About Ingredients:
Join MIT-trained chemist and science educator George Zaidan as he tries to recreate everyday household products like toothpaste, lipstick, or shaving cream using only natural ingredients… and no recipe! He’ll have to decode long lists of intimidating chemical names, figure out what they all do, try and find natural substitutes, and then cook up the do-it-yourself versions in his chemistry lab (kitchen). While George may or may not succeed, we'll all learn something new and surprising about the products we take for granted every day.

What's in Peanut Butter? | Ingredients With George Zaidan (Episode 7)
• What's in Peanut Butte...

/ natgeo
This episodes are fantastic. The intro is good, the information is good and scientific, and the video has funny parts too. What's not to like about it?!
Daniel J. De Jesús thanks so much!!
George Zaidan I really liked the intro jingle and the Celine song bit too.
maybe i'll get walter white next season
I agree, this segment is highly educational and interesting. Looking forward to seeing more like it.
Because its kinda cringe
Liked the "and that's the way it is" segment! 😀
BTW, I put my peanuts and salt only peanut butter in the fridge, then it's nice and firm, and it doesn't separate.
anita paulsen great call!
Eating peanut butter whilst watching this.
Oh my life can't get any greater
Actually it can if I have a Girlfriend ._. Fml
Louis Cheong well, quit eatin peanut butter and watching this...
Louis Cheong Make it into fudge and it will be even better. I made some today with random stuff and no recipe. I just heated up some sugar and margarine, and honey and a little vanilla meal shake since I had no milk or vanilla extract, and mixed some peanut butter into the heated mixture. Surprisingly, it actually worked, so I'm sure it's really easy following an actual recipe.
A shining example for all of George kind. Masterfully done.
A suggestion for the next time you make peanut butter: to prevent getting your PB all over, invest in a canning funnel to get it ALL in the jar. And another tip, if you like crunchy PB, stir in a generous amount of chopped peanuts; the bonus? The PB doesn't separate as much! Bon Appetit!
Great video! we used to make peanut butter at home with just salted peanuts, it was creamy and delicious and it never separated....cause we ate it too fast =) lol
you are such an adorable dork. this is the best series I've ever found. keep up the incredible work George!
Why thank you!!
Just found this channel and i like it already. On a related note: Awhile back I decided I'd only eat peanut butter which only had one ingredient (peanuts) for whatever reason. I did run into the oily issue.
The first time, I poured out the oil and then couldn't eat the darn thing cos it got too hard. The second time i stirred the oil into the peanut butter proper and then put it into the fridge. After that I never had issues with it again. Wasn't runny or anything....though it did always need jam.
if you rost the peanuts more you'll get a deeper, sweeter flavor. The colour will darken as well.
thomas self good idea!
I buy a peanut butter that only has peanuts in it, stir the oil into the peanut solids and put it in the refrigerator. The oil solidifies when it's cold and doesn't separate. Problem solved and I didn't have to grind peanuts, mix a lot of ingredients, and put it in jars, nor do I consume unwanted quantities of salt.
Russ Johnston
My peanut and coconut butter has 69% roasted peanuts and 28% coconut, with a bit of honey. No palm oil or salt. These are not needed at all. Cheap peanut butter is full of sugar, salt and palm or sunflower oil. This makes it cheap to make. But is way more unhealthy and not recommended as part of a healthy diet.
Do you make it yourself or buy it? (If the latter, what brand? I'd be curious to check it out.)
OH WOW he didn't use bovine secretions! Fantastic! :) Thumbs up!
Great presentation, George - you're a natural in front of the lens!
P. Butter = Peanuts only 👏🏼👌👍🏻🌹😻🐶🐾💖
+George Zaidan I hope there is room on your list for glass cleaner. I've seen recipes for homemade stuff, but most of that stuff involves vinegar. (Blech!)
Jack Linde I'll add it to the list! Thanks!!
