Pop & Sol Roasted Elote Peanuts
What it is
These are roasted peanuts coated in a savory elote-inspired seasoning. The seasoning typically includes flavors reminiscent of Mexican street corn, such as chili powder, lime, and a hint of cheese or mayonnaise. The peanuts themselves are roasted to a crisp texture, providing a satisfying crunch with every bite. This snack offers a unique flavor profile that combines the nuttiness of peanuts with the zesty and spicy notes of elote.
