Mayver's Dark Roasted Peanut Butter

I bought this product a Woolworths yesterday, was very disappointed to see tat despite being labelled ad Australian made by Australian family company it is made with less than 10% Australian ingredients, although this is shown on the label it is in such tiny writing that I and others I asked were not able to read it in the supermarket, and it was… Read more
only on returning home with the aid of magnifying glass that it was legible. As this information was printed in the smallest font on the label I believe it is clearly an attempt to hide foreign origin of ingredients while promoting it as Australian made, I cannot comment on taste of the product as it has already been binned, I prefer not to eat food products from unknown countries of origin without knowing the health implications of their agricultural and food handling practices and I especially do not like being duped into buying a product believing it to be Australian, I will never purchase any product from this company again.
De we eat it or drink it? – I purchased this smooth peanut butter from Coles rather than my usual brand. My question is this. Does the manufacturer expect you to eat it or drink it? So oily and semi liquid even when stirred in the jar. Slathered on a slice of fresh bead or toast it runs out and drops everywhere leaving oily stains on clothes and table cloth. Show details
Rubbish..! – It claims on the label "BEST TASTING PEANUT BUTTER IN THE WORLD". What utter rubbish. I bought this stuff because the label states Australian made and owned, yeah right! I couldn't read the small print under the Aussie map ya need a magnifying glass to read it 10% Australian yeah the jar might be made here. I have read many 1 star reviews and I… Read more
agree with them all. One reviewer said DANGEROUS, absolutely! Another, it's like eating CLAY, absolutely! It takes 10 minutes to get mix the oil. Give it a shake, the stuff drips from the lid. First and last time I'll purchase this stuff..
Mayers Dark Roasted Crunchy Peanut Butter is silky and crunchy at the same time – I love the Mayers Dark Roasted Crunchy Peanut Butter. Once you stir in the oil, it's a silky-crunchy dark roasted peanut butter with a lot of flavour. Careful, it's addictive with honey on brown rice crackers.
Very disappointing – This stuff is totally tasteless, even my "eat anything dog" turned her nose up at it. It would is perfectly suitable for vegans due to it's total lack of flavor. Show details
Taste is OK but texture is dangerous – I bought the Smooth version of this peanut butter. It is very finely ground with masses of oil that is really difficult to stir together. Eating it is a bit like trying to eat clay. It sticks in the throat and is difficult to swallow. Wouldn't risk feeding it to a toddler for fear of choking. Show details
This is a great disappointment – As the label states "Australian made" which leads the buyer to assume it is an Australia product, I was very disappointed to read in very, very small print under the kangaroo label, "Made in Australia from less than 10% Australian ingredients". It also declares, "We use a special variety of peanuts from Argentina that are only grown in a few places around the world." Show details
Love it! – I bought this for the first time and love its taste and how crunchy it is. I also like, that it's Australian made.
Does it get better than this? – I was scared buying healthy pb because often people forget that good health still needs good taste. So when I brought this and first tried it it was such a relief! The consistency for peanut butter too is pretty good, you can’t really expect better - it’s peanut butter, pb is thick. Also I got the “smunchy” dark roast Show details
The best peanut butter on the market – Tried different brands of pb but this one is top class and i finish the jar in a week or less whereas other ones i throw half finished due poor flavour. Show details
Clearly claims it's Australian made But 100% imported peanuts – Clearly claims Australian made and I believed from Australian peanuts. 100% imported peanuts from an unknown o.s. source, unknown chemical products used. Never buy this again. Far too oily, fail to believe 99.3% peanuts. Yes I stirred it. In my day it was called 'Peanut Paste'. Show details
Spent 41 years in USA...but found the best Peanut Butter right here in Sydney – I love peanut butter and tried a few of them since I came home to Australia. I tried Coles brand which was ok but also several others. I bought a jar of "Purely Nutz", which turned out to be so disgusting that after two spoonfuls, I threw it out. I had been a little spoiled by living in the peanut belt of America, I guess. So when I saw your… Read more
commercial on TV several times, I bought a jar of Dark Roasted. I must tel you that I finally found a PB I could live with. It had the right taste enhanced by the salt, that had me eating from a spoon or crackers, until none was left, in less than a week! I would not want you to buy Aussie peanuts if they are second rate or too expensive. To put out a quality product, one needs to search everywhere for the right ingredients, and you have DONE IT! I now see so many other products you have that I must tr out too. The USA could be a great jump into the market for global approval....you have what it takes, right from your own product line. Thank you.
False Labelling – Do not buy this product. It is made from South American peanuts for crying out loud! We discovered this after purchase. Taking it back to Coles for refund. We have plenty of good Aussie peanuts. Show details

