: When i worked at M&M Mars Co. peanut processing plant in Albany, Ga.(1971) the trick was to eat the peanuts as they came out of the drier, or right off the end of the roaster. We processed the peanuts that went into all the Mars candies (M&Ms, Snickers, Combo Munch Bar, etc.). The peanuts were never "mushy" from the drier......they just lacked salt!

Yeah, but...yeah, but...but, Uncle Dave...wouldn't the peanuts out of the drier be ROASTED, and thus, GOOD? It's those dadblamed ones that are "BALLED" in hot water that are always so dang mushy! They taste too much like a VEGETABLE to me! Like kidney beans, except with less flavor! Anything that dries them out or roasts/toasts/parches them is okay by me. Just keep 'em outta that there "ballin'" pot!
