Product Information

However, Kirkland doesn’t make their own well-known and loved organic peanut butter; a third-party facility does. Who is this third-party manufacturer? If you haven’t heard, Costco pulled the Kirkland organic peanut butter from the shelves in the early summer of 2021. Naturally More only uses the highest-quality ingredients to create their products and are vegan, GMO-free, organic, gluten-free, dairy-free, cholesterol-free, and contain no-trans fat. Now, why do we think Naturally More could be the manufacturers of Kirkland’s organic peanut butter? The simple answer is, soft pretzels are often coated in butter. So, if this is the case, they are not vegan. However, this means some may be coated in margarine, which is a more affordable option for some brands than butter.

Meanwhile, none of the products in their Chocolate Covered Pretzels collection are dairy-free. Sadly, none of Snyder's Twisted pretzels are vegan-friendly either, as they all contain dairy. And finally, Snyder's Pretzel Sandwiches are not suitable for vegans. Their Sea Salt Rounds are vegan, however their Butter Rounds are made with modified butter. We're not talking vegan butter, either! So, these would be off limits for vegans. The Parmesan Garlic, Honey Mustard & Onion, Cheddar Cheese, and Buttermilk Ranch Pretzel Pieces are also all prepared with dairy. On the other hand, their Hot Buffalo, Peanut Butter Filled, and Jalapeño Pretzel Pieces are all vegan-friendly. Alternatively, if you aren't sure whether a pretzel is made with butter, margarine, or neither, you can simply request for yours to be made without it.That is a great question; you see; Kirkland doesn’t like to give up the goods on where their products are produced. Sadly, it is expensive to be healthy, and that goes for peanut butter just as much as anything else. Coincidentally these peanut butter have the same nutritional content, look, and taste the same, and are both made from high-quality Valencia peanuts, and no one at Costco denies the similarities.
