Boiled Peanuts...what a WONDERFUL dish!

You can't go wrong with a good snack of boiled peanuts. I'm more of a salted peanuts guy. However, sometimes I just get that craving for a bag of boiled peanuts. Either way, peanuts are truly addicting. There is nothing better than a good baseball game, peanuts, and some sunflower seeds.

Oh my, I think that you have hit on something that is better than donuts by far. I really like the cajun ones that they are selling at the convenience stores now.

Must be a "southerner" thing! LOL I'm not a big fan of them to be honest. I tried them one time when visiting my gram in Alabama. I thought they were kinda gross to be honest!

yes boiled peanuts is yummy! you can also roast it in some oil and garlic.

I love the summer when all the peanut stands are open on the side of the road! Our son is highly allergic to peanuts so we don't bring them in the house but if he isnt with us we stop and get some every once in a while. They are indeed the best snack going!

Oh my dear, yes I do love boiled peanuts, very much and in fact this is one snack favorite of mine. It's rich in protein and in fact here in the Philippines, students are encouraged to eat peanuts because they say it is the food of the brain. It's so funny to heart stories of people eating boiled peanuts without removing from the shell! That really made me laugh out loud! Ha! Ha! Ha! But you know, I feel quite sad whenever the topic of peanuts is being brought out coz you know my doctor told me to put off eating peanuts for the time being because I'm starting to feel arthritis on my fingers. So sad because that would mean saying goodbye to boiled peanuts which I so love to eat during snack time!

Well, I quite like boiled peanuts myself too. But peanuts are high in protein. Hmm... so, unless you are exercising a lot, take care not to overeat. Proteins can make you fat and gain weight when you have too much of it.

Wow, that sure is new to me, I didn't even know there was such a thing. The way everyone is talking about the boiled peanuts makes me want to try them. Thanks for the new idea.

I also love eating boiled peanuts. In fact it's a very common street snacks here. I like my mom to cook it for us. It's a healthy snack in my opinion. At least it's better than potato chips etc. I love China

Now i have not had boiled peanuts before but i have had roasted peanuts and they are great. I'm not sure about the boiling of peanuts. It might taste good but i have not tried it yet.

I also love the taste of boiled peanuts.It comes here in the rainy season.I have it that time.

I would love to try that, because I love peanuts. Wow! That is something new to me.I will buy some the next time I go shopping it will be on my list. Thank you for sharing.

Boiled peanuts? Sounds nasty!!! I like baked peanuts(salted or not) or Honey roasted peanuts...mmmmmmmhhhhh....delicious!

this is surprising, it is very common here in the philippines, its kinda funny to hear that people there dont even know theyre not supposed to eat the shell, wow, it is a very common food here, it is being sold in sidewalks, there are also fried nuts with garlics, without the shell ofcourse, ready to eat, those are my favorites, especialy the chili ones, some are chili some are not

i had once boiled peanuts. i think that they are just amazing. i have not had that after taht instance. its also healthy.

Hi I will take your word for it as the one time i ate them I really disliked the taste. I like them' just out of the shell nothing else done to them. but each to his own of course.i think maybe this 'is an aquired taste and i havent acquired it yet.lol
