Life, in a nutshell, is peanuts-Apic

Peanuts

Just joking.

How can life be so insignificant?

On the contrary, peanuts give you a longer life significant enough!

Surprised?

Researchers have found that there is a reduced risk of death from coronary heart disease.

Just consume a handful of peanuts…that is enough.

This makes peanuts 🥜 powerful!

  • They contain more than 75% of heart-healthy unsaturated fat
  • Peanuts have fat, protein and fibre
  • Have more proteins than any other nut
  • Rich in fibre, magnesium, folate, vitamin E
  • Contain cancer-preventing antioxidants, flavonoids and other bio-actives
  • Believe it or not- by eating peanuts you live longer

Roasted or boiled Peanuts 🥜 -what is your favourite?

Both taste good.

Unlike their boiled counterparts, eating roasted peanuts is a delight.

Are you aware of the Indian English word ‘Time Pass’?

This term is not found in English Dictionary.

It’s an expression to kill time.

It means “I am passing the time” (to pass the time)

Why I am talking about this?

My friend, the humble peanut is known in Indian Trains as ‘time pass peanuts’ as if instead of getting bored one can utilize the available time by eating peanuts!

The vendor selling them doesn’t yell peanuts, instead he yells ‘time pass’!

Not just this, Indian Railways have come out with ‘Train-time pass’ app. This app gives live train status of Indian railways. I understand that it is not active these days, probably withdrawn, I am not sure.
