Doubt connection: In a world full of dangerous and crazy things, be thankful that your favorite is peanut butter. I doubt it's causing your acne; the links with diet are soft, with dairy being more strongly implicated than anything else. Use 5% topical benzoyl peroxide 2x/day for acne; if you're not clear in two weeks, your physician's prescription rx can and will clear you to enjoy peanut butter as always.
