How the butter tasted:

LifeLike peanut butter tasted exactly how peanut butter should taste. The bold and full flavor was accompanied by a great consistency, making it no problem at all to spread this peanutpeanut butter cream on whole wheat or plain bread, or use it in smoothies or post-workout shakes.

When I used it in various no-bake recipes and then put it in the fridge, it set beautifully. If you're looking for a peanut butter that will absolutely delight your taste buds, LifeLike is the obvious choice.

Who makes the butter:

LifeLike is the family business of Libor Mačalík and his wife, Vendula, who have found our market lacking in quality butters.

This company combines quality, honesty and above all freshness, which is why you will find in the repertoire of this company not only peanutbut also many other nut butters, often combined with coconut or delicious chocolate.

Final rating:

I was really impressed with LifeLike butter. When it arrived to me, there was oil settled on top, indicating that the manufacturer did not use any stabilizers. I found the taste to be very good, adding it to various smoothies, porridges and post-workout shakes.

While you may argue that there are cheaper butters out there, with LifeLike you are 100% sure of the quality.

• Made in the Czech Republic

How the butter tasted:

Like the winner of our best butters comparison, Lucky Alvin has produced a really great product that you will love. The peanut flavour is quite strong and if you are not used to it, you may not like the butter very much. In that case, I recommend the peanut and chocolate combination that Lucky Alvin also makes, which is unrivalled in terms of taste.

Again, the consistency is beautifully creamy and smooth, so it's no problem spreading the butter, as well as adding it to smoothies or recipes.

Who makes the butter:

Lucky Alvin is a Czech company that makes peanut butters that are extremely popular in America. The only difference is that you won't find any low-quality ingredients, solidified fats, added salt, stabilizers or flavorings in these butters. All the products of this company are based on quality and purity, you can choose from 100% butters, butters with Belgian chocolate, or "sugarfree" variants.

Final rating:

Lucky Alvin is another excellent peanut butter from a Czech producer. This time, unfortunately, I consider the unavailability in a kilo pack to be a slight disadvantage, because the peanutI have quite a large consumption of peanut butter, so I don't want to buy it in 330g packs. Surely every manufacturer should offer small packs, because not everynot everyone is able to eat that much butter, however, the large one is the only advantage.

On the other hand , I must praise Lucky Alvin for not using unnecessary plastic, all butters are in glass. But this translates logically into a higher price when budgeted per 1kg.

Edit 12.10.2019 - We have just published a detailed review on several Lucky Alvin nut butters, you can read it here.

Benefits:

• Made in the Czech Republic
• Contains nothing but peanuts
• Available in two different pack sizes - 250g and 550g
• Excellent taste

Disadvantages:

• Higher price per 1kg compared to competitors

How the butter tasted:

Big Boy peanut butter cream impressed me taste-wise, althoughI found its taste a little sweeter than competing butters. This is in no way due to any added sugar, which the manufacturer has concealed, but it's probably due to the different origins of the peanuts.

In terms of flavour, the butter is definitely one of the best, it doesn't completely solidify in the fridge either, and it spreads well at all times.

Who makes the butter:

This peanut cream is made by the popular Czech company Big Boy Butter, which specializes not only in peanutpeanut butters, but also protein bars, freeze-dried fruit, and whole nuts for sale.

The company prides itself on quality, keeping stock to a minimum and producing most of its butters up to in response to an order, so you can be 100% sure of the freshness and quality of the butter you order.

Final rating:

Another very hilarious butter that has absolutely nothing to complain about apart from the higher price. Since this company does not offer a kilo pack, when you calculate the price per 1 kg, you end up with a higher price.On the other hand, Big Boy Butter doesn't use any unnecessary plastics, which we like.

Benefits:

• 100% peanut content
• Czech producer
• No added substances
• Organic quality

Disadvantages:

• Higher price

How we liked the butter:

Vilgain's peanut butter definitely did not disappoint us in terms of taste. The mild version in particular tastes absolutely delicious, and you can definitely tell that the manufacturer has switched to a different type of peanut. However, if you've tasted the original crunchy version in the past, after trying the new version you'll probably notice that it contains far fewer pieces of peanuts. I consider this to be a rather unfortunate decision with the crunchy version, although the butter is still delicious in terms of flavour.

Who makes the butter:

I wrote in the introduction that many people are more familiar with the brand Vilgain under the name Aktin. This is due to the company's rebranding due to expansion abroad, but despite the new name, all of the brand's products retain the quality you've long come to expect. Today, Aktin is one of the most popular manufacturers and distributors of sports supplements in the Czech Republic.

