Boild peanuts.

There used to be an elderly black man who had a stand on Peachtree St. in Atlanta. His sign read “bolied peanuts”.
That’s the way my family still refer to them. lol
That man was sure sitting on some expensive real estate. I hope he owned it and ever had to sell another peanut after he closed his stand. A highrise went up where he used to be, just north of Lenox Road at Peachtree.

I have memories of seeing signs like that during some of my childhood in the South. Does anyone still eat boild peanuts?
