BTDT. Except, PEPSI? Really, PEPSI?? Peanuts belong in Coke, no other.  Wish I could go back in time, find the chubby 14 year old punk that thought lighting up was the way to be cool, would kick his azz up between his shoulders. But now it's Woke a Cola.

I recall going to the livestock sale barn in the late 1950s, with my grandfather. He taught me the peanuts in Pepsi thing.

Was just as good with Double Cola as Coke, too. Wife still does the peanuts in soda pop thing every so often but she always has to have Dr. Pepper.

As a kid I liked doing it with Dr.Pepper.
Grandmother used to say "You want peanuts in your coffee?" in response to someone asking/looking for special treatment.

Attention-getting gimmick - just like the cigarette.

Used to do that on my 15 minute lunch whistle down at Johns Manville. They pushed a commissary cart around.
5cents for a co-cola
5cents for the pnuts
I wasn’t made of money, it was a luxury but I worked hard. It was my only vice.

Usually keep a bag or two of peanuts in the truck (never know when you're gonna want a snack moseying down the road), but bag of peanuts an coke at the country store, drink one drink out of the coke, pour in the bag of peanuts and head down the road!
NO coke or coke products in my truck or house now, unfortunately few stores have RCs and I don't like Pepsi.

After school. head to the gas station hang out, light up anther Lucky Strike, put a dime in the pop machine, buy a nickel bag of Planters salted peanuts, rip open the bag, and pour the peanuts in. Salty fizzy treat. I haven't done that in a long time! Used to do that 60 years ago. Will do it occasionally if I end up with a bag of peanuts and a Pepsi.

I think it was in the early 80's when Dr Pepper came out with a diet version. Someone gave me a bottle to try. That stuff was awful. I drank it in the morning and still had the rank taste in my mouth in the late afternoon. I don't know what kind of fake sweetener they used. It didn't stay on the market long. Nobody tried it more than once. The stuff they sell now eventually replaced it.

We had a penny peanut machine at the tire shop I worked at in the late 60's and early 70's. It was a daily treat to have peanuts in my Pepsi.

For a while I sked those spaceage True cigarettes'. Low tar, and nicotine sure. Packed so loose they burned like a firecracker fuse, and I pinched the air holes so I could get some real smoke! You had to light with a match for the first drag
