Virginia Peanuts Recipes Food Cooking International Guide
Virginia Peanuts Are Delicious And Crunchy
By John Cranby
Virginia peanuts are getting quite popular, especially among
my family and visitors to my home. I get Virginia peanuts auto
shipped every three months from a supplier in Virginia. They taste
so delicious and crunchy, that we have considered increasing our
order to get more peanuts shipped to us.
We normally consume a whole can of Virginia peanuts within a
couple of weeks after receiving it. We receive a number of cans
at a time, but it seems the number of cans does not cover the
need for more Virginia peanuts among our family and visitors to
our home.
Visiting Our Nephew In Virginia
It all started when we decided we wanted to visit our nephew
in Virginia. My nephew and his wife transferred to the state of
Virginia for his career. He is a pharmaceutical researcher. He
is researching on the development of synthetic insulin.
His wife is a dentist so she took her board exam to qualify to
practice in that state. After they had a chance to get settled
they invited my husband and I to come and spend time with them.
A Two Day Drive
We had never been to the south east coast, so we decided to drive.
We live in Minnesota so this was a two day drive. It was interesting
to see the fields of cotton as well as Virginia peanuts.
These are crops that are not grown in our cold climate. When
we arrived at my nephew’s home we made plans for the time that
we would be there.
We enjoyed our time looking at the monuments and museums in Washington
DC. We realized that we would have to make a return trip because
there is so much to see and do in our capital city.
A Can Of Virginia Peanuts
On our way back to my nephew’s house we stopped and picked up
a can of Virginia peanuts. They were the best peanuts that I have
ever tasted. They are large in size and are very hard and crunchy.
We shared some of them with my nephew and his wife.
They told us that there was a special store in the town that
they live in that sells the canned Virginia peanuts and ships
them all over the world. This shop has a history of the peanut.
We made plans to go there and review our options.
This shop had a unique variety of lawn and garden merchandize
in addition to the extensive collection of containers and cans
to fill with Virginia peanuts.
Auto Shipment List
You can be placed on an auto shipment list so that the company
sends the nuts out to you at agreed upon intervals. The owner
of the company explained that Virginia ham gets its distinctive
flavor because the hogs are raised on Virginia peanuts.
It was not until the civil war that are people started eating
the nuts as a source of protein. They liked the taste so much
that the crop became a people food in addition to being pig fodder.
We arranged to have a shipment of the nuts sent to us every three
months. We enjoyed our trip to the state of Virginia very much.
Tasty And Ready To Eat
We have a delicious reminder of our vacation every month when
we get our new shipment of Virginia peanuts. They are always tasty
and ready to eat. I give them to my visitors and they want to
get auto shipped Virginia peanuts too. They didn’t realise
how delicious peanuts could be.
Some may be used to the dull taste of normal peanuts, but they
don’t know peanuts until they have tasted Virginia peanuts.
