The National Peanut Federation’s site alleges that the practice of adding peanuts to Coke originated in the 1920s. This happened because workers with dirty hands didn’t want to handle their peanuts, so they would just dump it in their Coke. After this, the sweet and salty sensation became a tradition in the south, but definitely isn’t talked about enough. No one really knows who came up with the idea, but they’re everyone’s hero.

However, the same doesn’t go for Diet Coke, and apparently it tastes pretty nasty to those who have been brave enough to try it. Because Diet Coke has artificial sweetener in it already, it just doesn’t pair the same way that it does with regular Coke.
Many people have also taken to social media to document trying this food craze.
It looks like the whole bag must be in there!Some people are getting fancy with it. Got a nice-looking glass and everything. Looks like man’s best friend wants to try this southern treat, too! It’s truly just irresistible.It’s such a wild concept, even for those who live in the south! News reporters from 11Alive dropped the news on the southern craze and were absolutely dumbfounded at this little treat. “I’ve lived in the south my whole life, this was not a thing,” one of the reporters stated. When one of the reporters tried it, he simply said, “It tastes like a coke.”
