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.
