     In addition to all the new and unique food and beverage concepts that we discover on a regular basis, there are several brands that resonate with many taste panel members. Perhaps they evoke a positive holiday memory or simply a feeling of nostalgia or well-being.

     Our next item, Planters brand Salted Caramel (artificially flavored) Peanuts from Kraft Foods in Northfield, IL, received many positive remarks from the taste panel.  Other new flavors of Planters brand peanuts include Cocoa, Chipotle, and Smoked.

What we liked: 
     "I love the toffee, caramelly flavors of these peanuts.", "These peanuts are very addicting.", "These could be my new all-time favorite peanuts.", "I like how the sweet caramel taste hits your mouth first, followed by the subtle salt aftertaste.", "The salt finish of these peanuts really rounds out the caramel taste.", "Although I'm not usually a big nut fan, I could see myself eating these on a regular basis." and "These are VERY addicting.  It's very hard to stop at just a few of these peanuts."

Wasn't sure how I'd feel about salted carmel peanuts but I'm a "snacker" admittedly and once I tasted it, I was hooked. I had some other nuts out for the guys during the game, but we went through these first! Just great...we bought more after the game, when the guys were GONE!
