The biggest is natural has no added sugars. All the peanut oil in natty PB is natural and has no additives or preservatives. Its just plain old peanuts grinded down to PB.
If you compare the labels, look for Partially Hydrogenated Oils. This is the biggest difference in Natural vs. Regular PB. Natural peanut butters do not contain partially hydrogenated oils, a.k.a Trans Fat.
You have to look in the ingredient list for it, because if you look at the label to see the percentage of Trans Fat in regular peanut butter you will see 0. The reason is that the FDA proposed a rule that indicated that trans fat amounts of less than .5g cannot be accurately measured and will be listed on the label as 0. Personally I think that is misleading and bull???? if you ask me. I don't care how insignificant it might be, consumers should see a percentage regardless, because most consumers don't read the ingredient labels, and wouldn't know that partially hydrogenated oils is Trans Fat.
Just spoke with a fellow freak about this and just wanted to share to everyone what really is going on with PB and what to watch for.
