I think most people think of "peanut butter" as the sweet stuff with extra oils and sugars (Jif or Skippy or whatever) and "almond butter" tends to be unsweetened with little or no added oils. But strictly speaking, if you get unsweetened, no salt added almond butter vs peanut butter, they are pretty similar. Also peanuts aren't really nuts at all, they are legumes. So if you are following a no-legume diet (like paleo), peanuts are a no-no but almonds are ok.

I prefer almond butter in smoothies, you still get the nutty flavor and the protein but it isn't as over powering.
Other then that, I don't know what all the fuss is about..

Some people prefer almond butter because it's a nut and not a legume.
If you want to try something amazing, give cashew butter a try. Yum.
I found almond butter ok but a bit gritty.

I'm one of the lucky ones who can't eat peanuts almond butter is second best to me!
