The poll is open.

If you can find them spiced up hot, even better.

 

[SID297]

It's green season, so we've been making our own.

They don’t really sell them in Sarasota, I used to buy them all the time on my way to Cape Coral to race dirt bikes and such. Loved those peanuts!

 

[Junior00]

Cajun…yum

 

[WutApex]

I voted disgusting…while I don’t think they are quite that bad, I certainly wasn’t impressed by them in the slightest.

It’s been years since I’ve had them but would be open to trying them again.

It’s different but delicious…
I got introduced to it with my VIET neighbor like 10+ years ago…
Popular with the VIETs…

I have been interested in trying these for a while but around here all I see are canned in terms of processed availability. The texture is what has my curiosity as I wonder if the peanut is rubbery or perhaps softer than a normal peanut.

 

[lOOKnGO]

I prefer drupes over legumes, but enjoy both. Partial to Virginia farmed and flavored peanuts.

 

[Crimson2v]

They are disgusting, dry roasted is the best.

 

[HEMIHUNTER]

Oh, hell yes.
Get a large 50/50 mix Cajun/Regular.
Even Race Trac sells them now lol.

Yeah, if they’re overdone and mushy they’re not so good.

Never had them. Do you eat them right after they have been boiled or are they boiled and good to eat anytime after. They don't sound good but I would give them a try.

Hell yeah to all of the above. You can usually find guys selling them on the side of the main road into town. Farmers market guy guy has them on the weekends as well.

They sit in a hot brine.

That doesn't sound good, I would still try them though.
Cow tongue tacos didn't sound good either but they are delicious!

maybe Ive never had good ones, they were mushy both times and couldn't get past that

The greens are the best. I can eat pounds of those at a time.

I heard this was a Southern thing to do with peanuts too.
