Miracle Whip

A creamy, tangy condiment that dances on the tongue with a sweet and savory harmony. Miracle Whip is a beloved spread that offers a luscious alternative to traditional mayonnaise.

Crushed Peanuts

Crushed peanuts are roasted peanuts that have been broken down into smaller pieces, offering a delightful textural contrast in a variety of dishes. Originating from South America, peanuts have become a staple in many cuisines worldwide, particularly in Asian, African, and American cooking. They boast a rich, nutty flavor with a subtle sweetness and a satisfying crunch. The texture is firm yet yields slightly when bitten into, making them an excellent addition to both sweet and savory dishes. In cooking, crushed peanuts add depth and a pleasant mouthfeel to sauces, salads, and desserts. They also tend to absorb surrounding flavors while retaining their structural integrity, enhancing the overall experience of a dish.
