I've been eating some peanuts recently and my friend told me that it's really fatty. Is this true?
I eat the one where it's like unsalted and in original shell.
Thanks

Yeah, they are really are pretty fat, but they have higher amounts of trans-fatty acids, aka the 'good fat'.

Unsaturated fat is better than saturated fat. Unsaturated chains have 'room' where they can chemically react and be broken down, where a saturated alkane does not.

Peanuts also have quite a bit of protein for their relative size. The problem with peanuts is you can put away so many of them without really noticing.

Fvcking a, not everyone is a natural born citizen who speaks/writes perfect English, give him a fvcking break. His profile says:

I'm sure 99.9% of you wouldn't even come close to getting your grammer right in another language. Quit being a couple of dicks.

I'm a firm believer of "Do or do not; there is no try." He needs to get it right or pay the price.

Anyway, yes, peanuts are quite fatty.

It's grammar, not grammer and an "active voice" is preferred over your passive voice.

They're fatty, yes. But it's the good fat, not cow guts. :p

Eat them, especially if they're the kind in the shell. The kind that are cooked in oil aren't going to be as good for you.

Nuts are good for you. Instead of that burger, get some trail mix. Seriously..

Almonds, sunflower seeds, pistachios, cashews, pecans, walnuts, hazelnuts.. They're all an excellent source of protein and good-fat.

Of course, if you wolf down the trail mix.. and still go to Mcdonalds 3 times a day, it isn't really going to help much.

Assuming that you're not using the term "damn" as part of the proper noun that consists of the name of the gentleman to which you refer, you'll need a comma in there. The sentance should read "Damn, Jerboy rubbed off on you people."

He's also lacking a comma between the words "grammar" and "too".

Your period should be inside your quotations marks.

WRONG! Trans-fatty acids are the worst type of fats you can get! Omega 3 and other oils, especially those from fish, are 'good' fats. Flaxseed oil, etc., are examples of good fats. Trans-fatty acids, such as those contained in margarine and in a lot of processed foods, are the truly evil fats in the world. Avoid them with your life!

Peanuts have no significant transfatty concentration.

No, actually, the last sentence is correctly typed. The word "too" is being brought to the attention of the reader. It is not part of a quotation.

Are you certain? Btw, it's "quotation" (singular), not "quotations" (plural).

No I am not sure. I was simply parroting your anal retentiveness. I just can't believe we have grammar nazis with nothing better to do.
