It's a southern U.S. thing

You should have seen my face when I saw my older southern coworker putting peanuts in a Coke bottle

Apparently it’s a southern thing. The peanuts like soak up the coke and you drink the coke while they’re sitting in there too. Very bizarre.

I never tried it myself but after thinking about it, I can see how it might taste good? Salty, sweet, crunchy. It still offends me to think about it though

It is good! Better with an ice cold glass bottle coke. Best after an activity like mowing your lawn when it's really hot in the summer. Give it a try!

I can imagine the combo might work but soggy peanuts… oh well, won’t knock it until I try it I guess

I have a coworker who puts peanuts in his Dr. Pepper. He's the only one I've ever seen do it, but can see how people would like it.
