Any peanut lovers out there?

[mrdc]

I'm sitting here eating my mixed nuts and it got me wondering how many of you love peanuts as much as me. I have mixed nuts, cashews only, several types of flavored almonds, pistachios, sunflower seeds and pecans just here at my work desk. At home, I probably have 10+ cans of other types of nuts. I’m glad that none of my kids have peanut allergies!

I also like peanuts,cashews, pecans ETC ETC...I keep a jar of party peanuts at my desk at work, and at home just cause they are a good snack (better than cookies anyway)

Oh, how could I forget peanut butter!! I keep several Sam's Club size cans here at work and at home!!

I just love food.. I enjoy most nuts except those nasty friggin cashews. Boiled peanuts for the win.

My wife generally gets me a 4 lb bag of in-shell peanuts for football season from the Virginia Peanut Company (they are freaking GOOOOOOOOD!!!!!!).
I can't keep cashews in my house, or I would sit and eat them by the pound!
I also love almonds, pecans, and hard whites...dammit...now I have to hit my local peanut shop (they roast their own)!

Peanuts, cashews, pistachios, almonds are my favorites.
The best peanuts I ever had were on a plane flight coming home from Mexico City.
Salty peanuts with lime flavor, incredible!!! Have not been able to find them anywhere.

here's a good question for you peanut-lovers:
how many of you have had BOILED peanuts?

I am a nut for nuts! They are a great snack and good for you too.

dood...they're pretty good. it's definitely a southern thing tho. you take raw peanuts and boil them (in the shell) in salty water, then just peel and eat.

[spanko]

How do you make them? I usually buy them from road-side stands around here... would be awesome to make my own.

 

[mrdc]

I use this recipe...

It was the first one I found on the internet awhile back. Sometimes I add jalapenos to the mix.

Wow.. That looks easy as heck. I'll be trying this tomorrow.
Thanks I'll let you know how they turn out.

Cool ... so I guess you boiled peanut haters also hate refried beans!

 

[spanko]

Not even a comparison. Refried beans are the bomb!!!
