Peanuts In A Pint?


Recommended Posts

Dido's thread reminded me of this. But, I don't want to mess his one up with it.

Donkeys years ago now, I briefly knew another young lad and we got together for a pint. I ordered what ever I was on, back then. He asked for a pint of ... It was either Lager or Cider. I don't remember. I just know that it was yellow, so one or the other.

And a packet of peanuts. These were regular, 'Salted' peanuts, because Dry Roasted simply hadn't been invented back then. So far, so what?

Then, without hesitation, he ripped open the peanuts and calmly dumped the fukking lot into his pint!!! :o No sly smirking. No glancing around for a reaction. It was as natural as putting salt on his chips.

I'm standing there, absolutely fukking aghast, obviously. I say, " W T F is That about?!? " As he calmly sips his polluted pint. Again, as if explaining why he'd just lit a fag, he said; " Oh. The salt ...." And I'm Fukked if I can remember! But, this guy was absolutely serious. He knew a reason for doing it and had evidently done it for ever. Not an issue.

Have we a Chemist amongst the Massive? Can Anyone please explain what, 'beneficial' effect Salt may have on either lager or cider? It's on my bucket list to crack that one.

Take a freshly poured glass of beer and drop a salted peanut into the glass. Watch as the weight of the peanut causes it to sink to the bottom of the glass. But keep watching! After 10 to 20 seconds, the peanut miraculously rises to the surface again.
 

I can honestly say sid I have never seen that done I have seen a few things go in drinks ? but never a peanut