Final evaluation:

Vilgain Peanut Butter BIO is the perfect choice for anyone looking for a truly high quality peanut butter for any purpose. It's never easy to objectively evaluate the taste, but our experience along with hundreds of positive reviews can definitely be taken as a good indicator that you'll definitely find your way with this butter.

Pros:

• 100% peanut content
• Made in Brno
• No added substances, salt or sugar
• Great taste

Disadvantages:

• 1 kg pack size only

How the butter tasted:

The peanut butter from Czech Virus tasted absolutely fabulous. The flavour is mild and the consistency is beautifully creamy, so it spreads very well on, for example, wholemeal bread. The flavour is also full and completely natural, so you can tell that the butter has not been sweetened or flavoured in any way.

Compared to the competition, I have to say that it doesn't settle too much oil on the surface, so you don't have to stir every time you use it.

Who makes the butter:

Peanut butter is produced by the well-known company Czech Virus, which is famous for the controversial bodybuilder Filip Grznár and his former sparring partner Pavel Beran. Since 2012, when the first idea was born in the minds of the creators, the company has been based on quality products without unnecessary chemistry.

Among the sponsored athletes, besides Filip and Pavel, there are also Aleš Bursa and Jiří Tkadlčík. All raw materials used by Czech Virus in the production of its products originate in the EU.

Final evaluation:

Czech Virus has once again produced a very good butter, which is very good value for money for the company, tastes great and at the same time hasYou are guaranteed the best possible quality ingredients, because Czech Virus does not use any cheap substitutes.

I definitely consider the lack of a smaller package to be a minor drawback, if you have never eaten peanut butter or just don't have the consumption, it is pointless to buy a 1000g pack. Otherwise, I definitely recommend the butter.

Benefits:

• 100% peanut content
• One of the cheapest butters on the market
• High quality

Disadvantages:

• Only available in 1000g packs

How the butter tasted:

To be honest, I was a bit skeptical about this butter at first, but after tasting it, I changed my mind.

I liked the butter, but I have to admit that compared to previous products in this ranking, the taste was not as pronounced. The consistency is very good, you can spread it on wholemeal bread, for example, as well as use it in cooking or in various porridges.

Who makes the butter:

MyProtein is a supplement brand that originated in the UK. Since its inception, the company has collected various awards and the goods have expanded to America and other continents. And it certainly has no small ambitions - it wants to be the world's largest supplement manufacturer by 2020.

What's also interesting is the way it creates quality products at a minimal price: It invests most of its revenue in automating production, which later brings lower production costs.

Final assessment:

I dare say that Myprotein's peanut butter is popular quite rightly. Although its taste is not the most distinctive, it still combines low price and high quality very well. If you are a peanut butter lover but don't want to to invest unnecessary amounts of money in food supplements, definitely choose Peanut Butter from Myprotein.

Advantages:

• 100% peanut content
• Great price
• Good taste

Disadvantages:

• Only a kilo pack

How the butter tasted:

Bulk Powders' peanut butter has a full flavor and a beautifully creamy consistency that makes it easy to spread.

It's darker than, for example, Czech Virus' butter, which may be due todue to the use of peanuts with the skin, but this information is not confirmed by the manufacturer anywhere on its website. If peanut butter is left unnoticed for some time, it will create a layer of oil on the surface, but then all you have to do is stir it and it's back to its original consistency.

Who makes the butter:

This butter is made by Bulk Powders, a certified sports nutrition manufacturer from the UK. In this brand's repertoire you can find all products without unnecessary chemicals, dyes and other artificial additives.

The quality of the company is evidenced, for example, by the fact that the whey used to make the protein comes from comes from cow farms in EU countries where cows can graze freely on pasture and are therefore grass-fed.

Final rating:

I would put Os Bulk Powders peanut butter on roughly the same level as Myprotein's peanut butter. It has perhaps a slightly stiffer consistency, as a result of which it can goHowever, this is not an extremely big problem.

What I find interesting is that even after a few days, no oil settles on the surface, which is definitely a big plus for most consumers. If you are looking for good value for money, I definitely recommend this butter.

Benefits:

• Good price
• 100% peanut content
• Contains no added substances

Disadvantages:

• Only 1000g pack
• Stiffer consistency

How the butter tasted:

I found TPW's butter to be quite stiff compared to other products, it didn't spread as well as, for example, the butter from Czech Virus. Therefore, I used it more in various recipes and breakfast porridges, as the heat changed its consistency.

