2, but then I tried a sample of the chocolate PB2 and OMG! LOOOOOOVE. I’ve got an order en route to me now but I could always use more!

  32. I think I will call around and try to find this today- I thought about it before from your earlier post, then forgot. I can’t wait!

  33. I have seen it all over the blogs, but not in the stores. I will certinaly try it.

  34. I’ve seen PB2 and Chocolate PB2 mentioned on all my favorite fitness blogs. I’ve been dying to try some for months, but never seem to get around to ordering it. Then I find out that it is made in a town just an hour and a half from where I live – how could this secret be in my own backyard???? I hope I win, but if I don’t, I will be ordering some tomorrow.

  38. I would love to try PB2. I have actually gone to their website, put it in the cart and then the shipping hits and I just cannot pull the trigger. Budget just will not allow it yet and have not found it anywhere locally to me. So I would LOVE to win this.

    Have a great day!

  40. Omg, this sounds so tasty! I can’t find any in my local grocery store (i’m gonna try whole foods next – which is unfortunately a trek) but I REALLY want to try this!

  41. UPDATE FROM BELL PLANTATION:

    The USA winner will receive a TWELVE PACK of PB2.

    (I know. How nice is that)

    No podcast of the radio show (*cue collective sigh*)

    And yes.
    I really do put PB in the coffe.

    (As per yer tweeted DMs)

  42. Pick me! Pick me!

    I’ve been wanting to try this stuff for a long time, but you have to buy a boatload of it if you order online (my only option here in BFE for a lot of things), and I’m always afraid I won’t like it!

  43. I can honestly say, I’ve never heard of it, nor have I seen it in the stores. I really like the low fat. Are the calories lower? I like PB with my apples, I’d be interested in tasting the difference.

  44. oooh…. as much trouble as I have getting all my protein in after my RNY, this looks like an amazing product! I definitely want this!

  45. Nut butters I do so adore
    For fatty goodness I am a wh–
    STRIKE THAT…
    I get my good fats, that’s for sure.

    Maybe too much, for as far as I run,
    fat loss on my thighs– allas, there’s none.
    PB + chocolate– sounds like a sin
    But a better alternative! I’ll try to win.

  50. If I eat the PB2
    Will I soon look just like you??

    Did I miss where you posted exercise your routine?

    I can’t find it by searching.

    Thanks.

  51. In response to your comments BELL PLANTATION (the PB2 peeps) SAYS:

    We have a 100% guarantee policy – it is a strong guarantee because we believe in our product!
    (all the details, address, phone numbers etc are on site)

    Next, we are not in Whole Foods yet – but ask your readers to definitely let their store know they need to carry the product. Also, on our website, click on “where to purchase” and put in their zip code – there may be a store near them.

    Have you heard of http://www.netrition.com? They advertise as The Internet’s premier nutrition superstore! They sell PB2 and Chocolate PB2 for 3.99 per jar. If I’m not mistaken, shipping on 1 jar is 4.95.

    Also, for your friends who live in Canada, ask them to check out http://www.thelowcarbgrocery.com
    They also carry PB2 and chocolate PB2.

  53. I’ve never tried PB2 but it sounds so versatile – PB dipping sauce, PB Greek yogurt, PB sandwiches, yum!!

  55. I would LOVE to try this stuff! They manage to take one of my favorite foods and put it in powder form? I mean, I might never eat solid foods again.

  56. I have Kim’s same question (#52) and if it’s PB2 then count me in for buying my own!!

  57. Love PB2 but have not tried the chocolate. Guess I will have to include some with my next order…

  58. Is it really that good? I’m so skeptical, but probably just because I love my regular peanut butter so very much. I hope I win so I can try it.

  59. Jess, I know. I LOOOVE my peanut butter and quite honestly dont use this all that often on toast, bagels etc.

    Love “making” it (the regular) for fruit (perhaps because I control the texture & spreadability) and ADORE tossing it in everything else I make/bake where traditional peanut butter wouldnt work well.

  62. It felt as though you were rhyming just to me.
    I want to try this and am far too cheap 🙂

    PICK ME!!

  63. I’m dying to try any version of PB2- but can’t talk myself into buying that much of anything (the whole case)!

  65. NERD ALERT. I totally do bring food when I travel and 99.999% of it is protein.
    It’s so simple to find healthy carbs/fats (pretzels, fruit, oats, fish etc) but I struggle to get enough protein on the road which makes me CONSTANTLY HUNGRY.

    I do bring powder and (waitforit) beef jerky in my bag most of the time.

  69. This sounds like a dream! I MUST be the winner as I have looked all over the state with no luck. If it tastes as good as I imagine, it will definitely be a staple for our 8-day round trip drive to visit family this summer. And although I think it will be disgusting, I am curious to try it in the coffee as well:)

  72. What a great giveaway! How are you feeling today? I was able to check your progress yesterday on your twitter w/o signing up (afraid to commit to yet another timesuck) and the last pic looked awesome!

  73. OK. Everybody keeps teasing me with this chocolate stuff and I can’t find it and I can’t seem to win it. So yes, please enter me in the drawing. I’d love to have some. 🙂

  74. OK, I have read about this in the past but not sure where or when. I really want to know if this can compliment my addiction to Power Peanut butter which I have every morn on my bread. I love it cause of the extra protein in it & flax too! BUT, I NEED SOMETHING LIKE PB2 TO ADD TO OTHER FOODS WITHOUT ALL THE CALORIES/FAT AND PORTABLE TOO.. HOW AWESOME IS THAT!

