Thank you for sharing and it is the first time for me to know peanut is like that instead of ..... in a bag roasted and salted....

They are a good crop. I didn't like them much raw at first, I thought they tasted somewhere between bland and earthy, but now I will buy a kina's worth and munch along with the best of them. They are a solid snack. They also come boiled (still in the shells and bunches as you see here) which I don't like so much; they are a bit soft; and "fire", in which case they are sold in small red plastic bags after having been roasted/fried -- still in the shells. They are cunchy and I like them too.

Thank you for your information.

But, 6 peanuts = 1 spoon of oil.... not good for an over weighted me

…and your total intake. The oil content is why I called them a "solid snack" -- a smallish amount eaten slowly (and that is the only way you can eat them out of the shell) keeps you satisfied and well fuelled longer than a bunch of processed food sugary snacks which might also have a high oil content. And, of course, there is the total  intake to consider -- that's what really matters (I speak from somewhat "unlean" experience -- one of the reasons I go on these walking tours in the morning). :\
