Another way we’re “Bringing nutritious home with delicious” is our Unsweetened SoyNut Butters. There’s a chunky and a creamy variety and they’re both “net 1 carb.” That gives diabetics and those who wish to restrict sugar in their diets the peanutty taste they crave with ultra-low carbohydrates.

We talk a lot about cooking with our products as one of our unique advantages over other “alternatives.” But in any recipe where you want to control carbs, our unsweetened SoyNut Butter flavors are a great substitute for peanut butter flavor …  for instance in the yummy satay sauce recipe we posted here in the blog a few weeks back.

It’s no surprise to us that these peanut free and tree nut free peanut butter alternatives are big sellers for us, so give them a try. You’ll find them in our online store, or look in your local supermarket or healthy foods store.

You’ll see our slogan, “Bringing nutritious home with delicious” on every page of our web site. That’s because we believe both are equally important. And for those of you who need or want to live gluten free and are looking for substitutes, look no further than our SoyNut Butter and Southern Homestyle Crumbs.

The fact is, our SoyNut Butter and Southern Homestyle products are gluten free. Got a yen for the juicy taste of chicken, fish or pork dredged in crumbs and baked?  Our substitutes for bread crumbs, Southern Homestyle Corn Flake Crumbs and Tortilla Crumbs, bring out the flavor and mouthwatering taste without the gluten!

If you’re a fan of our SoyNut Butter and you haven’t tried our Crumbs, give them a try.  We think you’ll be glad you did.  To see our whole family of nutritious and delicious products, click here.

We welcome email and letters from our customers. You’ll find a link to contact us at the top of our website. And we encourage you to send your thoughts our way.

Over the years, we’ve received many testimonials from satisfied customers and it’s a pleasure to share a sampling with you.

“Dear SoyNut Butter ….

 On behalf of my 9 year old son, I just wanted to write and say THANK YOU.

 Several years ago he was having repeated bouts of mild nausea. It wasn’t enough to hospitalize him, but it was enough to cause discomfort and interrupt life. Through a great deal of trial and error, we discovered that it was one of his favorite foods that was doing this to him…….peanut butter. It was very sad to tell a six year old little boy that he could no longer eat something that he found to be so delicious – but for the sake of alleviating the nausea, he complied with the new house rule.

 Several weeks ago, while walking through the grocery store, my son noticed your product “Original Creamy SoyNut Butter” on the shelf. He also noticed the words “peanut free” on the label, and requested that we buy it. It has been love at first taste! He eats it on toast, he eats it with jelly, he eats it with honey; in short, he uses and enjoys your product every bit as much as he did peanut butter. The very next week he insisted that we buy another jar of it – even though we still had some at home – as he wanted to be sure that the grocer knew that this product had a following and that they should continue to keep stocking it.

 He says, “It makes me feel happy because I can finally eat something that tastes as good as peanut butter.”

 He’s also wondering if we can use it in recipes such as “peanut butter cookies” etc., and when will you be coming out with  a chocolate/SoyNut Butter cup candy bar???

Thank you!

Thank you Tim. And one of the awesome features of our SoyNut Butter is that it’s a peanut butter substitute you can cook with. You’ll see that we’re adding recipes to our blog regularly. We hope you’ll check them out!

You’ll see from our web site and from our labels that SoyNut Butter products, and our granolas are not only peanut and tree nut free, but they’re also made in peanut and tree nut free facilities.

According to the Food Allery Initiative organization (www.faiusa.org), 30-40% of people who have peanut allergy are also allergic to tree nuts. The list of tree nuts is defined by law to include:

•Almond
•Brazil nut
•Cashew
•Chestnut
•Hazelnut/Filbert
•Macadamia nut
•Pecan
•Pine nut (Pignolia nut)
•Pistachio
•Walnut

Why are all tree nuts commonly considered together? Again, from our friends at www.faiusa.org, the reason is that people are seldom allergic to just one kind of tree nut. That explains why allergists typically tell these patients to avoid all tree nuts.

Like peanut allergy, tree nut allergy isn’t something people outgrow. In fact only about 20 percent of peanut allergic children outgrow their allergy. And only about 9 percent of tree nut allergic children end up outgrowing this allergy.
