I'm from peanut country (if you look at a bag of peanuts, it was

probably produced and packaged right around my hometown in Virginia.

Where I grew up, peanuts flew off the shelves, and you could drive a

couple of miles out of town and get them right from the farmers. We

like our peanuts.

When I left home for the bright lights and big city, though, I found

that peanuts were not quite the same. I wanted raw peanuts to cook

myself, but they didn't come out right.

Then I found out that peanuts mold easily, and, if they are on the

shelf, they have plenty of opportunity to do so.

When I got into guarding against candida, I had to jettison my

peanuts, because they might contain mold which could kick me into

relapse. Later on, I have heard about the aflotoxin (or whatever)

that Tommie has mentioned.

Meanwhile, I found that peanuts give me major heartburn (I had never

had heartburn, didn't really understand the term, couldn't understand

how someone could have " heartburn " and think it is was a heart attack,

or, as was my grandfather's case, have a heart attack and think it was

heartburn! Whoa! Now I know! Not fun!) Peanuts are so off my list of

food.
