Sunbutter Rocks – You Better Recognize!
Written by Michele “Sun Buddy” Vieux

Recently heard at Invictus: “I want to try Paleo but it appears that they take all the fun out of eating.” My answer: BALDERDASH! Paleo is nutritious, delicious AND FUN!! Let’s use Sunbutter as an example.  

I used to be a hardcore peanut butter addict before I went Paleo. Oh how I missed that lovely legume paste smeared on an apple (or most anything for that matter). It was a staple in my diet. In fact, my motto used to be, “PB equals PR!” 

Sadly, I was forced to ditch the legumes and I began to enter a depression from PB withdrawals. Then I remembered something I’d had many years ago—SUNBUTTER! Sunbutter is a tasty peanut butter-like treat made from sunflower seeds. It comes in both creamy and crunchy varieties. 

My first encounter with Sunbutter occurred about seven years ago on a flight from Kansas City to Orlando when I purchased one of those $5 snacks on the plane. I immediately recognized its deliciousness. They served it with carrots and celery; I gobbled it right up. When I got home, I looked for it in stores but could never find it.  

Recently I went on the hunt for the amazing treat that touched my lips so many years ago and found that many grocery stores now stock the stuff—I’ve been hooked ever since. In fact, it makes me giddy.  

Ten reasons why Sunbutter rocks—you better recognize! 

1. It is Paleo, so it doesn’t upset my gut. 

2. It is oh so creamy (or crunchy). 

3. It melts in my mouth. 

4. It contains perfectly placed salt crystals to balance the creamy goodness. 

5.  It makes me happy when I’m blue. So happy, in fact, that I’ve actually cackled and clapped aloud when thinking about it. 

6. It can be used in any recipe that calls for peanut butter. 

7. It is an alternative for those with peanut allergies. 

8. It goes with everything! This is not a lie. I have tried it on most fruits and veggies as well as bacon! 

9. I can have it shipped to my door.  

10. If you order it online, it comes in five pound pails and they’ll throw in a rad tote bag!!
