Southern Staple...18 Years Late


Okay I admit I was a bit chicken to try boiled peanuts.  I have always heard that they can be a bit slimy.  Well, after living in the South 18 years now, I have finally tried them and understand why some people love them.

They came to our table nice and warm and the peanuts had a softened, but still chewy texture to them.  And as a non meat protein source, I get it.  Now, if someone offers me some, I'll have a few.  And in the future, maybe I'll be a bit more adventurous.

Well, maybe....
