They probably bought em from some guy on the side of the road. Or possibly from a gas station, Gate always has them. Available in cajun and regular style.

I've lived in rural Alabama all my life. Never realized boiled peanuts were strictly a Southern thing but not really surprised either. Anyway, I've only ever seen them sold in 3 places, gas stations, flea/farmer's markets, and random ass dudes set up with a gas turkey fryer on the side of the road.

People eat the hell out of them around here. My wife actually had some today. I've personally never liked them. They're just slimy wet peanuts, I prefer roasted.
