Purple Peanuts
My mother's friend gave her a package of these peanuts. As I was preparing dinner, I listened to my mother gush about this variety of nuts. "They're special because they're purple." Purple peanuts? I didn't quite believe her. I cracked one open.
Okay, now I believe her.

rad! how do they taste?
whoa, I've never seen those! Do they taste like regular peanuts?
Ooh, do tell more!
Interesting! How do they taste?
Neato ... another request for a taste update. The speckles on the inside of the shell look like cheetah spots ... :)
(Clicked over from dlyn's blog.)
So cool! Can you peel off the purple part and they're a normal color? Or are they purple all the way through?
How cool! I love finding a new color of an old product I love! Have you tried the purple or orange cauliflower??
WOW, love this purple peanut. I don't think I seen it before.
Beautiful!
Dried apple slices, strawberry roll ups, banana slices, purple peanuts....you can now make your own trail mix of fruits and nuts :p
That's crazy! Does that mean there is purple peanut butter too?
That's amazing.
Huh?! What did they do to these poor peanuts.
A purple peanut? this is the first time I have seen or heard of it :)))
Beautiful! Its great to find new breeds of common things
I'm intrigued. Never even heard of a purple peanut. So pretty. I just had purple cauliflower for the first time yesterday. Loving all things purple. ;)
But are they good- that's the big question, right?
My son is a peanut freak...he even grew his own...wait till I tell him about these...thanks!

Wow, that's so cool!
Neat! This is the first I've heard of them as well!
Love your blog b.t.w. -starting with the name .. so cute!
That's exactly same like the braised peanuts here in Jakarta/ Indonesia (I did blog about it in March).
Glad that finally you got the chance to see and try it by yourself. How's it? Do you like it?
thats probs the best thing ive read about today! a purple peanut is so willy wonka style!
Wow, I've never seen this before! Does the purple go all the way through?
This is the frist time I've seen purple peanuts. Do they taste different and where do they come from?
Wow, they're so cool! I'm always on the lookout for unique ingredients. I wonder if they'd make purple peanut butter?
Thanks for sharing! Purple peanuts, who would have thought?
Very interesting. Where do you find them?
I've never seen or heard of purple peanuts! That's pretty awesome!
I've never heard of purple peanuts - how fun.
Very interesting...where are they from?
Everything is better when it's purple! At Tracht's in Long Beach (and Jar in L.A.) they server Japanese purple yams with creme fraiche and chives...mmmmm
this look so gorgeous, love the colour!
I'm seeing purple everywhere - purple asparagus and now purple peanuts! I'll have to take your word for their taste, though; I can't have them!
hahaha purple peanuts should be Eminem's next song
Purple peanuts..who knew???
Thanks for always leaving such sweet sweet comments on my blog!
You are darling!
Glad you posted a pic...because I needed to see them to believe!
Wow - amazing! I've never even heard of these before. Not that I know everything :) I wonder if they have purple peanut butter?
Where would you find those?
Nice picture. What did you do with it?
How pretty are those. Where do you find them?
Never seen that around here!! Very pretty-where did she get them?
I can't help it--I've got to sing,
"One eyed one horned flying purple people eater!"
We love all kinds of nuts! I will definitely have to look for these, very curious about the taste!
This is my first time to see purple peanut. Like others, curious about the taste and where it is from. Thanks and look forward to hearing from you.
Grace and peace to you
I learned something new today - thank you!
But they're purple! Like misshapen jelly beans! How fun! Cold noodles with purple peanut sauce. I'm game!
One word=AWESOME!
Have a good night sweetie!
With Love,
Emily
Hmm, I've seen purple potatoes and cabbage but this is sure a first for peanuts! =)
For the record, my mom has never once given me purple peanuts. Clearly I've been neglected.
Purple peanuts!? Wonder how they taste, wish I could lay my hands on some...
Beautiful! are they healthier than normal peanuts?
Jac
Wow, What a beatiful blog - fills my mind and my stomach. And eloquent too. One of my new favourites.
These are awesome. They would make a beautiful peanut butter!!!
Didn't know there was such a thing, I would definitely try some as long as they are healthy for the body...which i'm sure they are
