Red skin peanuts

Red skin peanuts

Red skin peanuts are highly favored in North America, enjoyed in their plain, roasted, or spread forms. Contrary to common belief, the peanut is not a nut but a legume, akin to beans. They are also an excellent source of vegetable protein, though these proteins are somewhat less complete than those found in animal products.

Afritibi Market brings you peanuts directly from West Cameroon, a region known for its ancient volcanic soils that imbue crops with an exceptional taste. Indeed, village peanuts from this area have a naturally slightly sweet flavor, making it hard to stop eating them until the pot is empty. Treat yourself to this delightful snack; you deserve it!

Peanut Allergy

Peanuts are listed by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency as a major allergen. Peanut allergies can be severe, with even a small amount capable of triggering anaphylactic shock. Individuals with peanut allergies should eliminate from their diet any product containing peanuts or those labeled with a possibility of containing them. They should also avoid peanut oil, as it may contain protein particles responsible for the allergy. Furthermore, it’s considered prudent to avoid consuming nuts in general (both shelled and oil seeds), due to their high allergenic potential and the fact that they are often processed and distributed by companies specializing in peanuts.
