Lately I've had this crazy thing for peanuts. It all started about a week before Super Bowl XXXVIII...
My brother had brought home this 5 pound bag of roasted peanuts that were still in their shells. He said I could have some, and so I did. They were so awesome for some reason. Whenever I'd stop to have some I'd stand there and compulsively eat peanuts for five to ten minutes at a time. That went on for about a week -- until we ran out.
Now last week peanuts were on this huge sale at Publix, so I decided to go ahead and grab some... a lot of them.
I have been eating them like crazy ever since. I've almost finished off this 16 oz glass jar of Dry Roasted in like half a week. The craziest thing about it is it is like messing with my system. I think it is all the peanut oil or something. Who knows.
It's most likely due to peanuts being super-high in omega-6, which throws your omega-6/omega-3 ratios (very impt to the brain, btw) way out of wack.
