Can You Eat A Raw Peanut?
Yes, you can eat a raw peanut, but it may not be as enjoyable as a roasted peanut. Raw peanuts have a slightly bitter taste and are harder to digest than roasted peanuts because they contain high amounts of phytic acid. However, if you do eat raw peanuts, it is recommended to soak them in water for at least four hours to reduce their phytic acid content and improve their digestibility.
