sometimes i dont want my hands to get salty but snack on peanuts... guess how i go about that -_-

edit: chips can be easily dealt with using chopsticks btw. putting them in a large bowl first helps too, so the back of your hand doesnt get greasy either...

Try cracking them inside your mouth after putting them in a bowl and spitting the rest, like with sunflower seeds. The problem woukd be the amount of salt you are ingesting.

excuse me, i tried following your suggestions... now my bowl has a bitemark where i chipped off some of it, my mouth is bleeding (ceramic bowl), and chips and peanuts are everywhere.... i think i might need a doctor

j/k but what the hell do you mean "try cracking them inside your mouth?" roasted, salted peanuts are usually already husked.... and chips dont have a husk... im confused but dont need a doctor actually XD

I usually buy them with salted husk so they need to be cracked, just my preference though

i have never seen salted peanuts still with husk... whats the salts purpose in this case?

are we talking about the same species? Arachis hypogaea?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

Yep, same species. I really don't know why they are salted while inside the husk but where I live you can get them with and without husk and some restaurants offer them husked and with salt.
