PB&CO for the flavored ones (Dark Chocolate Dreams, and White Chocolate Wonderful mostly), and Jiff Natural or Great Value Natural for regular, both of those do not need stirring.

I eat Teddie's chunky unsalted, it's pretty delicious and has precisely one ingredient, peanuts.
And just to respond to the "oil at the top" grosses me out thing, I'm going to lay a bit of science on you. The unsaturated fats that are so prevalent in nut butters are naturally oily, where chemically saturated fats are more likely to be a solid (think of the difference between how liquidy olive oil is vs coconut oil which contains a high percent of saturated fat). This is due to the presence of hydrogen atoms bound to the fat molecules (polyunsaturated means there are no hydrogens bound to the fats whereas monounsaturated has one hydrogen molecule). Saturated fats are completely saturated with hydrogen. The presence of these hydrogen molecules not only affect the natural state of the fats, but also affects how our bodies break them down and the fat's smoking points (how hot you can get them before they burn).
Trans fat is poly and monounsaturated fat that has been hydrogenized, which means through processing hydrogen molecules have been bound to these fats. This changes their molecular structures, causing these fats to become more solid and increases the oil's smoking points. Trans fat is not natural and is therefore difficult for our bodies to utilize and are obviously evil and need to be destroyed. Trans fat is useful for the food industry, however, as oils with trans fats can be used for frying foods (these oils generally taste better than those oils that have smoking points that are naturally high enough to be able to be used for the frying process) and these fats get rid of that "gross oil" that rises to the top of natural peanut butter.
So the next time you see that oil, know that it's simply a sign that you aren't intaking unnatural hydrogen atoms attached to the poly and monounsaturated fats found in peanuts. Also, you may say that there is no trans fat on regular peanut butter's nutrition facts. In reality the food industry is allowed to round down the grams of trans fat per serving as long as it is below .5g (I believe that is the right number). So if you eat 4 tbsp of peanut butter, you are actually getting about a gram of trans fat.
Just figured I'd provide the knowledge, although I don't think one gram of trans fat a day will kill you if you really can't stand the oil.

Kirkland brand natural peanut butter, ingredients: peanuts,salt. You have to stir though, but if you stir it once the first time and then keep it in the fridge, you're all good

I grew up on Skippy and I stand by it. Yes, I know it has additives. But I also only eat 9-16g at a time.
Now, when it comes to OTHER nut butters I grind my own! Make my own roasted almond butter, make my own hazelnut butter (which I may then mix with dark chocolate for an, imho, better version of nutella).
And yet my palate is so unsophisticated about peanut butter.

Crazy Richards I'd say is my favorite and by far one of the healthiest. The oil means you're eating something that's bad for you and fatty!
And FYI Smuckers and JIFF "All Natural" are not anything natural they are fatty!Mind Over Matter
