Default Peanuts

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?

IIRC the peanut harvest in the US (Carolinas) was adversely affected by
Hurricane Matthew. 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!

Spanish but not roasted. I did find lightly salted. Few stores carry
unstilted these days.

If you'd like, I'll actually send you some. Unsalted, dry roasted
peanuts. Let me know. I'll even pay the shipping.

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.

If you want high quality peanuts I can tell you the best peanuts are
those that you make yourself. and they are so so easy to make. 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.

I like the cashews (which I am not allergic to) from Nutz.com. Their chocolates are crap,
but the cashews were superior. That is the only kind of nut I have ordered from them.

Redskins peanuts are just commercial peanuts that have been
roasted and shelled but they were too lazy to remove the skins.
You can eat them but most people just wipe them off before eating
the peanut.

Redskin peanuts are a varietal that goes by the name Valencia, most
call them Spanish peanuts.

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!"

The Walmart Food center didn't have unsalted. I was there yesterday.

Not at the food center and I try not to go to the regular Walmart. Too many
drug deals in that parking lot.

I'll call your bluff and raise you an, "In stock today, pick up
available in two hours." <clink>. Just say "Sqwertz" when they ask
you the "security question". You'll know it when you hear it. And
don't bow your head and mumble the answer, or then I'll REALLY go
K.Lewis on you.

(Wow. I think I just had a small epiphany. I think I just now
realized why people love to hate me. Or maybe it was just that pink
chicken sludge "Jalapeno Bologna" (Oscar Mayer, and ObFood) with
Woeber's Horseradish Sauce I just ate at 5:AM)

And she goes right for to the $2,000 answer at the start of Double
Jeopardy.

But, but.... a couple months ago you insisted that you get the same
prices online as you do in the stores?!?!? 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.

No, that's NOT what you meant at the time. Specifically in the
Campbells Soup thread. Shipping cost was NEVER part of the price
you were arguing.

But... but.. they don't exist at other stores, is what you said at
the beginning of the thread! (not to mention you're always telling
how you have to buy extra stuff to make minimum orders).

You're getting even shittier at this rather than batter.

You have 27 hours and 45 minutes left to pick up your peanuts at
Walmart.

It doesn't bother me at all to eat the skins of the redskins variety. No
taste difference that I can discern.

You must be having problems with your eyesight as I CAN FIND ALL KINDS OF PEANUTS in our stores and I live outside of the USA where they originate.

From the woman who orders the most mundane products online but can't bothered
to order peanuts although there is no shortage in her area. Just too lazy
to get off her butt look at another store. In six months she'll deny she's
had any problem finding peanuts, any variety, in her area.

by plain peanuts do you mean the unshelled raw peanuts? If you are
then there must be a farmers market around you if you live in a decant
sized city.. If not find your nearest farmers market and go and buy
like 10 pounds of raw nuts

No Farmer's Market this time of year. I don't need that many nuts. Don't
want raw ones. Don't want to roast them. And no. I'm not getting an air
fryer.

Wrong season to get much of a farmers market most places actually. We
have a year round one but it's mostly crafts and winter veggies (plus
some hot house stuff) at this season. We'd have bins of raw peanuts at
ours because it's something that keeps well.

I have an Airfryer and an Airfyer oven. We love them both) The cooking
is fast and it uses such a tiny amount of oil. Healthy)

Not me, can't you read??? It's Ju-Ju in her imaginary world that can't seem
to locate peanuts.

I can locate plenty of peanuts. Just not the ones I want.
