[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1478986, member: 18945"] " We call them parched peanuts" Ah yes..that's what my father called them too..memory jogged. Spread them out in a big flat pan and stuck 'em in the oven and mom occasionally shook the pan so none would burn too badly on the bottom. Right out of the oven still warm were a pretty good treat for our family that didn't get many back in those days. Made a nice aroma in the kitchen too. The little things I miss....... Mostly tho, we fed the whole vines, peanuts and all to the cows same as JD said. Our soil was a pretty tight black gumbo so we had to pick the right time to pull em or run a single bottom plow along the rows to unearth them then go along and shake the dirt off the plants and peanuts. Nowadays, ants would probably be a big problem..there weren't as many fire ants back then. I haven't seen peanuts grown around here in a long time. I remember too, my mother made a candy with the peanuts around Christmas..brittle using ribbon cane syrup. So much better than the 'peanut patty' you would by at the 5/10 cent store. [/QUOTE]
