(Meridan Peanut butter from H&B) is 500cals?!?!?!? holy ****...

Is that right or have my scales got issues?

think your scales are fcuked , unless you got some really big spoons.lol

unless your right in the oily stuff at the top , i usually get about 3 tablespoons to 100g ish

it is a new tub i just bought so there it is a bit oily at the top. but it says 100g - 500cals on the tub, and i measure one tablespoon as 0.1kg which is 100grams... sooooooooo anyhoo,

Mines 580 per 100g.. How big is the tub? If its normal 340g size, empty it all out and divide into 3 equal portions, just over 100gs.

Did you remove the weight of the spoon in your weighing?

it is very calorie dense , i avoid it.

My posts are all my opinion and based on current knowledge/understanding.

yes i removed the weight of the pot that goes on the scales.

The tub is 1kg. I like it as it fills me up, and trying to get some fats into my diet.

If your scales have 0.1kg resolution, a reading of 0.1kg will be obtained for any weight between 50g & 150g which means that your scales are effectively useless.

I think 2 tablespoons of the all natural stuff that I buy is just under 200 calories. I'm out of it right now, but I can tell you that the almond butter I have is 180 for 2 tablespoons (30g). I know for a fact that there is something wrong in your equation there... most likely your scale/resolution is misleading you (as mentioned above). 1 Tbsp is DEFINITELY NOT 100g... no way in hell... it's more like 15g.

PB is definitely calorie dense... but 100g is a LOAD of the stuff. I'm not sure that I could eat all that in one sitting (okay well I probably could... ).