    So, MizFit, I am not a creative type & rhymes do not come to me like they do to you but I WANT TO WIN THIS SO MUCH THAT I AM GOING TO TRY A RHYME.. OH NO!

    Oh me Oh my
    PB2 on the fly
    No truffles for me
    More muscles with PB
    PB2, the way to go
    PB2 for those in the know
    Pls MizFit, I am so intrigued
    PB2 & me in need
    PB2 sneaking into the workout bag
    PB2 on my Oxygen mag
    PB2 here & there
    PB2 everywhere

    OK, I tried!! Don’t laugh at me!

    I will search it out no matter what!

  75. I still haven’t tasted
    oh, the sad days I’ve wasted

    I love anything “nut”
    that won’t enlarge my butt

    Thanks for your wit
    Love ya, Mizfit

  77. I sent you a DM on Twitter about not being able to view your site, but now I can! So disregard the DM. 🙂

    Chocolate PB2 sounds YUMMY! I would love to try it.

  78. You and your weird foods 🙂

    I still would love to try.
    Although you & beef jerky makes me cry.

    Thanks for all you do for us!

    Lynda

  80. I’ve heard of the product but have yet to try. Mostly, because I still have one jar of the real stuff left that I bought on sale like … 2-3 years ago. LOL When that’s gone, I’ll probably go looking. Yeah, I don’t eat PB too often. I eat the lightly salted dry roasted peanuts a lot though. Mmmm.

  81. That looks amazing! I could eat the entire jar in one sitting

    Id mock you Jen and say:

    but it’s POWDER! 🙂

    But that powder? kinda tasty off the spoon 🙂

  82. OH. MY. GOSH.
    This sounds like absolute *bliss* – I’m a peanut-butter-by-the-spoonful type of gal (no joke – I am eating pb crackers right now) and I would love to try this!!!

  83. Oh, the things I could do with choco PB2!!

    And I’m lovin’ the pics of the long-awaited tattoo!

  85. Peanut butter is not allowed in my house because I *WOULD* eat it way too often. With my fingers. Straight outta the jar. It’s on the list with stuff like marshmallow fluff, frosting, caramel, etc.

    I have been intrigued by PB2 and might just have to give it a try. Now chocolate PB2 – that sounds heavenly! Miz – you live in Austin too, right? Can you find it locally or do you have to order it?

    And last, a limerick:
    There once was a girl named Quix
    Who wanted to try PB powder she could mix
    Into pancakes, muffins, cookies, or the like
    Without having to ride 100 miles to burn it off on her bike
    Please help a crazy girl get her kicks!

    Yeah…my limerick muscles are weak…oh well.

  86. um…I did totally stalk the tweets yesterday, i admit it. I told Carlos to leave me alone, cozied up to the laptop & refreshed about every 7.5 minutes to get a dose of the tatoo’ing 🙂 Don’t worry, I DON’T know where ya live!

    I WANNA WIN I WANNA WIN I love me some PB2

  87. Is this like Better’n Butter? Because I discovered that stuff in LA one summer and ate like a jar a week …

  88. PB2 sounds really good.
    Love to win it? Yep, I would!
    (Missed the tweeting of the ‘too–
    The twitter pix I’ll have to go and view!)

  89. I just got my first order of PB2 and have been using it in my protein shakes ever since – yum! Then this weekend I tried the choco PB2 – even yummier! I am hooked.

    But I’m confused on the recipe you link to – I don’t see the PB2 in it?

    • in the video I mention that I add the PB2 to the protein pancake batter…
      and pubsgal? Im gonna do a shortshort video of shot of it next week—although Im really surprised how not red or irritated looking it is at all even now!

  90. I want it!!!

    I need it!!!

    Lol, seriously though I haven’t seen it around here and would love to try it!

  92. I love PB2 and the Chocolate has definitely become an addiction. Actually, need to order me another batch. Never thought to add it to my coffee!!

  93. Hmm . . . I have to confess that I don’t eat a lot of PB. And when I do, I have an unholy love affair with Skippy. I know, I know. That’s part of the reason I don’t eat it very often, LOL. But I might have to see if there’s a store near me that carries the Chocolate PB2. I could get down with the chocolate in coffee idea. 😉

  94. I recently talked about this stuff in my blog. I have a problem with eating entire jars of peanut butter in one sitting, so PB2 seems like a good alternative for me. However, I have weird complexes about buying things online. When is this stuff going to be put in stores?

  98. Oh, forgot a rhyme!

    To PB2,
    I am so new
    and now I can win a jar from YOU!
    A new addition of a flavor I adore,
    would help me win the snacking war.
    I’m so wanting to try the PB2,
    and hope to love it
    JUST LIKE YOU!

  102. I love PB2 but I never had the chocolate PB2.. I could so be BFF’s with that!

    YOU are the Bomb for sharing!

    This is some kinda wonderful!
    Great Giveaway.. and I am sooo THERE!!!
    Leslie

  104. ooh, i think the choc one tastes more like pb than the regular one…. am i crazy? probably 🙂

    i just used pb2 to make some crackers recently!

  106. Popping by briefly to share in the PB2 love. And the chocolate PB2 love! I’m going through some PB2 withdrawal right now…

  107. Oh my…am I too late to enter? I LOVE PB2. First heard about it on your blog and ordered it several times. Sadly enough, I’ve had to cut back and no more online nut butter orders. 🙁 Would love to have PB2 back in my life. Thanks for the giveaway Miz!

  109. Ordered some on the website. Trying for the first time. I hopped over there and watched the three video winners and it made my mouth water. I hope I love it cuz I love peanut butter.
