I found this at a grocery store in town! I couldn't believe that they carry it because I've never seen it before - saw it at WF in Toronto, but not where I live.

Love peanut butter. Must buy some.

But... there were two varieties that they had - Cinnamon Raisin Swirl and White Chocolate Wonderful. I just couldn't decide. So I'm counting on you, vegweb friends, to help me choose. I could buy them both... but I want some advice anyways. Who's tried these before? Cinnamon Raisin or White Chocolate? Eenie, meenie, miney, mo...

I have had other people try my wide array of PB from PB&Co and I wanted to report on their preferences.

Dark Chocolate is nice but can get too sweet on a sandwich.
White chocolate is bland but can stand up to being eaten on a sandwich or two back to back.
Cin Raisin is awesome on toast but scares unadventurous eaters away.
No one wants to try my Mighty Maple.

Silly people.

Thanks for the recommendations, Ponycakes and aziz_esroh.

That mention of apples reminded me of the Apple-Peanut Butter-Caramel Bars recipe in Veganomicon so I went ahead and made those using Dark Chocolate Dreams. It's a pretty decadent dessert that I reviewed on the Veganomicon recipe review section on this site.
