Chocolate Covered Peanuts

These are so tasty!! Great nuts, and chocolate - with just a hint of salt! So good - will buy again!!

These really are the very best chocolate covered peanuts you can buy. Just before writing this I noticed a review that these are “waxy chocolate” peanuts like the cheap variety one normally finds. They must have been mistaken because these are the opposite of what they wrote. Real high quality chocolate melts more quickly in your hands (or fingers) and these do just that. I found out the following from a gentleman who owns a number of chocolate retail stores and manufactures his own chocolate: High quality milk chocolate has a low melting point. You’ll know true high quality chocolate by the facts it melts quickly in your hand or fingers (plus there’s the great taste of course). Most cheap chocolates are made for customers who want to hold a handful of chocolate items and not get their hands messy. Thus cheaper chocolate will in fact contain ingredients to keep it from melting that make it look and feel “waxy” and also to reduce the amount of real chocolate (which is expensive) to save money. Also note that Virginia Diner makes these in smaller batches which is indicative of a craftsman-type care. The downside is that they’re not always available. One more thing: Because of the lower melting point, keep that in mind when ordering during the hot summer months. It’s possible that this package may get too warm in a hot truck or car. Stuff happens so don’t go off crazy on your delivery person if it does.

Good product

These used to be our favorite chocolate covered peanuts and we would order them several times a year. But now the coding on the peanuts is different from what it has been in the past. The chocolate used to be a very soft creamy delicious chocolate but now it’s more like the coating of an M&M and the taste is definitely different. Now these are no better than chocolate covered peanuts you buy at the store at a fraction of the price.

They were great. Wish I had ordered two. A little expensive but they tasted great.

Great quality. Fast shipping.

Meh. Had an odd, slightly floral taste when opened, although that disappeared after the first day. Won't reorder.

Amazing flavor. I originally bought this for my mom, because I'm not a big nut fan, but when I tasted one... Let me tell you something. I took my gift back. I kept this for myself! I didn't share it with anyone else. It was highly addicting, but apparently also pretty healthy (minus that DELICIOUS xtra chocolate)... That's my story. And warning.. Don't just buy 1, unless it's only for YOU! Trust me folks. The can is family sized, but you will NOT want to share this... Only downside - Price. But then again, it might be worth it...
