No, Bethanie, but it’s a great place to buy from and to learn from. Mark McAfee is the expert behind that site, and he is the one in the raw milk documentary that we love and learned SO much from. It’s called The Whole Truth about Milk: Raw vs Pasteurized. Wow. Since you live in a state where it’s against the law to buy raw milk, ordering from his store would be a good option! Or getting your own cow… ;O)

One of my friends buys organic almond butter in huge buckets from our wholesale buying club. I think she said when she divvies up the contents it’s equal to 14 quart jars…the bucket is $127, and that figures to $9/quart. A quart is a hefty sized amount of product for that price…I know the sun butter we buy through the same buying club used to figure to be about $5 something per jar. It’s a typical peanut butter sized container. Still…I know.

Aflatoxins are more prolific in grind-your-own peanut butters–such as some health food stores sell. This is because as the peanuts sit around, the mold grows. So it’s better to buy packaged peanut butter, made from peanuts grown in arid climates (less likely for mold problems)…less chance for contamination. I haven’t done the homework on which PB brands this would include though.
