Peanuts

[Julie Bove]

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?

[jmcquown]

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!

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!"

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

deshelling peanuts can be a pain but it gives me something to do when

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.

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

[jmcquown]

I only ever use the redskins (raw, usually labelled Spanish) to make
peanut brittle. I used to make it every year around the holidays which
is about the only time I could find raw peanuts. Years ago a friend of
my brother made some and gave it to him. Apparently she used unsalted
dry roasted peanuts to make the brittle and oh boy, was it bad! The
already cooked peanuts got burnt when added to the candy mixture. Guess
she didn't bother to taste it before she gave it to him.

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...

Why do you sometimes say you never drink alcohol and other times you

Yeah, they're good. I think I like all nuts. I'm making nut burgers
soon. That might sound like a vegetarian nightmare, but they can be
quite good.

I believe that pecans are one of the nuts that are lowest in calories.

What I meant was... You have to place a minimum order for free shipping. I

I can't speak for Washington, where Julie lives, but here in Michigan:

1. Peanuts don't grow here.
2. It's winter. Farmers' markets are closed.

Of course. There is always an excuse why you can't follow any reasonable
advise. Bulk stores are very careful with their products. IF they went
rancid it was after you bought them.

[cshenk]

Thats one thing we have cheap here in Virginia Beach. The city of
Suffolk is a major peanut growing area. It's about a 2 hour drive west
and a little south to get to Severn NC (where Hampton Farms is). Major
product here is raw in the shell.

We are also a major place for sweet potatoes and strawberries.

[cshenk]

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.

No I have not "started" gardening, I garden pretty much year round....
I plant my garlic in the fall harvest almost a year later, I keep
parsley, green onions, a few other herbs all year, plant basil seeds
in late winter harvest throughout the spring summer and fall, I freeze
what I dont use for winter use, ginger is grown all year blackberries
only come in the spring, several other herbs that I garden I will also
plant in the late winter for use throughout the spring summer and fall

We don't like peanuts so no. I do roast a lot of stuff in them though.
Tomorrow I will roast a chicken in the AF (not oven). 35mins one side, turn
it over and 35mins the other. I do test it with a thermo though to make
sure it is cooked through.

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.

I've got a basil plant under the halogen lights on my range hood. I
buy parsley and green onions; I usually have them on hand all the time.

I used to grow tomatoes, but I had too much trouble with blossom-end rot,
mosaic virus and other diseases.

Looks like their climate isn't suitable for growing peanuts, either.
No peanut farms = no peanuts at the farmers' market.

It's completely out of proportion. If you find what she says so

I don't keep track the way you do. Maybe she's changed her mind. Maybe

No need to 'keep track.' She's caught in a lie at least once monthly and
then claim she didn't say that. But people like you and the senile Oh-feel
