FAQS


A: Hot Monkey Nuts are a spicy peanut snack available in 9 awesome flavors.  They are different than regular nuts because these peanuts will deliver a taste explosion you've only been dreaming of.

A: YES, ALL of our products contain PEANUTS and PEANUT OIL

A: In Britain, peanuts in the shell are called monkey nuts. We picked the name 'Hot Monkey Nuts' BEFORE knowing this fact, so it's kinda coincidental :-P

A: Peanuts are a very healthy snack. Peanuts are rich in monounsaturated fats, the type of fat that is emphasized in the heart-healthy Mediterranean diet. Peanuts are good sources of vitamin E, niacin, folate, protein and manganese. In addition, peanuts provide resveratrol, the phenolic antioxidant also found in red grapes and red wine that is thought to be responsible for the French paradox: the fact that in France, people consume a diet that is not low in fat, but have a lower risk of cardiovascular disease compared to the U.S.

A: Well, it's literally fiery-haired (HOT)…(MONKEY) with a pea(NUT) nose.  We thought it completely embodies our company's tone-slightly silly, but super cool.  There IS meaning to the 6 flames in the monkey's hair.  We are a family of 6, so one flame per person.  BTW...his name is George Douglas Monkey, but that story is for another time!
