These gourmet Hope & Harvest peanuts sold by Cheese & Crackers are known for their large size and distinctive crunch. There are several different types, or cultivars, of peanuts. These are Virginia peanuts, and they are huge and crunchy. They come in three flavors: plain, Cajun seasoning, and salt and vinegar.

I tried the plain salted peanuts, and they are remarkable. Consisently bigger than the peanuts I usually pick up, these gourmet peanuts have a loud bite. You’re not going to be able to eat these quietly. For $9.99, you can buy them at Cheese & Crackers in a can sealed with a metal pull tab, keeping them fresh until you’re ready to enjoy them.
