My parents (mid 70s )are from the south, and my mom still talks about coke bottles with peanuts to this day. I have yet to try it.
But of course ive heard them talk about drawing an imaginary circle around a chicken and the chicken won't leave the circle. And then they would ring it's neck.

I love an RC, but it isn’t fizzy enough for peanuts. Got to have Coke, cold as you can get it.

Don’t know what to think about people who don’t like putting peanuts in coke.

Growing up in Texas, I mostly heard of putting salted peanuts in Dr. Pepper. Never tried it though.

You yankee folk aren’t known for knowing what’s good. Peanuts in coke is good shite. If you didn’t even understand the concept, you’ve never tried it. I don’t know what would be stupid about it. Broaden your horizons a little, and try it.

The United States of America is pretty good... are you anti-America?

Also, abolishing slavery was pretty good too... are you pro-slavery?

Hold on. So you’re saying I get some peanuts and put them in my
Mouth and then drink coke? Or I put peanuts in coke and drink it? Not that there is much difference there.

Holy hell. Get a good cold coke, preferably in a bottle, drink a little out, and dump you some salted peanuts in it. Yes, there is a difference. Try it, and you’ll know.

So the goal is drink “salty coke” and then presumably “eat the peanuts” at the bottom?

Sounds dumb.

And don’t call me Skippy, Chief...

You drink the coke and eat the peanuts at the same time. Just give it a try some time. Or not. Tens of thousands of people have enjoyed it for decades, but do you brother.

Now I’m only intrigued because of the skepticism I have that one could drink the soda and simultaneously enjoy the peanuts... in my mind the peanuts sink to the bottom and stay there. Am I wrong?

Also, “tens of thousands for decades” does not make me trust this practice... but I sincerely appreciate you attempting to be accurate with your estimate as opposed to over-embellishing. #realtalk

Speaking of weird food/drink practices, I’ve been putting ketchup on my mac and cheese ever since I can remember... but I didn’t learn that it was “weird” until I moved away from home...

And I apologize for calling you or any who does the “coke/peanut thing” stupid... it was uncalled for and just as you articulated, you do you.

This was my Dad’s tradition whenever we went fishing. That first salty swig is amazing. God, I miss him.
