Non-US peanut butters typically have only one ingredient (peanuts) and therefore you get peanut oil separating out that needs to be stirred in. American peanut butter (at least the ‘popular’ brands) tend to be so full of preservatives and shit that they hold their state.
Made from Roasted Peanuts and Sugar, Contains 2% or Less of: Molasses, Fully Hydrogenated Vegetable Oils (Rapeseed and Soybean), Mono and Diglycerides, Salt.
Incorrect, hydrogenated is a synthesis artificial process that chemically alters them and turns them into dryer texture but it’s less healthy and more artificial. I avoid it.
it’s not the preservatives, it’s the hydrogenated oils that are added - basically they substitute some of the peanut oil that would separate out for oils that won’t separate (and stay hard, like a butter or like margarine)

It’s not just peanuts but it’s not really “preservatives and shit” either.

That’s a bubbler leaking hydrogen while submerged in the oil, and it’s mostly a fancy word for margarine.

even the “healthy” no-stir peanut butters do this
No salt? XD
You can get some brands which have a pinch of salt added, but in my experience, most brands don’t…
Of the pure pbs, I’ve found several. I think Richards and Kroger do.
