I also chuckled at the "goober peas" -Lixy, get out of my head!!!

Speaking of peanuts, I often wonder how it's possible that all the squirrels around my house are always running around with nuts in their mouths. I don't see a stockpile of peanuts anywhere.

Any type of chocolate covered nuts!!!!

I'd like to see someone try

Boiled?? Why have I never heard anything except "Get your fresh.. ROASTED.. peanuts!" I often wondered how you roast something inside a shell. Wouldn't that be baking it?
I knew "goober peas" was another name for peanuts, but hot, wet, peanuts sounds like a whole different thing. Wouldn't they float? How the hell would you boil them? (Can you tell I don't cook? )

Somebody around here got me hooked on deep fried dill pickles ... although as much as I love them, I probably couldn't quite eat my weight in them. Maybe just two legs and an arm or so.

LOL Steph! I laugh at the damndest things!

And....our squirrels are stock piling "horse chestnuts" and black walnuts at the moment....I think they use em as currency when they go and buy peanuts at the little squirrel store in the woods! LMAO!

Thanks for the peanut boiling explaination Lilith!

Can you buy "raw green peanuts" anywhere? Sounds like something I'd like to try.

I would think a health food store, maybe a larger one, might carry them, DB.

Those damn Walmarts have everything, don't they? Raw green peanuts you can now get there? Jees, that'll spell the end of the mom & pop raw green peanut shop downtown! I'd picket, but no one will join me!

I was going to say chocolate..but all that talk about raw green peanuts may have just changed my mind
