P Whattles? P-Nuttles! I make fun of it, but it’s really a pretty cool name for a candy.
Sometimes I forget about the blessed simplicity of some classic candies.
P-Nuttles are one of those. Turning over the simple orange foil package I looked at the ingredients: peanuts, sugar, butter, salt. That’s it!
The uneven looking little morsels are simply panned peanuts coated with a crunchy toffee. Sweet with a solid salty hit, they’re dependably tasty. No worries if you come across a nut that’s lost its toffee coat, that means more crunchy shell at the bottom of the package.
These are great to put on ice cream or of course a good summertime sweet that won’t melt.
After my bad peanut experience yesterday, I was very happy with these. Not a bad nut in the bag, and considering how many that was, those are good odds. The only problem I have with them is that I have no idea where to buy them. I’m going to have to keep my eyes open for sightings in the wild, but at least I know I can get them online. I wouldn’t be surprised to find them at 99 Cent stores, as I’ve often found Cup-O-Gold there.
i always find them in the nuts aisle (also known as the chips aisle) at ralphs; also they are right next to the beers and such go figure - yum!
Sounds delicious. I’ll watch for them.
Sunny - in the nut aisle! I don’t know why I didn’t look there.
Dave - let me know where you spot them.
The only place Ive ever found these is in various vending machines. Heh. I never thought of looking in the nut isle. Sounds like a good place to start though.
They’re always in vending machines..LOL I don’t know why but they are.
I first learned of these in school, where we had to sell them to raise money for something or other.
I haven’t seen them since.
you can find them in gas stations and sometimes u can buy the generic brand things that have them
I found them at Stater Bros, and the LA county fair, too.
I find P-nuttles at Big Lots! I go every week now and buy peanuts, sunflower kernels and their amazing spicy mix!!! These are the best and totally addictive. Thank you P-nuttles.
P Nuttles would be good if they weren’t loaded with salt! My 44 oz jar has some product that tastes like eating rock salt for a water softner.
Mmmmm P-Nuttles are the best penut snack around! ive only ever seen them in some gas stations and vending machines. My favorite P-Nuttles are the spicy mix. they’re sweet and spicy at the same time :D
Found my P Nuttles at Basha’s, but am looking for smokey P Nuttles, and mixed with chocolate
I bought a bag and since I have dentures I couldnt enjoy them but my 3yr old and husband only had about a handfull and both complained of stomach aches afterwards and at around the same time. Idk what that’s all about, but I started looking up recall info and found this blog. They are really tasty.. I just cant figure out why my baby and husband both feel ill after the only thing they both consumed was p nuttles butter toffee peanuts.
