What You Should Know

Found in the snacks or natural foods aisle (or a big pantry tub at home), this 44 oz jar is the kind of everyday staple you reach for on road trips, at parties, or to stash at your desk. It feels wholesome and slightly nostalgic — warm, crunchy roasted peanuts with a straightforward sea-salt finish. The short ingredient list and roasting process give a crunchy texture and savory flavor but point to simple industrial processing (roasted + added oil/salt), not the complex formulations typical of ultra‑processed foods.
