Haven't had these in many years, but what a fun treat. There's no way they actually qualify as food though.

Ingredients: Sugar, Corn Syrup, Gelatin, Pectin, Artificial Flavor, Color Added (Includes Yellow 6, Yellow 5, Red 40).

I have always wanted to try these I usually get cotton candy or shaved ice at the circus or zoo (sometimes these are at fairs too)

maybe this thread is a sign

Never tried frosted animal crackers, but the regular ones are incredibly bland and depressing, at least the ones I've had. Not even worthy of being considered a snack. But yes definitely treat yourself to circus peanuts if you get a chance. They're not even that great though, mostly just funny.

The banana flavored ones are good

Circus peanuts are too a food. The nutrution label of any given item only tells half the story - there's actually a soul food label on these things that can only be revealed by uttering the special circus peanut incantation under the light of a full moon. And anyway, like the package says, they're fat free, how bad could they really be?

God I love these, I always try and get them when I go to a Bass Pro Shop with friends or cousins! I also see them at local gas stations here and there too, they've always tasted like bananas to me, but some people have said otherwise.