Not Australian peanuts! – Company portrays itself as Australian and healthy but the only Australian component in this product is “Aussie sea salt“. There is no guarantee on quality and safety of peanuts themselves. Peanuts generally are heavily sprayed with chemicals including glyphosate and their foreign origin makes their safety questionable. Show details
I include this as my daily source of healthy fat! – I have tried all Mayver's nut butter and this is one of the best. I also use their smooth peanut butter on my healthy Tiktok 5-ingredient peanut butter cookies. They turned out super delicious and compare to other peanut butter, they only include 2 ingredients with no added sugar. Here are my peanut butter recipe using this nut butter if you want to try!: https://theyouprojects.com/healthy-tiktok-5-ingredient-peanut-butter-cookie/ Show details
No Australian content – No Australian nuts. Buy another brand that uses Australian nuts Show details
Superb Peanut Butter – This peanut butter is just perfect ..... the roast is intense and rich and the texture is as good as you can get without hardening the oils at all. The oil mixes in easily and stays mixed in for as long as the jar is in use which is admittedly not very long! Show details
Brings back the memories – I love Mayvers peanut butter, the dark roasted crunchy is my favorite ! Real peanut butter with real taste In a glass jar, slightly oily, just like peanut butter was when I was a kid. Just for good measure made right here in Australia. Well done, It's got my vote. Show details
Deception – Obviously not "99.3% peanuts" as it is literally like an oily sauce. Such misleading ingredients listing like this should be highly illegal. I would also be interested to see the 'quality' of the imported ingredients... I see it on sale at 1/2 price all the time, and I now realize that is just a psychological trick (along with their fancy 'health food' presentation) and they know it is barely worth what they charge @ 1/2 price anyway...
No Wonder its Half Price So Often – A lot of their peanut butters contain only 10 % Australian product hope you all like those toxic gassed peanuts from,, you guessed it.. wonder where the rest is shipped from, time to be honest as to where your stuff really comes from
Mayver's Crunchy Peanut Butter – I love Mayver's Crunchy Peanut Butter. It tastes great, but I am wondering why it is so oily. The website claims NO added oils and Aussie peanuts. Hopefully this is all true because it tastes great
Best product and price – Tried them all and this is the best. Why people continue to by crap like Kraft is beyond me. I do prefer when they use local peanuts and would pay a premium if this was guaranteed.

It’s ok but not great – First of all it has bits inside. If I wanted a crunchy I would buy crunchy, but these bits are not nice . Next it’s not dark roasted, it burnt. Adding to the insult their normal roast option tastes like not roasted at all!
Tastes burned – Got it half price and as soon as I tasted it I knew why it was discounted. It's very bitter and extremely liquid. I can taste burned peanuts not dark roast. I will struggle to finish this jar.
Heaven in a jar – Completely addicted. Love the dark roasted flavour, it's so rich. Can't eat Pics anymore after eating this. Can be runnier than mainstream PB but that's because it's natural with no bad hard fats and stabilisers added. I eat it direct from the jar.
Much better than Kraft! – The whole Mayver's peanut butter range is a massive step up from the artificial peanut spreads. Nothing but peanuts. Although it may not be as good as a homemade peanut butter from a healthfood shop, it is an amazing addition to the shelves of major super markets. Would recommend to anyone looking to an accessable, healty peanut butter.
No longer using 100% Australian Nuts – Mayvers have traded on the fact they used only Australian peanuts but they have sneekily introduced a blend of peanuts from Argentina and despite no obvious change in flavour I for one will be seeking an alternative product which is ALL AUSSIE as I know my local health food shop makes it for $8 a kilo
Too Runny – If i had wanted Peanut Sauce, I would have bought a bottle labeled as sauce, but I bought Mayvers Dark Roasted because I wanted spread for bread. once i stirred the oil in, I could, literally pour it onto my crackers, and it could, conversely, drip off when I was eating it. Quite disappointing. I was not that excited about the flavour, but I… Read more
did, mistakenly buy smooth instead of crunchy. Could they not have the word SMOOTH in larger letters so that dummies like me could see it?
Soooo damn good! – Ridiculously delicious and naturally so. The lack of additional sweeteners or other additives was what attracted me to this (ingredients: 99.7% peanuts, 0.3% salt) and the flavor is amazing. Simply peanuty goodness and the dark roasted aspect is excellent; the regular roasted version is nice, but this one is on another level. Australian made with… Read more
all Australian ingredients is a huge plus. The only problem? I've eaten three jars in as many weeks... : )
Best peanut butter – I am addicted. Just peanuts, no stabilisers and other stuff to ruin it. Good stuff. Yes I ate straight from the jar. Try the coconut spread too. Thank you mayvers.
The Best! – I tried the Mayvers peanut butter & it beats all the others on the market in taste & after taste! Healthy to boot with none of the crap, all Australian ingredients & owned. These guys have no competition. Well done!
Yummiest peanut butter in the world! – This dark roasted peanut butter is so, so good. Bonus- no added oil or sugar, made in Australia from the purest ingredients namely Australian peanuts & sea salt. Family owned.
