Products circa: summer 2026
I'm late in the year to report on these semiquincentennial snacks from July. As rare editions of Planters peanuts, these are essentially cocktail peanuts with potato chip-esque flavor powders added to them. Not that I am complaining... flavored nut mixes are rare around these parts, for some reason.
Ranch: I'm not a ranch guy, but these are alright. Any cool ranch Doritos fans would gobble these up.
Sweet Cayenne BBQ: These are more special; I've bought several of these since July. Not only does the barbecue flavor work better on peanuts than ranch, the barbecue seasoning on these are a step above anything I've tasted on a chip. You have the sweet molasses/tomato base like usual, but the smokiness here is something I haven't tasted since the old Lay's KC Masterpiece chips. On top of that, there is a noticeable mustard component to these, which is reflected on the ingredients list. A complex masterpiece for a peanut snack. What a shame that these will probably never be produced again.
