Beer Nuts Original Peanuts

Beer nuts are peanuts that have been coated in a sweet and salty glaze. The coating typically includes sugar, salt, and sometimes corn syrup and spices. They are then roasted or baked until the coating is crisp.

Beer nuts are primarily used as a snack food, often sold in mixes with other nuts and pretzels. The sweet and salty flavor profile makes them appealing as a standalone snack or as part of a bar mix.

Peanuts are a common food allergen. The coating ingredients, such as sugar and salt, are generally recognized as safe by the FDA when consumed in moderation. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated various food additives used in coatings, but specific evaluations for 'beer nuts' as a product are not typically made. Excessive intake of salty and sugary snacks can contribute to health concerns.
