Question: is peanut butter unsaturated fat?
Answer: A typical 2-tablespoon serving of peanut butter has 3.3 grams of saturated fat and 12.3 grams of unsaturated fat. That puts it up there with olive oil in terms of the ratio of unsaturated to saturated fat. Dr. Willett notes that saturated fat isn't the deadly toxin it is sometimes made out to be.
