I just got a brown paper bag of dark roasted peanuts from the flea market today. Delicious! I like the dark roasted because they are nearly burnt, and have coffee or dark cocoa tones. Who else out there loves dark roasted peanuts? -Joe

Never tried that, but I like dark roasted coffee and dark roasted onions, so maybe they will be good. My last girlfriend was kind of dark and roasty, too, and she roasted my heart to a crisp, but I guess I shouldn't hold that against the peanuts, seeing as how they really had nothing to do with it beyond a casual similarity of color.

Exactly. Those extra dark pretzels are excellent as well. A pig roast and some mariachi would be great right about now.-joe

Hey Julie,

These?

In 1916, the company held a contest in which the winning design would become their brand icon. Young Antonio Gentile submitted a sketch of an anthropomorphic peanut with arms and crossed legs which he called "Mr. Peanut." A graphic artist later added a monocle, top hat, white gloves, and a cane to indicate that Planters peanuts were in a class of their own. And Antonio? He won the grand prize...a whole $5!" From.

I miss the great Mr. Peanut sign in San Francisco.
