These peanuts are smaller than what you normally see as peanuts in the shell. 3 and 4 in a pod are common. I do not know if the different style of peanut (I believe they are the spanish peanut varietal) or if it is the frying of them that makes the shells easier to digest and not tear up the lower GI.

So. Me and the future wife took a trip to SC and GA. I stumbled across a place called Carolina Cider company that also had these on hand. I only grabbed a bag of Cajun and they are very tasty.
