I prefer most other nut butters to peanuts. They do have a toxic fungus potential that is higher in their raw form, and that is why most raw fooders steer clear. Also, as you see in the news a recent samonella problem is linked to 6 deaths so far from tainted peanuts. They seem to make me break out if I even have only a tablespoon or so, and I'm not prone to acne at all. You can make your own butters from almonds, cashews, macadamias, even sunflower seeds, which are a better buy than peanuts.
yeah, most legumes are harder to digest before you cook them, peanuts included. i've never seen raw pb anywhere.
I want to try the recipe listed here for the peanut butter cups (if you click my handle it is listed in my favorites). It calls for raw PB. Maybe I will just make them with almond butter! Thanks!
