I’m from South Carolina and this still happens as a hold over from our grandfathers. This is something a lot of miners and factory men did back in the day in the south. Their hands were filthy from work and this was a quick way to have a snack/ drink without eating coal dust/ grease.

[@jacobishii6121]

Thank you for explanation,makes lots of sense.sounds like stuff we did in military that becomes habit out of nescessity

[@sarcasticcat4982]

For real, like Emmy, is my hero, because she never says no, and always has at least one positive thing to say, even if she doesn't care for it, she never calls it disgusting or makes fun of the item, just gives an honest positive opinion and honestly I wish I could be like her.

I grew up in south Ga. One of my most treasured memories was when I was little, my granddaddy would take me down to the store and buy me a pack of salted peanuts, a banana moon pie and an RC Cola and then we would head over to the local barber shop. He would dump the peanuts in the RC and open my moon pie for me and then I would sit there listening to all those old men telling their delightful stories while eating (and drinking) the BEST snack on planet earth!! I've never tried it with coke but I'm sure it's just as good! And YES......it MUST be in a glass bottle!! Thanks for this video.......and the trip down memory lane💖. You are my FAVORITE KZbinr!

As a teen back in the early 1960's, we bought the chilled bottles of Coke & the small cello-packed Tom's Salted Peanuts, then poured the peanuts directly from the small opening torn into the cello into the bottle (less mess!) Delish! Quit doing this when Coke changed formula!!! I hardly drink Coke anymore without adding Rum & lime because it's just TOO sweet now. ;-)

[@arkyandy9612]

Yes!

[@dt88858]

Ditto - This cola-peanut drink was a big deal during the 1960's for kids in my (low income) neighborhood too. Difference is I was a Chinese kid in a African American neighborhood. I haven't tried it since then. Kids nowadays have boba, jellies and other stuff floating in their drink, but I think cola-peanuts were the original chewy drink innovation.

[@bbednorz319]

Ian Roth Why is that? Cane sugar?

[@myrhev]

@@bbednorz319 To me the small glass bottles of coke tasted a lot stronger. Maybe it was my imagination or maybe it was something to do with the larger amount of glass and smaller amount of coke being colder, I don't really know.

The US has subsidies for corn farmers. The Coca Cola company can buy HFCS cheaper than sugar because the HFCS has been partially funded by the taxpayer.

Rick Pinkerton-I grew up in west Texas too, Lubbock. We went to the dollar movies in New Home,(teeny little town with about 200 people)got RC cola or Dr. Pepper, and little cardboard barrels of peanuts. In the bottom of the barrel would be a coin, from a penny to a 50 cent piece. The coins were NOT wrapped in anything, and we would lick the salt off. That didn't survive for long. We also had suckers called Charms, with money in them. Man, those were culinary treats. Late '60s early '70s

MY GIRL!!!!!!! This is my favorite way to drink coke with peanuts. I've eaten this my whole life. There is nothing better for a quick snack. you just drink a couple of sips and open the bag of nuts and pour them in and its also better to wait for like a minute to let the taste merge. Wonderful.

[@Sailorgirl1207]

We do this and my dad and I also use dr.pepper! Every time we would go to the feed store! (I'm from Texas)

[@Belafonte_79]

[@kehnili9363]

I'm 40 y.o . growing up here in ARIZONA, my dad would add peanuts to his coke. Love your videos My dad passed in Sept 2019 and this video popped up , bringing up a memory of my dad 😇.

Yes it's a southern thing, we always used. R. C. Cola or Royal Crown. Cola, in a pinch you can use Pepsi

[@russellraby8536]

Yes the RC was the soft drink of choice with the peanuts

R.C.... 😢 that was my fave growing up. I found a bottle at the local Bartells last week and talk about someone grinning ear to ear lol

[@trishaannramey2746]

Absolutely RC Cola!!!

@Redheaded Stranger Amen! I don't think of Pepsi being a southern thing at all!! I will go for RC but keep Pepsi up north.

Sunflower seeds and Coke was always my favorite, I was raised in an general store the family owned, and so may farmers from around the ridge would sit and drink this with me

[@christopherlostmyspecsagai3554]

😊Ahhh the memories, I remembered when I was 8 my older cousins in their teens would do this all the time But younger ones were not allowed in case of choking 🥺 However I was old enough at 8, my first taste it was quite pleasant actually, very refreshing I haven’t done this since age 10, I think I shall start doing it again and get my kids aquatinted with old childhood & teen traditions Popping snacks with Coca-Cola lol such good fun, eating cake in my ice-cream etc freezing fruits in yogurt to eat it like lollipops in summer ahhhh

Grew up doing this in VA - salty and sweet in one go!!!

[@KHobbies_cina]

At first I was disgusted by it , but thinking about eating a bowl of peanuts while having a coke isn't that bad. I would rather do the latter instead , makes the peanuts maintain crunchy

[@darkfox2401]

I grew up in VA been here all my life, and i haven't ever heard of this!!!!

[@JoshRafG]

Salt makes the soda turns to gas and at the same time gives a new unique taste. In my city in Indonesia called Medan, some of us drink Sprite with one or 2 pinch of salt. Give it a try!

[@FishyWarrenrp]

RC Cola is what you want

Lol my mom's aunt drinks that!

