We went through every one of Creamy Vanilla Almond Butter by Simple Truth’s 6 ingredients, from DRY ROASTED ALMONDS on down. Nut butters often slip in honey or agave as the sweetener; not here — no HFCS, agave or honey and no purine-rich extract anywhere on the label. The label lists ORGANIC CANE SUGAR as an added sweetener; check the total sugar per serving. A solid everyday pick for gout — 62/100.

What we found on the label
No yeast extract, meat/fish extract, or anchovy — the purine sources that hide in savory packaged foods.
Fiber — 9.4 g per 100 g, which slows sugar absorption.
Protein — 15.6 g per 100 g.
Worth knowing
High total sugar — 18.8 g per 100 g; a heavy sugar load itself adds to uric acid, so keep the portion small.
