Kirkland Signature Super Extra-Large Peanuts Roasted & Salted

Peanuts are a good source of protein and healthy fats, particularly monounsaturated fats. They contain essential nutrients like magnesium, vitamin E, and niacin. The roasting process enhances flavor but should be monitored to avoid excessive heat that can degrade nutrients.

Peanut oil is a plant-based oil with a high smoke point, making it suitable for frying. It contains monounsaturated fats but also has a significant amount of omega-6 fatty acids. The refining process can remove some beneficial compounds, but it also reduces allergens.

Salt is used to enhance flavor but can contribute to high sodium intake. Excessive sodium consumption is linked to hypertension and cardiovascular issues. While necessary in small amounts, moderation is key to avoid health risks.
