These circle k’s in the city area of BR. I wanted a good cup of boiled peanuts terribly. What I got was half arse crunchy boiled bullshite and like 1,900 mg sodium. Someone didn’t get the message that boiled peanuts are supposed to be soft and if it’s worth doing it’s worth doing right. I could have bought a sack of boiling peanuts and did it myself by now. Drafting a letter tonight or this weekend.

I think it’s your fault for expecting Circle K to have good boiled peanuts

You’re getting boiled peanuts from a gas station on a Friday night. How do you expect them to taste?

I will get down voted to hell for this, but I don't like them, they take off the salt that adds flavor.

From what I’m trying to munch on right now it’s like someone literally forgot to plug in something or poured a sack of salt into it, not some mundane detail. In other words a case of the IDGAF’s. So that being said I think I will actually make my own from now on. (Inspirational music plays)

Guess what Apu stirred the brine with before he heated it and added the nuts. Did the peanuts have a little wang to the taste?

I've done the grocery store Boiled Peanuts and the gas station is serving the same crap. I saw the Sam's size barrel of Boiled Peanuts on the counter one day and it was the same brand.

I've picked them up in Mississippi from the dude on the side of the road who usually sets up on 607 across from Welcome Center.

They aren’t that hard to boil. I add a little liquid crab boil to mine. Thank me later.

You must be the guy who buys that hot dog on the rotisserie at the movies that looks like it’s been there a week. And then complains that it’s poor quality.

Yep. They are pretty good. They have regular (salty) and cajun (spicey). The last two times I went there, it was a woman serving.

There’s only two places I eat boiled peanuts from. Mine and the Texaco station at the 4-way stop in Woodville
