Trying to eat healthier, (edit for me this means lower sugar, less carbs, more protein) and it seems like everything that is sweet, sweet-ish, or a snack but also sold as healthy has peanuts or is peanuts. I'm not allergic to it, but I am tired of peanut butter cookies, peanuts in a snack bar, peanuts on their own, peanuts in a snack mix.

Boil them with crab boil and a ton of crushed red pepper. So good.

The best I can find around here in north Texas are pre packaged raw peanuts, so they’re kinda old and super dry. They still boil up fine, but it takes for-fucking-ever. I’ve found that salt and Adobo seasoning gives them a nice mellow garlic flavor that works really well for me. Canned Cajun style are good too, though there are more squishies than I’d prefer.

Oh, I like it spicy. They ship pretty well if you know somebody who lives somewhere that they're more readily available. Until I found somewhere to buy fresh peanuts locally, I occasionally had a family member ship them to me from Florida. They might be available online, too.
