Caution! watch for the peanut allergies .The markets are full of various sizes and different kinds of peanuts, salted, unsalted, spiced, roasted, blanched, chocolate covered, honey glazed etc. But, nothing like the fresh raw peanuts. While picking your peanuts make sure there is no fungus on it. Raw peanuts has moisture, which can quickly develop fungus. When we were little, This healthy snack used to be our after school snack.