This series is simply excellent! Can you please do an episodes on face wash? I have read that some of them contain microbeads (very small plastic particles) that contribute to water pollution - it would be very good to know about natural alternatives to such products.
Hey George, I'm allergic to peanuts, so what is inside of a peanut that causes the allergy, and what goes on inside the human body when the allergen is consumed? Is it the proteins or the makeup of the peanut itself? I have always wondered what causes someone to be allergic to one certain food and what causes another person to not be.
Brilliant! I've made my own peanut butter for years, and just got used to the separation. I'm going to start experimenting using cocoa butter & soy lecithin!
I have a peanut butter, I have a glass, ugh... 😂😂
Haha you liked your own comment
Peanut butter jar?
Mateusz Drzymala please don't
Saw a video on the Nat Geo Snapchat and loved it- it's almost 3am but I can't stop watching these! Keep it up :)
Peanut butter 7 out of 10. The series 10 out of 10. You seriously should give yourself a higher mark for the peanut butter but keep these awesome videos coming. 🥜
0:48 ,my sides have ceased to exist in the material plane.
Seriously man, i freaking love this show.
thanks!!!
...you know, if you hold the pitcher above the jar (which is set on the table) and use the spatula to gently motivate the peanut butter down the spout, you won't get nearly as messy, haha.
you dont have to add anything to peanuts to get peanut oil. after the peanuts are crushed the natural peanut oil floats to the top. if you want smoother p. butter you just mix the natural oil back into it.
Love this episode. All of the ingredients could be found in normal kitchen except soy lecithin. Any idea how could I get soy lecithin from soy beans? Thank you.
It would be quite a challenge to isolate pure soy lecithin from soy beans in your kitchen. You can buy food grade soy lecithin online though!
Watch out! There's a big lizard on the wall behind you, dude. :D
I'm so silly. I thought peanut butter was just peanuts. *singing* It's the stuff inside your stuff inside your stuff ingredients!
I really enjoyed this!
This reminds me of good eats. Oh yes, I DID just compare you to Alton brown
thisislaney hahaha hi Marion. I take it as a compliment :)
I'm sorry, but I can't take this episode seriously and cannot give this episode a like. Here's my reasoning.
Most of the peanut butters I buy have no sugar and no added fat. In fact, the ingredients are only peanuts. Some of the brands I buy have salt, some do not and are pure peanuts. Yet none of these jars of peanut butter ever separate or go runny. You did not explain that in this video, and I believe using an outlier ingredient that is not in many brands of peanut butter is a cop out to avoid answering the harder question of why it doesn't separate when it's just peanuts. So no, there is not "a lot more to peanut butter than just peanuts and salt".
If it has anything other than peanuts and salt, it ain't peanut butter, it's peanut spread and it's 100% junk food. Seriously. Don't give that crap to anyone you love, including yourself.
maybe if you liquidify just the peanuts...let them separate into peanut oil and peanut butter, remove the peanut oil to other container (to use just seasoning food)...and liquidify the peanut butter again, this time with the other ingredients to make peanut butter firmer ... or maybe using some pectin to make the mix firmer ?
Some store bought peanut butters separate a bit as well, and is semi runny like the peanut butter made here, so if the taste is good, you could easily give yourself an 8 or a 9
This is pretty much why I gave up on making my own peanut butter. I don’t like it runny. I could never make peanut butter that stayed put when I spread it on things. I’ve just stuck with Jif for years now.
Can I separate store bought peanut butter from the hydrogenated oils?
IM SOBBING WHEN HE DANCED ✨
How to solve peanut butter oil separation problem ?
What is the soy lecithin used for and where can I get it?
I think I got it on Amazon
I have been making my own peanut butter for 30 years and I only use plain peanuts. If you refrigerate it then it won't separate.
home made philippine peanut butter is the tastiest/best.
I will stick with my "runny" peanut butter(couple of stirs and it's ready.) You can have your concoctions.
george.. you didnt settle. the debate with this episode (which is great of course)... chunky or smooth? (what! too soon?)
