Yep, it’s been around. Remember Barbara Mandrell’s song, “I was country when country wasn’t cool”. There’s a line in the song about slipping peanuts in my coke.

@Sooner   Instead, it was Moon Pie and RC in my youth.  We did the Coke ( or Pepsi) and peanuts combo.  While I am showing my age, we also put crushed potato chips on baloney sandwiches.  

 

It has been many years.  


No doubt it was:

This was really popular back in the 50s and 60s. I remember trying it and thought it was wonderful....seems like the peanuts made the Coke "fizz" quite a bit and also gave the Coke a salty/peanut taste. It was good stuff back then....what goes around comes around!

We did that in the early 60's thinking it would get us high, when that didn't happen we realized the older kids were just messing with us. LOL