But the taste itself is full and natural, there are no artificial substances, so I definitely recommend the butter.

Who makes the butter:

This peanut butter is made by a relatively new British company called The Protein Works, which was founded in 2012 and has Since then , it has been producing innovative nutritional supplements that have won dozens of different awards each year. They base their supplements primarily on quality, but at the same time price is also very important to them so that everyone can afford similar supplements.

Final rating:

TPW has come to the market with a very tasty butter that stands out for its good price and full flavor. Unfortunately, there is a downside to only one pack size, if you don't want the whole 1000g, you're simply out of luck.

Also the consistency is not very good, the butter is more suited for cooking and baking than for regular consumption.

Benefits:

• Contains only peanuts
• You won't find any trans fats or added substances
• Good price

Disadvantages:

• Only available in 900g packs

How the butter tasted:

There is not much to fault with the Fitness Authority butter. It's easy to spread, tastes completely natural and, as with previous butters, you'll develop a complete addiction to it without blinking an eye. In terms of consistency it was perfect, neither too runny nor too thick- it goes great with everything.

Who makes the butter:

This delicious peanut butter is made by Fitness Authority, whose supplements are designed bydesigned by the best experts in nutrition, food, packaging technology, legislation and pharmaceuticals.

In the Czech Republic, this brand is best known for its Xtreme Napalm Pre-Contest pre-workout, which its composition demolishes its competitors, but definitely has much more to offer. In the company's repertoire you can find proteins, amino acids, delicious peanut butters and brutal pre-workouts.

Final rating:

Fitness Authority's peanut butter is definitely a good choice, if only for its great taste. The slight downside is the somewhat stiffer consistency compared to the competition, but it still spreads well. Unfortunately, the butter is only available in a 900g pack, which is smaller than mostThe butter still works out well in terms of price per kg. I can therefore only recommend it.

Benefits:

• Extremely tasty butter
• Contains only high quality ingredients that deliver great taste
• No added salt, preservatives or oils
• Minimal simple sugars

Disadvantages:

• Relatively high price compared to unflavored butters
• More caloric than 100% peanut butter

How the butter tasted:

We included SizeAndSymmetry's peanut butter in our ranking in caseIf you don't like the distinct taste of peanuts, but still want to try a butter like this. By adding honey, coconut oil and cocoa, the peanut flavor is partially suppressed and the butter gets a very good taste. In terms of consistency, I found it a little too runny; if you spread it on baked goods, it may melt. I therefore recommend adding it more to yogurt or post-workout smoothies.

Who makes the butter:

Sizeandsymmetry Body Sport Nutrition is an up-and-coming German supplement company. Although it has only been in the sports supplement market for a short time (since 2013 to be precise), it is a very promising company that is striving to create high-quality supplements that meet the high expectations of professional athletes.

The very first supplement launched by this company was the whey protein CFM80 SizeandSymmetry, today in their repertoireHowever, you will find everything from amino acids and fat burners to nut butters and protein porridges in their portfolio.

Final rating:

If you don't like the taste of peanut butter on its own, we definitely recommend giving this product a try. Even though it is not a 100% peanut butter, you won't find any low-quality ingredients such as thickeners, artificial flavors, dyes, or anything like that. Unfortunately, you'll have to pay a little extra for this butter.

Advantages:

• Unbeatably low price
• 100% peanut content
• No chemicals or added additives

Disadvantages:

• Use of husks in production
• Bitter taste

How the butter tasted:

GymBeam's peanut butter didn't impress me much taste-wise. It is darker than the others, probably due to the use of the skins, and it also tastes distinctly bitter. The oil deposited on the surface had a rather interesting color and consistency that I haven't seen in any other butter. The butter itself was then quite stiff and harder to spread.

Who makes the butter:

GymBeam is a company that manufactures and e-sells nutritional supplements, fitness apparel, and workout accessories. GymMyBeauty is a brand of gym products and products that are used to create and sell gym products, and to provide a range of products and services for the health and fitness industry. GymBeam is also a manufacturer and retailer of its own brand of nutritional supplements.

Today their offer includes proteins from various sources, fat burners, amino acids and BCAAs, even vitamins, minerals and the latestIt also includes fitness food, snacks and superfoods such as peanut butters, chia seeds, quinoa and many more.

Final rating:

A fairly specific and frankly not very tasty butter, but one that will still find its followers. I consider the main benefit for most people to be the low price and the use of only peanuts, which I think is essential. I would definitely not buy peanut butters that contain ingredients other than peanuts.
