De Pindakaaswinkel Leiden
Sample all the flavours of peanut butter in Leiden. A super healthy snack that, if you buy from De Pindakaaswinkel, is also nature-friendly. Read on to find out why, you'll automatically get an appetite.
The mission of The Peanut Butter Shop is to make the tastiest and most sustainable peanut butter. The peanut plant contributes to this by giving nutrition back to the soil, rather than absorbing it. Peanuts are legumes that fix nitrogen in the soil, making them one of the most sustainable crops. As a result, they improve soil quality and reduce the need for fertiliser. In addition, peanuts are nature's zero-waste plants. Everything from the roots to the husks are utilised. They also use as many organic ingredients as possible at the Peanut Butter Shop and avoid plastic wherever possible by packing the products in glass jars with metal lids. You can have these jars refilled at the shop.

The peanut butter is palm oil-free, with as little salt as possible and, in seven flavours, no added sugars. This makes it a super healthy snack, also because of its high content of proteins, unsaturated fats and vitamins B and E.
The working conditions and income of peanut farmers are of a high standard. Moreover, most farmers use a no-tillage system, which improves soil condition and reduces erosion of valuable nutrients.
