The fatty acid-esterified propoxylated glycerin composition have a Iodine Value of less than or equal to about 10 and an average number of fatty acid acyl group carbons per propoxylation number of about 7 to about 15. The nut butter compositions do not exhibit the undesirable side effects of gastrointestinal intolerance or anal leakage and do not require stabilizes. |
