I should say you can eat them shell and all, some people do (the cajun or spicy ones especially soak up a lot of flavor), while some people kinda do the whole edamame deal and discard the shell.

I've always wondered how people ate boiled peanuts. I sometimes used to eat a regular roasted peanut shell and all when I was a kid. But you can feel it coming out when you poop. And I've never seen someone eat the edamame shell. That's weird. edit: oh I misread that. No eating soy bean shells. Pennywise the Frown fucked around with this message at 01:37 on Jan 2, 2021 |

It's about a 60/40 split on boiled peanuts of shell discard/eat shell in people I've met.

Not really small town, but this thread reminded me of a tourist attraction from my hometown:  Featuring the world's largest wurlitzer organ.   Request a song and maybe they'll even have some cats dance along.   Experience it with this guy who describes it as "American eccentricism at its best". https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=iJ3w7tdh5to I spent a few birthdays at this restaurant, I mainly just remember the dancing cats and that the organist knew every song ever. When I expressed my amazement my dad said, "He doesn't know everything! Try requesting some Cosmo Topper!"

The Sherp was totally designed for that exact type of mud in inhospitable Russian floodplains. It's entirely amphibious with positive buoyancy, thus the paddled tires. The one that guy has in the video runs about $115,000.

Boiled peanuts are really common in southeast Asia, although no one eats the shells to my knowledge. The only place I've ever seen them in the US is at Mexican markets, I had no idea that there could be Americana boiled peanuts, nice find

If you really like peanut butter would you like boiled peanuts? Do they taste like peanut butter or do the good flavors all boil out? Are they slimy? Mushy? Maybe firm with a slight crunch kinda like a macadamia nut? Does anyone in new england sell them?

Some of those other mud bogging trucks he's running against are EASY getting close to that after some of those mods. Some of those are relatively new trucks with 30-40k of add on parts and entirely new engines in them, I mean, they're close.

Liked the slightly-crunchy and the flavor-savers? Dunno, seen a lot of people (weirdos?) eat them shell and all, maybe a weird machismo thing?

I'm not in the US but the first time I heard about boiled peanuts was here many, many years ago via that Steve Sutton blogger who the site was fascinated, with to the point of including him a flashtub. I've since been keen to try them.

Not technically Americana, but it reminds me of this stuff and may as well be. Sometime in 1970's Australia, some bloke got it in his mind (probably after visiting America) that building a huge gently caress off thing that represents his town would bring in tourists, or what amounted to tourism in those days. (Which meant a stop off for a piss, a pie and a sausage roll at the local bakery). So over the next two decades, literally hundreds of random 'big' things started appearing all over Australia, usually one per country town. Each one would think up a random thing that vaguely related to their town, usually a piece of fruit, and construct a huge fuckoff monstrosity with varying degrees of craftmanship. Many of these still exist today, rotting in the hot sun, relying on various business interest to care about giving them a new lick of paint every 15 years and patching holes. So we have Big Mangos,  Big oranges,  Big Pineapples,  Big Bananas,  Big Avocados,  But not all country towns are known for their fruit, so they had to get inventive... Big Koalas,  Big Galah's  Big Prawns,  Big Mosquitos, because that's what you want your town remembered for...  and my personal favourite, Larry the Big Lobster.  .This is by no means a definitive list of course. There's hundreds more of these things in various quality that have appeared and disappeared over the decades, as the ideal Australian family holiday moved on from endlessely driving around the country in a rented campavan taking photos at each and every 'big thing' and collecting the commerative teaspoon.
