Virginia Diner Honey Roasted Peanuts - Sweet & Salty Gourmet Non-GMO, Preservative Free Gifts from Virginia Since 1929-18 Oz Can

A bit pricey for peanuts. But I gift them often because everyone loves them. Very fresh and delicious.

great price, tastes awesome, nice and fresh

Received item and it was not eatable because it was all stuck together in one big chunk!!! I used sharp pick and knife to try to break apart with very little results.

Delicious

I must first preface this review with the fact that I am a texture eater above flavor, and when it comes to sweets a specific texture appeals to my palate. While this brand appeals to my subjective desires for a hard, candy like, texture, it may not appeal to the broader audience for peanut brittle. If you are expecting a buttery, melt in your mouth, experience with each bite, this may not be the "brittle for you". However, if you are the type to enjoy your peanut brittle as a hard candy like texture that becomes chewy - warning, may stick to your teeth - this is your product. When it comes to peanut brittle, the star of the show is peanuts. Yet, in this case, that seems to be the supporting role. As the size of the can clearly suggests, the brittle is broken down into pieces. As I dived into the glory that is peanut brittle, I noticed that some pieces are rich with peanut while other pieces were completely devoid of peanuts, and of course there were pieces that fall in the "in between". Overall, by ratio of the foregoing I feel the title describes the product in a few words - at least in my experience. Of course not all people are texture eaters, and in that case taste is the focus and the product tastes pretty good whether you eat a piece with peanuts, or not. However, this product is more of a hard candy bar than peanut brittle. Brittle suggests it breaks easily in the mouth but this one takes a bit of force, which is why I feel it compares to hard candy. Yet, if a hard candy taste of peanut, sugar and syrup with a hint of butterscotch (at least how my palate interprets the taste) is how you like your "peanut brittle", you will not be disappointed. The final attribute for all well produced peanut brittle products is how much of the product is in bits (like bars) versus pieces (as in shattered). Unfortunately, it is hard to say. The first time I had purchased the product, there were more bits than pieces. The second time it was the opposite. Obviously, this outcome is partially reliant upon how gently the product is handled during delivery. In conclusion, it depends upon where you fall as a lover of peanut brittle. Are you in it for the brittle, or for the peanuts? If you are in for the brittle, and like your brittle in a hard candy texture, this may be your product. If your idea of the perfect peanut brittle is laden with "peanuts", and or expect each bite to melt in your mouth with little effort when it comes to chewing, you should seek your peanut brittle elsewhere.

Not what I expected! Whitley is so much better. Would not order this fro Amazon again

This nut brand has been our go- to choice for gifts for many years. Very glad they now quickly ship through Amazon. Hard to beat the taste of Va Diner nuts.

Excellent Peanut Brittle, however you might ship it differently as it came in lots of broken small pieces because of the way it was shipped.
