I remember when I was little my mom would always set out a big bubbled glass bowl just full of circus peanuts. Always after my piano lesson. I would rush through the chords, rush through chopsticks and boogie woogie, pushing my little fingers in hopes that the circus peanuts wouldn’t disappear before I was done.

And what a reward they were. I remember popping one into my mouth and just smiling, my piano teacher laughing. Now whenever I eat one I can feel my old living room, I can see the overflowing, orange bowl. Whenever I eat one I always smile. ~ Mark from Pennsylvania

Average Rating    public   I bought the assorted circus peanuts. I only needed 4 white ones, but had to buy a 1.5# bag. The white ones had other colors melted onto them, I really had to scrape some of them quite a bit to get the other colors off.   Reviewed by:  Biancca from Lodi, California. on 3/31/2012 Circus Peanuts   These aren't the same as when I was young. I'm wondering if they have fructuse in them since there is no ingredient label on them. They do not taste the same as when I bought them years ago. Awful taste. We've only eaten a handful & the bag was thrown out.   Reviewed by:  Paul from Tennessee. on 1/28/2012 Circus Peanuts   I bought these for my wife and she really enjoyed them. The colors are a nice touch.   Reviewed by:  JMJ from Mass.. on 6/2/2011