Can you please explain in future videos how you choose the amounts of ingredients not commonly used in household? (e.g. soy lecithin, etc) Wouls greatly appreciate it 😆
Basically I just eyeball it :) Usually you don't need a lot of an emulsifier for it to do its job so I shoot for about 1-5% by weight.
Whats in peanut butter? Peanuts ez
then how come i see peanut butter in the stores that says 100% peanuts? i bought some and it didn't separate or run.
What brand? I'd be curious to check it out. (My guess is maybe they use a strain of peanut that has a much lower oil content?)
um it's pic's peanut butter
I want the subtitle for this video
What should I do ?
in other words, I'm gonna make peanut butter with non gmo ingredients
When I add natural raw honey to my peanut butter I take care of all those problems.
What can I use Instead of soy lecithin, I've seen that is bad for your body.
did i read it right? 5 MONTHS LATER??? lol..
you are very smart
just get peanut butter w/ salt. Stir it up and keep in the fridge. Wont ever get runny again...
How it made!! that what I want to know.
Someone likes guild wars 2 sound effects.
We love u
i can't take my eyes off the lizard in the bg... i believe its move..
What's in a foundation ? I love watching these and I'm 15. lol
thanks! foundation is on the list :)
The peanut butter I buy has ONLY PEANUTS in it!!!!!
I cant handle that concrete mix yall call peanut butter, peanuts and salt for life. Its not as soupy when its crunchy though
I'm allergic to peanuts
So what ever makes it no separate as much add more of that and maybe it won't separate
How about what's in lotion?
what about mom-Di-glycerides?
i give it a HARD 7...
Peanuts are good for you till transformed and given extra ingredients.
Wine.. What's in my wine? What are sulfates? Why are they in wine and why are there some specialized wines that claim not to have sulfates?
Great idea! I'll add this to the list
arganda gardangale var.Digkatli ol birhader
This is reminding me of blues clues.
More soy lecithin?
Hi George, entertaining piece. But I was frankly a little disappointed. First, the portrayal of "natural" peanut butter (that is, peanut butter without any added hydrogenated oils and other garbage), as somehow not feasible for use -- when actually there are plenty of these natural butters on the market (not just peanut, but almond, cashew and many other nut butters too), which people are increasingly buying, as the public has become aware of the potential dangers of excessive saturated fat and especially trans fat (which hydrogenated oils generally contain).
Natural nut butters, as you show, will have natural separation when you buy them. However, I have to personally disagree (as I think will anyone who has ever used natural peanut butter/nut butter) with your assertion that, "no matter how long you blend this, it *Will* separate again," seeming to suggest that it is not something reasonable for use.
I think that anyone who has bought and used these nut butters, will understand that, after opening the first time and STIRRING vigorously for several minutes, that it can be made into something of a homogenous mixture. And, at least in my experience, it generally stayed that way for the next few weeks or even months. Some oil did again slowly move to the top, but not NEARLY to the extent shown in your example of the original heterogeneous separation, and I tended to find that through a few seconds of stirring again, that it could then be mixed again quite easily.
I just find it a little surprising that in an episode all about the consistency of mass-produced peanut butter, that you did not find it relevant to draw attention to the negative health effects of consuming excessive hydrogenated oils, particularly "'partially hydrogenated vegetable oil" , which if they are still including that in peanut butter, is frankly like dumping disgusting sludge into your arteries, just because we are too lazy to give our peanut butter a vigorous stir the first time we open it, and get the heebie-jeebies when something is "runny."
Thanks for the thoughtful post Max, and while I agree with a lot of the info in your notes, I want to also note that for a mainstream channel, I was impressed to see the information in this video presented in such a neutral manner. That is, Mr. Zadian didn't go into great detail on the health concerns with hydrogenated oils, and really, on peanuts themselves which many people now consider harmful to the human gut, while on the other hand he also didn't just assume that people only buy Jif 'peanut butter' and only show (like I expected beforehand frankly) a 1/2 cup of hydrogenated oil getting dumped into the blender. The writer(s) even took the time to develop a very interesting alternative with the cocoa butter. I thought that was really cool!
