I recently read in Prevention Magazine that the amount of hydrogenated oil in national brands of peanut butter (like Skippy) were so low as to be negligable. The article said that you'd have to eat somewhere around 40 tablespoons of peanut butter a day to be affected by the trans-fat.

I don't know if Prevention Magazine is 100% accurate and reliable, but I'm just passing on what I read....
