Pepparami peanuts.

Oh my gosh.

Spicy, crunchy and soooo nice. Only 189 calories for 35g too.

UK people... You need to try them. Ha ha!

    From the photo I found on Google, they look like what we'd called japanese peanuts or asian peanuts.
    If so, YES!
    They are yummy. I find it hard to stop at 200 calories worth, but do love them.
    Hubs too. In fact they are often stocking stuffers at Christmas.

    We have choices here. Some are super spicy. Some aren't. I like the spicy ones.

    If you enjoy a spicy snack, may I also suggest Wasabi peas?

    Yes, you may. And you get like 40 peas in a serving. I never eat that many, because ouch!

    ohhh yeah! I love them. They are not too different calorie wise, about 40 less or so per 35gm, but they weigh a bit less so more volume and whoa they can get hot, so I do eat less. I love peanuts, but I could go overboard easy, hot or not. That and the oh so lovely crunchy peanut butter!

    They could, but I like Hot, really hot and some varieties of wasabi peas can be hotter than others. I have had some where I have to just let my toung "sweat" in between bites. So, a serving can last me a while. I also drink loads of water, which doesn't really stop the heat :tongue: I did and still do make the mistake (I must love pain :lol: ) of popping a few in my mouth and sucking on them before I crunch down ha ha. I love them and the OP made me think of adding them to my grocery list next month. That along with an accurate food scale, digital w/ tare and unit measurments (i'm so excited about a scale, the one i have is not digital, so I'm still guessing) Ohhh but back on the snacks :yum: wasabi peas, If I could (maybe in the future as I am still conditioning my habits) I will have peanuts, but I could eat my whole day allotment in peanuts....
