On this fateful day I purchased, as is my fashion about once a month, a bag of circus peanuts. I brought them home and had a few, but as I was lighting some incense and chewing on one of my unnaturally colored banana things I had a truly great idea
Fire makes incense good, fire makes marshmallows good, circus peanuts are sort of like both! Fire must make circus peanuts good. With a lighter and a significant amount of patience I warmed the peanut, careful not to actually set it aflame before it had been softened throughout. Next I gently touched the flame to it and watched as the sugar burned and bubbled with a gentle crackling sound. As the flame began to scorch my fingers, I blew it out.
I tasted my perfectly toasted peanut. IT WAS AWESOME!!! I cannot tell you how good this was, even compared to a normal CP. I don’t have the patience to do this often, but I can assure you that more peanuts from this bag will meet that fate. Hoo boy.
P.S.- Circus Peanuts are doubly amazingly tasty when you are under the influence of a certain green, smokable, federally frowned-upon plant. Wow, I say.
Uh-oh, I shouldn’t tell my mom about this. She loves roasting marshmallows and eating CPs. Not at the same time, mind you. Now she might end up making a s’more out of a circus peanut. yuck. :vomiting smilie:
Yumm you should try nuking them in the microwave. They get all big and puffy (more volume of circus peanut for the $). Of course you might wanna wait a minute or so to let it cool down. I cannot recall the number of times I burnt the sheeit out of my tounge and mouth because I couldn’t wait and just scarfed down piping hot circus peanuts.
I should clarify- I was not under the influence of that unnamed (well, I think someone named it) plant at the time that I tried this out, I was just making the note.
A friend and I stopped at the grocery store and got some candy on the way to my house. After blazing it up we went through a big bag of circus peanuts in like 10 minutes, all the way through commenting on how much better they were than in a normal state of mind.
I don’t know what this says about me. Or what it says about Tiki, but as I was reading the OP, I wondered about micro-zapping a Circus Peanut. I do it to Peeps every year. It’s a taste explosion. (OK, it’s not an explosion, but the Peep gets really big and gooshy.)
So, as I was reading I was going to ask “What happens if your micro-zap you super-delicious Circus Peanut, Lucki Chaarms?” And there was the answer from Tiki. Creepy.

Bah!!! Be quiet your sounding like my philosophy professor. I’ve already made a skeleton model out of your statement and concluded what kind of argument your were using. My head hurts and this sucks I’m leaving…
