I know there was some sort of peanut problem a few years ago. Just can't
remember what. Puny peanuts? Drought? Something that. Now I am having trouble finding plain peanuts. I can find the Cocktail ones but Redskin or unsalted Dry roasted are hard to find. Can't even find online unless I pay a really high price. Seems the flavored nuts are far more common. Also seems like much less shelf space devoted to nuts in the stores. Anyone else having this problem? |

What do you mean by "redskin" peanuts? Do you mean raw (aka "Spanish") peanuts that you have to roast? That's the kind I buy when I make peanut brittle. Like this: https://nuts.com/nuts/peanuts/redskin.html I can easily find jars of unsalted (and lightly salted) dry roasted peanuts. I buy them frequently to eat as a snack. Yum! Jill |

Yeah, there was a peanut blight that only affected unsalted peanuts, so they only grown the salted ones since then. Oh, and Beer Nuts(tm). Whatever is affecting your mind has obviously spread to your eyes, too. I can even get plain dry-roasted peanuts at Walmart, which is the last place you look for anything (besides Target, they have even less for twice the price). Leeme guess, you don't shop at Walmart any more (as of ... yesterday)? Because they're in stock at your nearest stores. But wait, don't start making any excuses just yet! Because they're also available, wait for it..... on-line, too. Leaving you with only one logical and sensible excuse, which is "They don't ship to my planet!" https://www.walmart.com/ip/Great-Val...16-Oz/10448400 |

Julie, when I needed unsalted nuts for candy making, and couldn't find them in my supermarket, I bought
supplies from a locally-owned candy shop. It might be worth a try, if you have such shops in your area. N. |

Sure deshelling peanuts can be a pain but it gives me something to do when I am bored... Here's the recipe Buy a few pounds of raw peanuts, not green, not already roasted, just plain raw peanuts shell your nuts until you have about 2 cups... put them in your air fryer for about 5 minutes at 400 degrees (time may be a bit different on different machines and time will decrease with less nuts or increase with more nuts... when the timer goes off DO TOUCH them for about 10 minutes because they will be flaming hot and they are still cooking... When they are cool enough to touch then go ahead and salt them to taste... Now these peanuts go so well with the caramel recipe I posted before, they also go spectacular with ice cream or even better with ice cream and caramel and some of the crushed nuts to make a caramel sundae with nuts. or with bananas or with almost anything there is to eat... It is always better with nuts... Now quit playing with nuts and put them in your mouth already. -- ____/~~~sine qua non~~~\____ |

They are the only brand around here that are always good... sold at most markets here... and the larger the bag the lower the cost. Probably good because they sell fast so are always fresh. Gin mills here put them out in big buckets, eat all you want... natcherly they put out the salty ones, peeps drink more. I buy unsalted, still has no effect on my case a month Crystal Palace bill. I really don't buy many, only a small bag now and then, still I don't throw the shells on the floor. I don't like peanuts all that much, I much prefer pistachios. I prefer the pistachios from California, those from Turkey can't compete. |

I bought about 3-4 lbs every couple of weeks for months of raw peanuts took them home and air fried/roasted them but then I stopped because peanuts have shit loads of calories... -- ____/~~~sine qua non~~~\____ |

Why do you sometimes say you never drink alcohol and other times you tell us about your cases of vodka? Just curious. >I really don't buy >many, only a small bag now and then, still I don't throw the shells on >the floor. I don't like peanuts all that much, I much prefer >pistachios.

That might sound like a vegetarian nightmare, but they can be quite good. |

I'm so confused now. What I meant was... You have to place a minimum order for free shipping. I don't need anything else now so won't order. And... The price for those are cheaper at other stores. |
