is it wierd to eat the peanut shells on peanuts? becuase instead os taking the shell off, i usually stick the whole thing in my mouth and eat it.

"When roasting peanuts, the toxicity of aflatoxin B1 is reduced by 70%, and that of aflatoxin B2 by 45%. Thus, heat treatment cannot be considered as a satisfactory means to eliminate mycotoxins."

Evidently, peanut shells are pretty good at accumulating fungal toxins. Is this significant? I have no idea. They aren't really intended for human consumption, though, so I wouldn't be surprised if they aren't held to reliable standards for it in the slightest.

The fungal toxins found in/around peanuts are kind of known for their tendency to cause cancer--enough that people in Thailand stopped eating them as frequently.

So, given what G-Flex said, I'd probably try to stop.

right, no more eating peanut shells.

can i at least suck on em?

Hmm, get some pork fat, fry it in butter 'till crispy.

Replace all instances of bacon in your diet with this, VERY high energy content.

Have you tried a Double Down yet?

Dang it!

Is there anything good and true left in this world? Why is everything trying to kill us?

[Nivim]

 Oh, it's not that they're trying to kill you; it's that it's just so easy to do.

People are as resilient as they are frail. Not as easy to kill someone (with everyday food) as you might think.
