Maisie Jane’s Organic Cashew Butter, 12 Oz

Great taste.
This is delicious. The problem was mixing it when it separated. The oil had separated so completely that it was hard to stir at first. Once I got it done has stayed mixed. I have been eating it by the spoonful it tastes just like fresh nuts maybe because it’s just cashews.

BUYER BEWARE!!!!!!! Cashew Brick!
~ Maisie Jane’s Organic Cashew Butter, 12 Oz ~I was looking forward to this expensive treat. The jar of ‘Creamy Cashew Butter’ was not creamy, at all. I opened the sealed jar to find a chuck of rock hard cashew ‘butter’ which was permanently separated from its oil. The oil was impossible to reincorporate back into the cashew brick!Oil separation from quality nut butters is not unusual and a simple stir with a butter knife is all you need to mix. Not true with Massieo Jane. If you happen to be a potter, This is like one step before leather hard clay.To add insult, they won’t give you your money back! I was even open to a replacement…….Don’t waste your money.If I could,ZERO STARS for this mess.

Very hard to stir
Personally, I get tired of plain peanut butter so I like to try other nut butters. The last time I ordered 365 brand of cashew butter and it was good, but I wanted to try this brand this time because everything I read about it sounded like it was worth trying, my first order came two days ago and Amazon packed it in a bag instead of a box so it got smashed and when I reached in the bag to I take it out I cut my finger. Amazon did not give me any trouble giving me a refund so I ordered it a second time. It came yesterday and I haven’t really had a chance to try it yet, but if you use any organic nut butter, you’re aware that it separates and needs to be stirred before you can use it. What I usually do with nut butters that need to be stirred is leave them upside down overnight and let the oil go to the bottom it usually makes it Easier to blend the oil and the actual butter. It took me a good 20 minutes to stir this cashew butter. I’m glad I have a strong butter knife to use because a flimsy knife would’ve broken. It was really difficult to stir . It was full of dried clumps, by the time I was done my hand was pretty damn tired. I just put it in the refrigerator and I’ll taste it tomorrow from what I read everybody enjoyed the taste so I’m looking forward to trying itOK, it’s the next morning. I just took it out of the refrigerator and it was worth the effort of that tedious stirring process. If you’re not familiar with organic nut butters, they have to be put in the refrigerator after you stir them or they will separate again. Yesterday I failed to mention two other reasons that I decided to try this particular brand. First, it does not have any palm oil and secondly it’s available for purchase with EBT.This is going to be my new brand. It was absolutely delicious. I will be buying it again and I fully recommend it.My first year of almond butter was much too oily even after I blended it as good as I could it remained very oily. This time it has a better consistency.——————————————This is my second time buying both of these butters, almond and cashew. I don’t always trust reviews, but mine are always going to be honest because I want you to know what you’re buying. In my first review, I commented how hard it was to stir the cashew butter this time it was a little easier, but the price went up from the first time I bought it. First I paid $11.60 now it is selling for $16.27.As for the almond butter it also went up in price. The first time I paid $15.77 and this time it is selling for $17.05 which went down from the price I paid which was over $18 when I purchased it.My first jar of almond butter was much too oily even after I blended it as well as I could, it remained very oily. This time it has a better consistency.Call me crazy that I’d be willing to spend that kind of money on a jar of nut butter, but I don’t gamble. I don’t go to bars so I’m willing to treat myself to something that I enjoy, but I don’t think it’s fair that they are raising their prices to this extent.I will continue to buy both of these products. I only wish they could be a little bit more Consistent With the texture of what is inside the jar and stop taking advantage of getting good reviews by making the price so exuberant that people have to second-guess themselves if they’re willing to pay that kind of money for a jar of nut butter. Should you choose to buy it and are willing to pay what they’re asking I can tell you you will enjoy it. I certainly do.

Dry compared to buying in store
I like this cashew Butter a lot but unfortunately when I ordered it from Amazon the nut butter is on the dry side. This is compared to when I buy it at Whole Foods. not sure how Amazon is storing products. It was not past expiration date.
