Deep Fried Peanuts | Eat 'Em Shell-n-all | 7 oz. | 2 Pack (Salted)
I**Y
Delicious and crunchy!
These are really good! I was hesitant to buy them right now at the end of July, because I went to their website to see if they had the Cajun salt ones in stock, because they are out of that one here. The site said this: "Our supply of peanuts has been exhausted until the new crop is harvested in the fall. Please check back with us in November.". *WOW*, so I came back here to order the salted ones since that is all that is available. Now I know why. So, November I am going to buy the fresh ones and compare, but I have to say, these taste fresh to me. Crispy, crunchy, salty goodness! They seem to be better quality than the kind I got from a friend from Jerky dot com. Those were pretty pitiful being cajun ones, and hardly tasted the seasoning at all. So, flavor-wise, these just salted ones are far better, but I do think the Jerky ones had a thinner shell. This shell isn't thick like a normal shell, but they are slightly thicker than the jerky brand ones. In any case, I will be buying more as long as the price doesn't go up anymore. Basically $5.50 for each 7oz bag as the 2pack is $11.15 currently. That's very pricey! It's also typical of jerky's price as well, so seems to be standard. Now that I'm thinking about them, I'm going to go grab some for a late night snack! Try them, you will love them, and if you are looking for a unique gift for someone that loves nuts, send them these!

THE BEST PEANUTS!!!
I’ve been continuously ordering from this seller recently. I’ve eaten them whole or just put the peanut in my mouth and get the flavor from the shell, then just crack it open and eat the peanut only. They are a bit salty but I have a remedy for that. I get a paper towel, wipe the excess salt off and enjoy with a plastic Walmart bag for my shells. I’ve yet to receive a package where they were stale (as some commentators have stated). My only complaint with this seller is….they don’t have the garlic flavor.

Tried them, glad I did
So, I stumbled across these just looking for snacks. Shopping on here for food in the middle of the night while hungry, what could go wrong?Saw these and thought: “why not?” I love roasted peanuts, never tried boiled peanuts, or these deep fried peanuts. Seemed delicious and the idea of eating the shell and all seemed interesting. Added to the cart and hit buy.Watched a few video reviews while these things shipped. Saw some mixed results, there was mostly praise.When they arrived, I was happy. It didn’t solve the midnight munchies during the previous week. But I had a new snack to try, and that was reason enough.CAJUN Flavored Review:Cracked into this flavor first. Ate a few, tried them without the shell and tried the eat the shell gimmick. I taste nothing, no Cajun seasoning far as I can tell. Set them aside and sealed them. Few days later I tried them again. Still, tasted like a greasy peanut. I get halfway into the bag finally, I start tasting what I would consider the cajun seasoning. But mostly salt. (Which I get is part of that kind of seasoning) For whatever reason, most of the flavoring fell off the peanut and settled on the bag or at the bottom of the bag.My advice?Give these peanuts a shake before you dive in. No ideas otherwise unless you want to re-season them yourself.SALT Flavored Review:Pretty much what you expect of a salted nut. I wish I could say something more about them but really, just tasted like your lightly salted average peanut. Which if it isn’t broke, right?Of the people I asked if they wanted to try them, only one tried a salted deep fried peanut. They was also intrigued by the concept of eating the shell, and a chuckle at making something relatively healthy a bit unhealthy was a funny concept - but hey, fair food does the same thing and it works.I’m glad I tried these. They’re kind of like eating a sunflower seed with the shell. Just at the end of it’s digestion trail.. It doesn’t feel like you’re passing a pine cone when nature decides to call (if you ate a few sunflower seeds shell and all, you probably know what I’m saying).The price? I don’t get why it was higher here. Maybe for those who don’t have them locally or at their gas station. Or to cash in on someone’s curiosity.The video reviews I saw they found them local and they was under $5 a bag (specifically if memory serves.. $3-4 price range) on here I paid $11 + tax for two bags.I’m glad I tried them and all, I didn’t taste much a difference, sometimes you get that gem of a slightly more roasted peanut in a bag with roasted peanuts.. I wouldn’t hold out the same optimism with this cooking method.With the seasoning settling at the bottom of the bag, and pretty much buying salt and slightly more salty flavors.Wish I had looked further into different flavors before buying.If you like peanuts, and don’t have that allergy to them. I suggest giving these a try at least once. If you can get them local, and cheaper I say go for it as well.

Very salty
I live on the West coast and was only exposed to deep fried peanuts years ago on an East coast road trip. I got the hankering for them last month and looked on Amazon and found these. I am glad I bought them and tasted deep fried peanuts again, however, the 2 packages that I received were way to salty for me and I literally had to rinse them off before I could eat them. My husband who is salt-happy even said that they are too salty. I only gave freshness a 3 star rating, but this could be because the only time I had this type of peanut was straight out of the fryer and any bagged product would not be able to compete with such an experience. I would buy them again if I had another hankering.

Don't buy these
The peanuts have not been fried long enough to make them easy to eat shell and all. The salted ones are way too salty. The Cajun flavored ones taste good, but once again they have not been fried long enough and are difficult to eat. I have eaten fried peanuts before that were better than these. I do not recommend these.

Seasoned Fried Nuts
Arrived quickly. They taste delicious, but too small quantity for the price.

I love these peanuts!
I first discovered these at a small convenience store in my hometown. I love these things! It was very convenient to be able to have them delivered directly to my home. I don’t believe that that convenience store is still open so this is a nice alternative. They are so addictive!

This is very different than roasted or boiled peanuts, what a treat!
This is very different than roasted or boiled peanuts, what a treat! The Cajun flavor is excellent while the regular is good to stick in the oven and put your own seasoning on. Highly recommend these.
