Quite tasty, as I recall, > but not tasty enough to do twice. > I made them myself once when I lived in Memphis... not sure why. I didn't use a slow cooker, just heavily salted water and slow simmered on the stove top. They were tasty but the peanuts weren't the same as what I find in SC. > Maybe, if I could buy them on the side of the road. ;) > > nb --nor plagued by peanuts > > I don't know what you mean by "plagued". I'm about to heat them up and have some as a snack. I'm looking forward to the taste after many years. :) Jill |

From my point of view, "plagued"=allergy. I'v been eating them since I was a wee tyke, like when my grandparents put out a bowl of 'em whenever my father went over to visit, to keep me and my brother from wanting candy. I LOVE peanuts! ;) nb |

Nuts tend to bother me. I think it is more of a digestive issue and possible diverticulitis than an allergy. I can eat a couple peanuts or peanut butter cookies. I can get away with eating a few cashews of some slivered almonds. Walnuts and pecans cause more problems for me than they are worth. >> >> What ****es me off is making areas "peanut free", as in airplanes, >> etc.Â* Since those affected are in the vast minority, I think they >> should wear a mask or be segegated in another area.Â* Why punish >> everyone? I might suggest that it is one of those things that people are more likely to support of it is their kid who has the nasty reaction. When we were kids some of us just didn't make it. I am not going to call anyone a liar, but I just don't understand how just being in a room where someone else is eating peanuts could lead to a serious and possible fatal reaction. OTOH, I have been stung by hornets and wasps dozens of times. It has happened at least once a year for as long as I can remember. Last fall I had a bad reaction to a hornet and now have to carry an epipen. I don't know if it was a sudden change in the way I react to them or the location. I often get stung on the neck when out on the motorcycle, so perhaps there was an accumulative effect?? I don't know. What puzzles me is the way the medical authorities keep changing their advice about feeding babies allergens. |

I don't know. > Yes, it's just that. It's the same with bee keepers. Allergic reaction builds up over time so that eventually, they have to give up the occupation. Their families can also go the same way from the venom on the keeper's protective clothing getting into the atmosphere in the house. |

The words 'girls' and 'boys' will soon be banned in schools, because they're too confrontational for transsexuals. A Dutch theme park recently got into trouble for throwing their yearly Cowboys and Indians Party for children. Snowflakes will rule the world! |

The internal swelling blocked his main artery. |

I believe there was recently a protest about the word cowboy too since ""It’s very 1950s to think that ‘boy’ somehow includes ‘girl.'" Neverending BS these days. Cheri |

Political Correctness has gone overboard. There is no constitutional right to be offended, and the PC ninnies who whine about bullies have gathered for their group bullying and thought policing. |

They automatically assumed she knew how to ride a horse. She said she'd never been on a horse in her life. |
