WA-CHAA! Spicy Sichuan Peanuts are crunchy, protein-rich peanuts coated in authentic Sichuan mala spices—numbing peppercorns, toasted chili flakes, and avocado oil—for a savory, travel-ready snack.

These peanuts bring a bold, regionally inspired flavor profile to a convenient on-the-go package. Made from Shandong-grown peanuts and seasoned with Sichuan peppercorns and chili flakes, the snack balances heat and a characteristic tingling sensation known as mala. Each serving delivers whole-food protein and uses avocado oil for a clean roast and crisp texture. The Original Heat level is designed to be lively without overwhelming the peanut’s natural richness.

How do these peanuts taste and feel in the mouth?
