Margaret Holmes Green Cajun Boiled Peanuts - 6lb

Excellent

great

Let me start by saying I'm allergic to nuts, and the sound of *boiled peanuts* just sounds.... gross. So why do I buy them over & over? My husband can't get enough! He loves them. He says they are best warmed up, and that they have a wonderful salty flavor, though they can be a little slimy from thier juice. Personally, I wouldn't know... i havent tasted his nuts as i fear that could end horribly, but this is a man that doesn't typically blather on about his nuts so I'm going to assume it's manna-ish by his standards. If you enjoy nuts, are a regular consumer, and want a new nut experience in your mouth (hopefully you don't have my aversion!)... go ahead, shove them in, roll em around & swallow. Hopefully you will have a smile too, like my husband after hes swallowed these tasty nuts. 😃 Personally, he can keep his nuts to himself, I have no intention of putting even one anywhere near my mouth.

Buy the Cajun kind! Better.

Southern states have this item in abundance, not so easy to find up north

These have to be the worst peanuts of ANY type I have ever tried to eat. Even worse than the stale, rotten or rancid peanut you occasionally find in a can of roasted/salted peanuts. I ate maybe half a dozen and then had to throw out the remaining 6 lbs of peanuts. I just threw them outside on the ground for the critters/wildlife, but upon thinking I probably should not have done that. If anything, especially a small critter, does try to eat them they will probably die of salt poisoning. These were supposed to be the Cajun flavor/variety, but the salt was so overwhelming that was all you could taste. You might as well open a can or cannister of salt and eat it with a spoon for the same taste and sensation. I don't see how 'Margaret Holmes' or whoever actually owns the company can manufacture and sell CRAP like this! Needless to say my RECOMMENDATION is do NOT waste your money and buy these (pea)salt-nuts unless you actually like eating straight salt by the spoonful. If you do - then these are the (pea)salt-nuts for you.

I used this for a southern recipe that also called for green peanut oil. It turned out well.
