Circus Peanuts

[chell]

Anyone else here addicted to them? They have to be fresh enough and not contain any eggs in order for me to buy them. But once I find a brand I like I buy a bag and the entire thing is gone within 24 hours. I'm not much of a snacker but something happens with those things and they just keep jumping in my mouth.

Please tell me I'm not the only one!!!!!

My sister is the same way, eats a whole bag in a day.

I like them but not that many.


We buy Spangler circus peanuts.

eggs?

I love peanuts. Any kind. They are just about the only protein I get.

 

[ADisneygirl]

Are you talking about the candy peanuts? The ones shaped like a peanut but are not real peanuts?

I remember these from my childhood. My brother loved them. I could take them or leave them. I preferred chocolate snap cookies and party mints.

LOVE THEM.....

but not many people do. Generally I have found it's either love or hate. Period.

no eggs? Does that make a difference taste/quality wise or are you just allergic?

 

[chell]

Kalen I agree about the love or hate thing.

No eggs because I'm allergic and many companies put eggs in theirs.

I swear there is nothing else in life that I can consume an entire container of. These must do something to my brain.

Pooh that is the brand I like as well. I had to look at mine to check. This bag will be gone by bed time.

I can eat only one. Kind of like marshmellow peeps. They remind me of spring (I don't know why) and I like to have one every year. Otherwise, they're kind of sickening (no offense, ).

 

[chell]

They are super sweet which is why I'm shocked I can eat so many of them. But I won't go anywhere near a Peep. Yuck!

Please tell me I'm not the only one!!!!!

I admit the addiction as well. Unfortunately the entire bag isn't very WW friendly!!

hehe Yeah, I'm sure it isn't. I bet even one isn't. Thank goodness I haven't found a huge bag of them.

The good thing is that I only get them about once maybe twice a year so it isn't too bad.

I liked them when I was a kid, but as an adult, blech!

If someone has them, I will eat one just out of sentimentality.

 

[LadyyRedd]

I love them too. I thought I was the only person in the world! But I can only eat 2 or 3 at a time because they get too sickeningly sweet.

They actually aren't too bad WW point wise. I think they are 1 pt each? or maybe 3/4 point each? I'd have to look on the bag I have of them at work.

But once I find a brand I like I buy a bag and the entire thing is gone within 24 hours.

I did this once when I was around 8 but instead of eating the whole bag in 24 hours, it was more like ONE hour!

I threw up orange the rest of the day and night. I was never so sick!

My brother and I were spending the night at my grandma's. She was the one that let me eat them. My mom hardly ever allowed us to have candy. I thought my grandma was going to kill me and then I thought my mom was going to kill my grandma!

If I even LOOK at them in the store now, I have to go running the other direction. Just the thought of them makes me sick all over again!

So, thanks for starting this thread! I'll have to avoid the community board now until it scrolls off of page one so I don't make myself sick everytime I see it!!!

 

[PolyHereWeCome]

yum, love the Spanglers!

 

[antmaril]

I LOVE Circus Peanuts. I can't buy them because I will eat the whole bag.

I LOVE Circus Peanuts. I can't buy them because I will eat the whole bag.

Yes...me too. And then I'll have a belly ache.
