those shits are terrible for you with all the salt and everything. I think i ate 3 bags over the weekend plus i brought back 18lbs of raw green ones back with me. When i was growing up my grandmother use to make them and she would make me take a nap and tell me they would be done when i woke up.

I will eat boiled peanuts all day but they can keep that liver pudding shit

Boiled Peanuts Pack Big Antioxidant Punch
Boiled peanuts, a regional treat from the southern United States, may be as healthy as they are delicious. Alabama scientists report that boiling these legumes imbues them with more antioxidants than roasted peanuts or peanut butter.

I love them joints! I grew in South Carolina and they on every other corner down there... Now that I'm in Atlanta its hard to come by boiled peanuts for real (if ever)... The best is spicy!
