Barney Butter Giveaway – Yum

THE BARNEY BUTTER GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED.  THANK YOU FOR PLAYING.

Have you tried Barney Butter?  It’s an all natural almond butter that’s yummy and good for you too, with less than half the saturated fat of peanut butter.  Perfect for folks with peanut allergies.   It’s even gluten free!   It’s no wonder Oprah’s a fan.

Read on for your chance to win two 16 ounce jars of Barney Butter – one smooth, one crunchy – and 7 individual snack packs, one for each day of the week. 

Like this, but more stuff

I discovered Barney Butter through my friend Dawn, who is actually president of the company.  After she shared samples with all her friends, I became a devoted customer, and was glad to see they carry Barney Butter at my local Whole Foods so I don’t have to keep mooching.  I like that Barney Butter is naturally no-stir, meaning the oils don’t separate and rise to the top.

I especially love that I don’t have to refrigerate it after opening.  I prefer my nut butters room temperature for maximum spreadability (that’s totally a word).  Before discovering Barney Butter, I once started a small fire in my microwave while attempting to loosen up some chilly peanut butter, failing to notice there was still a bit of silver foil left on the rim.  With Barney Butter, my kitchen is actually a safer place.  But enough about me.

To enter the giveaway, just leave a comment below explaining how you’d eat your Barney Butter.  Would you spread it on an apple, make a sandwich, or eat it straight from the jar?   For more ideas, check out BarneyButter.com, which has a really impressive selection of recipes, from appetizers to desserts.  I’m a huge fan of the Noodle Stir-Fry with Spicy Almond Butter Sauce.   I tweaked it based on ingredients I had in the house…


And voila!

It was a big hit, even with my toddler.  Finally, a Barney she can love who is not an annoying purple dinosaur.

The giveaway is open from Tuesday, June 12 through Tuesday, June 19.  The winner will be chosen using Random.org and announced on the blog, so make sure you subscribe.

Use my fancy new share buttons to spread the word about the giveaway to friends.

    I would give my boys the individual packs and hide the jars. I would pull them out after the boys fall asleep. I would turn the tv on low and watch a wonderful show while eating some chocolate bars dipped into the barney butter. Bliss!

    My son loves “ants on a log.” I imagine that Barney Butter in place of our normal peanut butter would be a welcome change.

    I love Barney Butter! I’ve only had it a few times because its hard to find around here but wow!
    I miss peanut butter but with Barney Butter around, I don’t at all!
    How do I like to eat it?
    On apples.
    In satay and related ‘peanut’ sauce dishes.
    In homemade chocolate ice cream (raw milk or coconut milk based).
    On romaine lettuce pieces.
    Straight out of the jar.
    LOVE IT!

    First choice is out of the jar with a spoon, that’s for sure! But my very favorite way to enjoy Barney Butter is definitely on top of my oatmeal. This nut butter melts on top of war oats like no other, it is amazingly delicious!
    What a great giveaway, fingers crossed here :-)

    I just tried this in my food with love box. Delicious. I ate it on a banana. Yummy!

    My husband would eat it all from the jar in one day if I didn’t hide it! My 4-yr old daughter’s daycare doesn’t allow peanuts or peanut butter, so I make her almond butter and jelly sandwiches for lunch occasionally. She loves them too! That’s how I’d use it!

    My son has peanut allergies so I have been on the look out for a good nut butter substitute. He loves it on apples, celery and rice cakes.
    Thanks!

    Barney Butter is great in a smoothie w/almond milk, banana, almond extract and ice. I really wish BB didn’t cost nearly ten dollars a jar….sigh.

    I have never tried this kind. Would love to see what the difference is and if my son would like it, as he is a huge PBJ fan!

    My daughter is allergic to peanuts and we have yet to find a great substitute for peanut butter that is delicious and this sounds fabulous! I would love to make a sandwich for her with this so that she can have “PB and J” with her cousin at Grandma’s house.

    Yum! I would LOVE to try Barney Butter. My sons and husbands are HUGE peanut butter fans and it would be fun to try out a new twist.

  23. Posted June 16, 2012 at 12:01 pm | Permalink

    I would eat it with oatmeal or with granola and banana!

  24. Posted June 16, 2012 at 7:56 pm | Permalink

    this is my first time hearing about it! We usually buy a local grocer’s peanut butter with flax seed. This one sounds yummy too though :)
