[quote=doubledenim][quote=ynwtf]So. Coming from the self-proclaimed Peanut Capital of the World, how many of y'all eat boiled peanuts?

[quote=John McClane]No joke, them Virginia peanuts are pretty huge.[/quote]

[quote=John McClane]"Virginia Peanuts are one of 4 types of peanuts grown in the U.S. - primarily in Virginia and the Carolinas - and are the largest kernel size of all."[/quote]

[quote=John McClane]Yeah, boiled peanuts are a Virginia staple. People swap those cans year round like fruit cake at Christmas time. Birthday? Boiled peanuts. Anniversary? Boiled peanuts. Passed a kidney stone? Boiled peanuts.[/quote]

[quote=Chypmunk]Ever so sorry but you lost me at no shells ;)[/quote]

[quote=ynwtf]Where's DD and John to back me up here....?[/quote]

[quote=ynwtf]well, I highly recommend trying some. Find some fresh, dry (not cooked, but completely raw) in-shell peanuts, wash them as best you can, then boil them up in a stock pot full of salty water (the saltier the better) for 6 hours or ever how long it takes for the nut to be as soft as a cooked kidney bean. Don't eat the shell. I don't know what you fer'ners are allowed to eat over there, but these are pretty common here for football game watching and the sort.[/quote]

[quote=Chypmunk]Mmmmm iderno, do you need to ship me one??[/quote]

[quote=ynwtf]Do I need to ship you a can of boiled peanuts?[/quote]

[quote=Chypmunk]Prefer mine marinated in goose fat and chilli flakes for 72 hours and then barbequed truth be told. Oh, gotta be kept in the shells too - stops 'em going soggy (as well as adding a nice bit of crunch/texture).[/quote]
