It is traditional to add salt to an ice cold longneck in Missouri, but this is a new one on me.

Anyone else heard of it or tried it?

Try it. You will not be disappointed

 

[AyeCantSeeYou]

Yes! Grew up in NW FL and it was a normal thing for people to add salted peanuts to coke. I was the black sheep - didn't care for it.

 

[DukeU]

Haven't done it in a long time, but when I was young loved it.

Southerners' All-Time Favorite Snack Calls For a Bag of Peanuts and Bottle of Coca-Cola

Why we'll never stop loving this salty, sweet duo. Peanuts in Coca-Cola is a union predestined by the stars—the sweetness of the Coca-Cola perfectly complimenting the saltiness of the peanuts. A fizzy sip followed by a satisfying crunch. What's not to love about this tradition? Here's how it...

I've had salt and limes with Meskin beers when I lived in Texas.

Just don't mix Mentos and soda...

 

[DukeU]

Although I did like them with Pepsi better.

 

[PeanutGallery]

I haven't tried it, but my dad has mentioned that he and his friends had it. Either Coke or Ne-Hi sodas.

It is gross. I lived in the south for a long time and I never understood why anyone likes soggy peanuts.

 

[Freedomisneverfree]

I just tried it. Did nothing for me. I like my peanuts dry and my coke ice cold. I should add I am not supposed to drink coke. (phosphorus),

Yes, salted peanuts in Coke is a thing. So is RC Cola and a Moon Pie.

Peanuts in Coke is better.

That was how we did it. Neither was all that great, but the Pepsi version was much much better. IMHO.

 

[Freedomisneverfree]

After I tried it and did not like wet peanuts, I took some dry peanuts, chewed those and took a swig of coke but not a lot happened that I would repeat it. I will keep it the way it was

Pepsi vs Coke
Ford vs Chevy

Two classic and endearing USA debates.

RC is better than Coke or Pepsi IMO.

All three have their merits. Seems RC is a bit less common nationwide though.

Mt Dew for me.

Used to be ordinary practice in South Carolina.

Hmmm ...
That sort of brings in another league.
