Start your day with a warm "Bear Hug"!
For some of us, the time between breakfast and lunch is the longest we'll go during the day without eating. Kraft Peanut Butter melted on warm toast (a Kraft Peanut Butter Bear "hug") is an easy and delightful breakfast that provides a great jumpstart to the morning!
How do we make Canada's favourite Peanut Butter?
To get Kraft Peanut Butter's delicious peanutty taste we buy high quality peanuts, put them through 3 different quality checks and roast them to perfection to bring out their best roasted flavour! After they pass through Kraft’s special milling process, the mixture is placed in our recognizable jar and sealed with Kraft’s foil flavour seal for an unbeatably rich smooth peanut butter taste.