By the way, personally, I buy raw almond butter and stir it, and I agree, it's no big deal to stir. But I wanted to give kudos to the National Geographic folks for pushing further than a simpleton's mass market peanut butter ingredients list as they could have done.
Best Wishes Max, and thanks National Geographic for making and posting this on youtube,
Brice
Hey guys! Thanks so much for the thoughtful comments and discussion. I really appreciate reading people's reactions!
I'm going to do one (or maybe even more) episodes on health effects of various stuff in our food at some point as part of Ingredients. It's a topic that cuts across lots of different products and there's a lot of accurate and inaccurate information out there, so I'm going to try kill many (proverbial) birds with one stone and do one or two videos that cover it all.
And as an aside, the FDA banned partially hydrogenated oils in (almost all) foods a couple years ago: www.fda.gov/ForConsumers/ConsumerUpdates/ucm372915.htm
But interestingly, if you eat meat/dairy, you're getting trans fats in your diet anyway (but very very small amounts!). Here's one source of many: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2596737/
[Also note that the 2nd article came out before the FDA's ban of partially hydrogenated oils.]
Thanks again for watching, and please keep the thoughtful notes coming!
George Zaidan thanks for those links! I didn't know about the ban, and will read those articles. Cheers.
Hi all,
Thanks for the perceptive comments Brice, and George for following up. Interesting that some of the most civil points I've seen made in RUclips comments come in a video about peanut butter. Thanks for sharing the info that partially hydrogenated oils have been banned George. I will be interested in seeing your future videos on similar topics. Cheers all.
Butter for squirrels
mono-dyglycerides?
If it is so. Why do you have cooks on youtube shovin how peanut butter is made??
I Can't WAIT FOR RETIREMENT! I'll look 10 times the hobo Letterman is! Fuck
Nigga this sound like a Good Eats episode. Alton Brown head ass
Um, but theres a machine that makes peanut butter out of just peanuts in HEB and it does not come out runny at all, in fact it is quiet dry, therefore this video is a LIE.
All you need is crushed up peanuts thats all
please make dry shampoo!
ooh i've never seen that -- will look into it
Uploaded 2 minutes ago! :O
ooh I think he's of lebanese ancestry
It's the arms, isn't it.
George Zaidan nuh uh, the family name! (but you pointed out another indicator)
Marie-Lynn Issa whatever his ancestry is, he's gorgeous!!!

5 months of making
Pee nut butter
I went pee and i ate a nut then butter
Saturated fats aren't the best choice for your health..
or u dont fuking buy that kraft garbage and buy nature peanut butter that dosnt have anything else but peanut,and its not runny when u mix it up
Is PB unhealthy?
maya are you trying to lose Some weight?
+GAMES PLANET aha no
There's plenty of debate about that. I think peanut butter is great in moderation. The plain kind is a little more healthy than the non-runny kind because of the saturated fats they add to it. I think most can agree on that.
Like many I imagine, i grew up on Jiff. Still love it to this day, but i've cut back on it and gone with food coop natural p'butter (aka ground peanuts) as much as possible to avoid the extra fats and sugars.
Why not just make regular peanut butter? Why did you have to "respect" vegans and such, by not using canola oil?
Peanut allergies are super common, yet you still made peanut butter. I just found that weird. :/
killercaos123 he might be vegan?
killercaos123 hey good point. I was also a bit worried that butter might give the PB a weird taste
killercaos123 do you hate vegans?
killercaos123 also people with peanut allergies wouldn't be watching this, genius.
Ann Mous are you a vegan by any chance?
And to answer ur question, no I do not hate vegetarians and vegans alone, it's just the people who claim to be one. Many of them are contrarians who set themselves apart and act superior to everyone else and are smug about.
Totally different.
Go Vegan!
