Have you heard about the trend involving salted peanuts and Coca-cola?
One of the viral food trends that we found got us thinking. How can this food combination work? Who started it, and is really as good as they say it is?

Let us first find out where this all started.
We found out that this is actually a famous delicacy from the south, and if you are curious if it’s worth trying, then the answer is yes!

Based on a post from The National Peanut Federation’s site, this food and drink combination originated in the early 1920s.
It is said that some workers didn’t have water readily available for them to wash their hands, so it was impossible for them to eat their peanut snacks.

Then, for convenience, these workers started putting their peanuts in their bottle of coke and ate it this way.

They were surprised by the explosion of flavors!
Word got out, and people have started doing this food combination, which has since been passed on to generations.

As usual, thanks to social media, this now-viral food trend had reached so many people, and all of them swear that this food combo is amazing!

MY DAUGHTER SWITCHED SEATS MID-FLIGHT—AND I FOUND OUT WHY TOO LATE It was supposed to be a quiet flight. Just me and my daughter, Reyna, heading to Phoenix to see my sister. I’d packed snacks, downloaded a few cartoons on the iPad, and even brought her unicorn plushie that she won’t sleep without. We boarded early, settled into our seats—me by the window, Reyna in the middle. I had just started zoning out, watching the tarmac, when I realized she was no longer beside me.

She grabbed the man’s arm with both hands and leaned in like she was guarding him. “She knows me,” she insisted. “You’re Grandpa Mike.” My stomach dropped. Not because I recognized the guy—he was a stranger to me—but because of the name. Mike. That’s my dad’s name. The dad who left when I was seven. The one Reyna’s never met. The one I never talk about. I tried to laugh it off again, but something about the way Reyna kept staring at him made my chest tighten. The man looked just as shaken as I felt. Then he said something I didn’t expect.⬇️ Continue reading in the first comment 👇
