Corn Nuts
 

I have a love / hate relation ship with these things. I received a free box of 12 bags of Loaded Taco corn nuts to try from Amazon to review. I love the crunch, and I kind of sort of get where I crave it and have to eat a few now and then throughout the day. The flavor isn't all there, sort of a burst at first then as you eat them it goes away. I remember my dad eating them when I was young.

Anyhow, who else loves or hates these things?

Go to your room and lock the door
Use your hand cuz that's what it's for.

Bust a Nut!

Bust a Nut!

Open up a bag and bust a nut!

EDIT: Eh i was close.

or a tooth

Love them. been a while since I had them

Bustin' makes me feel good

Original and BBQ... great for long car trips...

All of this.

Hard to find original flavor. I don't like the fake ass seasoning kind.

Afraid I'd bust a tooth these days eating those things.

And to answer your question OP, yes i do enjoy them and still eat them to this day.

I just hate the way they make your breath (The whole ****ing room, really) smell while you eat them.

ain't that the truth. Not as bad as Indian or Cozy Inn, but you definitely want some gum or mints on hand.

Only the original flavor is good IMO

Do you also get to write about all the corn nuts in your poop?

Damn Baby Ruth bar.

They are delicious but it's like playing Russian Roulette with your teeth.

Yep used to love' em as a kid but now they'd wreck my teeth

I tried Corn Nuts one time decades ago, and they were so hard that I was frightened for my teeth and stopped pretty quickly. I don't know how anyone eats those things.

These things were invented by Dentists. Teeth breakers.

BBQ. But that's not really the question:

I just throw in a mouth full of gravel when I get the temptation to have some corn nuts

Things are ****ing gross

that's easy

No, that is NOT one of the options, heathen...

Chili Lime corn nuts are just aces.

Not always easy to find, but they're one of those things I buy anytime I stumble onto them in a gas station.

well, then crunchy.

You're the one who brought Cheetos into a Corn Nuts thread, scumbag.

One of the few good things to come from Oakland, CA:
Albert Holloway, inventor of Corn Nuts, 1936.

Yep

I've never had the chili lime corn nuts brand but a little store near me sold their packaged version which I'm positive was just Tajín but they were like crack. Smaller, less processed

Probably similar to these

Interesting. Didn't take you as a Tajin guy. +2 Cool points.

You can sprinkle Tajin on just about anything and make it good.

I use it quite a bit, mostly on fruit

Tajin on pineapple or a mango slice is about as good as it gets

LMAO

Ya'll speakin' my language.

I make a killer Cucumber Lime Margarita. I line the rim with Lime Juice and Tajin. Its great everything.

Try it on corn on the cob and thank me later

My uncle used to call corn nuts fart cans

I put it on the rim of vodka/sodas I make with pineapple vodka and soda water in the summer. Perfect little pairing for pool drinking.

Shit, this ain't rookie ball...

With a little cotija cheese, some cilantro/lime sour cream and the tajin sprinkled on top - it's pretty much the only way to make Elote.

Had some Elote just this weekend actually.

The Ranch flavor is #1. Damn those are good

I used to keep these suckers around before I reached the tooth break danger age

Also similar to corn nuts are Japones. Japanese peanuts but in Mexico they're coated in chili lime. These are straight fire

Hate.

Ah yeah, child hood go-to's. (The Mango pops)

Shiiiiit, i still eat those LMAO

As a dentist, my bank account likes them.

I don't eat them myself.

Candy shouldn't hurt. That goes for hot stuff and for toothbreaking stuff.

I remember actually hearing this on the radio in L.A. a long time ago. going WTF? Then going HECK YEAH!

This guy knows.

I’m old and would have to soak them in beer or something. Wetnuts are about all I could eat. :(

Like the original flavor only; remember when they first came out and came with a packet of unbaked seeds that you could plant. They grew however no ears of corn from them.

I've always hated corn nuts and I'll tell you why.

I had a friend in high school who ate those things daily and his breath was always rancid after eating them. I don't like the idea of smelling bad in any way.

Corn nuts.

Those were Heather Chandler's last words. RIP.

Gettem while they are hot at the Shawnee Hy Vee

Grind 'em up for hog nut breading

Not allowed to be eaten in cars owned by Bugeater.
100% True story

No nuts to be eaten in Bugeater's car. Got it.

I remember those as a kid. Hard as a damn rock.

Japones are the TITS.

I always bring them back with me when we vacation down there. Love that crunchy shell.

Thanks for growing up, working hard, and not being poor

BBQ.

Same

I once brought back a backpack of 2lb bags with the intention of giving them to my team at work

I think I ultimately gave one away after hoarding the rest for myself over like 4 months

yup, we always bribe the snack guy for tons of extra and bring them home.

This

If you enjoy peanuts these are sorta different:

Eat 'em shell and all!

Not quite as soft as a boiled peanut as these are deep fried.

Holy shit boiled peanuts are disgusting
