Great oroduct

This 5lbs bag of raw Spanish Peanuts came in a vacuum sealed Mylar bag. I gave this product 4 out of 5 stars because the Mylar bag had an 3-inch slit by the label which comprised the quality and freshness of the product.
This is only an assumption but because the slit looked like it was cut by something sharp, I’m thinking that it may have happened when Amazon received this product into their inventory and this bag was probably top and center where they used a blade to cut the box open and inadvertently, cut the product’s Mylar bag! That is just my guess!
When this package was delivered, the product itself was placed in an Amazon shipping box with no other packing materials. The shipping box was intact and had no visible damage. When I opened the box upon receiving it, I did inspect it but I did not see the cut slit because it was right up against the product label. I had put the raw peanuts to the side for several weeks prior to the Thanksgiving holiday and intended to make candied peanuts. Then last week, I got all my ingredients out to start the recipe and when I stood the bag on its end to open the bag with a scissor at the top, that is when I noticed the 3-inch cut slit in the Mylar bag because as the bag sagged a little the opening became apparent and you can see the peanuts inside, ready to fall out. I was so disappointed that I had not noticed it when I first received it because now it was beyond the return window. I think Amazon should do a better job in its Quality Control when shipping food products to ensure the product has not been compromised before it goes out their doors. Yet, I will give them Kudos because it bothered me so much what had happened, I felt compelled to call Amazon Customer Service to at least report what had happened. I had no expectation when ai made the call but to my surprise, after a short hold, the very nice Amazon CS rep came back on the line and stated that he had processed a credit for the product amount and offered an apology for the bad experience! You see, sometimes good things can happen when you least expect them to! Great job Amazon and thank you!

promp delivery, top quality freshness

These are a great product! I roast and smoke these in the Traeger. I put just a little avocado oil on them in a roasting dish and put them a in at 300 for about an 1/2 hour, maybe a little more. Them I drop them back in a bowl and put a little maple syrup, honey would work too, just enough to make them sticky. (It doesn’t take much) Then I season them to taste! Black pepper or Garlic blend, what ever you are brave enough to try. Don’t over do it! Put them back in the Traeger set at smoke, usually 6 hours.
These peanuts are great! Make sure they are still Vacuum Sealed when you get them! If you look at the photo – The bag on the left is good! The bag on the right? Something went wrong here! Amazon should have never fulfilled with what was obviously a defective product said they would refund me but never did! I reached out to the seller and they got right back to me. A replacement was sent right away! Happy with that! Will order again!

Update: Still love the peanuts and maybe they’ll get your order right. Ordered 2 – 5 lb. bags of red skins and got 2 bags of 2.5 lb. of shelled peanuts! So I paid for 10 lb. shelled and received 5 lb. in shell. That is quite the bait and switch! They put a UPC label over the original label. Did they think I wouldn’t notice? Asked for a refund/return and Amazon says they’ll make it right. They said that before and nothing happened so we’ll see. We may have another update in a few days. Last time the seller did make it right so I thought it was a one off . Thought it was safe to order because we love the product! Not so sure I would order now!
