    One time, after Halloween, the local store had candy corn on clearance sale, each container was 25 cents for a pound.

    My gut suffered. Wax belly is awful. Yet I never learned.

    Is candy corn crunchy now? I always thought it was kind of soft and chewy… I haven’t had any for a while though

    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?

              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.
