The only ingredients you need are peanuts and possibly salt. The rest
is gunk.
 
All non-organic peanut butters at Walmart contain added sugar and
gunk. The only way to avoid the crap is to buy organic, but that's
more expensive. RFK to the rescue!
 

Years ago, there was a little shop near us which sold freshly-ground
peanut butter. You'd select your peanuts, have them weighed up, and
they'd be ground right in front of you.

I think that's all you need. I buy peanut butter from ALDI.
Ingredients: roasted peanuts and salt. Not organic, not expensive,
from humble ALDI. Why is it so much harder for Americans to get
something decent?

It's not difficult.  There are numerous brands of natural peanut
butter.

Fun fact:  natural peanut butter doesn't meet the specifications
set out by the USDA for peanut butter.  It has too much fat.  They
have to call it "peanut butter spread" or at least not use the
term "peanut butter".