[@Wendi713]

Warren P What's RC Cola???

[@MarieFury]

Wendis World its a generic brand coke easily found in southern USA

[@ericwest7253]

It's not generic, Royal Crown Cola is it's own brand introduced in 1905. They also did Nehi and Diet Rite as well. RC is now a part of Dr Pepper Co. Nothing better than an RC Cola and a Moon Pie!

[@drenchaquaculture2680]

I don't know that this is specifically a southern thing. I grew up about as close to the Canadian border as you can get and we did this growing up in the 70s.

[@The_Great_Eye]

This combination began showing up in the southern and midwestern regions shortly after Pemberton invented his famous coca-cola back in the 19th century. They didn't know it then but the peanut salt combined with the natural coca leaf extract (cocaine) in the soda gave them a speedy buzz which gave it that POP! People always talked about. #Themoreyouknow

[@drenchaquaculture2680]

@@The_Great_Eye awesome, thanks!

[@quincee3376]

I live in Toronto Canada and am just learning about this . Funny thing is most of my family live in North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Florida and i've never of this. I just saw a meme passed around on Facebook.

[@abbyl9548]

Ever since watching this video I’ve tried this combination out of curiosity, and I’m absolutely hooked. This has seriously become something I crave. For anyone on the fence about trying it, definitely do so! It’s amazing! So worth the try, but now I have an addiction 😂

[@cm2ca]

It's great in grape🍇soda, too! Had coke & peanuts first time as a child in North Alabama.😻

[@LouisianaAstroRambler]

My mom and I use to do this with RC every time we took trips to north MS to visit her family. Idk why, but it was never that big of a deal here in south Louisiana, at least not for the area I'm from. I guess its because everyone prefers to boil their peanuts in crab boil down here lol..

[@michelepace777]

Yep that's how we did it in Mississippi=)

[@mimio008]

The seriousness with which you're describing the taste of this delicious but very sill snack is just really charming. In West Africa some eat crispy salted roasted peanuts with hot sweetened millet porridge. The trick being to eat it all before the peanuts become soggy.

[@jimmyb1043]

I heard about this combo and I was like no way that can be good, then I tried it and it’s amazing

[@CinnamonSugar202]

“I love me some coke”, then sniffs the coke 😹😹😹

[@beckify1902]

My mom grew up in Mexico and had this often! I didn't realize it was a common snack for others. Her family grew up very poor so this inexpensive combo was a real rare treat for them!

[@jackalope2302]

As an Alabama teen in the 90s, I remember a near toothless old hillbilly taught me the joys of peanuts in Coke. I'd drink some of the Coke, pour in a quarter of a packet of peanuts in. When there were no peanuts in the bottle, I'd pour more in. Dr. Pepper works too. Wow that burp! I bet he expelled a pound of carbon dioxide.

[@i-vlog1994]

I have so many questions, such as, how does someone with no teeth eat peanuts. So they just swallow it whole like a pill?

[@jackalope2302]

@@i-vlog1994 hard gums. But seriously, the old man had some teeth. He was missing a lot. Gonna edit the original post to read, near toothless.

[@dr.merlot1532]

I've had this a couple times. It tastes good. Try champagne and peanuts. It tastes better.

[@livingmyteenagedream]

My granny (maternal grandmother) grew up and lived most of her life quite poor, and every time we went to the gas station down from her house for snacks, she’d get this combination. It was her idea of an indulgent treat. God bless her soul, I miss her so much. ❤️ I love to eat this-it’s nostalgic and yummy. We’re from S.C., and many others here love it.

[@spliceoncharlie]

Not sure if it's a southern thing or not. I am older and have lived in a couple southern states and since the 70's have seen peanuts in a coke as a normal common everyday occurrence. It may be more of a rural/farmer kind of snack since it's quick and easy and can be enjoyed while driving a tractor or working outdoors. The peanuts pore into the bottle and there is no mess and your hands are free since the bottle goes into the cup holder. Its a great afternoon snack. If you use the peanut tubes they pore right into the coke no problem. Those packets of peanuts or peanut tubes(usually 2 for one dollar) are always located in the candy snack isle of every single convenient store gas station in America. I am a coast to coast OTR truck driver and this is a fact, I see those peanut tubes everywhere. You are missing the point on the peanuts and coke. The whole purpose of peanuts and coke is nothing more than a salty snack. Many people who like peanuts found they like the flavor combo and would rather have the coke and peanuts than a coke and a candy bar. NEVER in my life have I put the peanuts in a glass. I have no clue why you did that other than its your first time and you are not sure what you are doing. But as with any new food you just have to experiment, so whatever works right. I love that you are willing to experiment and try new things at least once. Thank you for sharing. I love peanuts and can usually get two of those tubes of peanuts in a 20oz coke(not all at once). Drink it down a little at a time and keep adding peanuts as you go and enjoy the coke and all the peanuts.

Burp! I like the taste of coca cola (I'm from Mexico so all the coke I drink is made with pure cane sugar instead of syrup) but I have a weird digestive system which makes it hard for me to burp so whenever I drink carbonated drinks I just end up bloated and with chest pain because of the gas bubbles lol. So i don't really enjoy drinking soda very much 😅
