We found the world's original heirloom peanut. WILD JUNGLE PEANUTS!
The sale of these exotic and outstanding peanuts directly help indigenous farmers in South America protect their native rainforests from loggers, the petroleum industry, the cattle industry, and mono-crop farming.
One of our close associates works in Ecuador, sourcing and importing some really awesome raw food items for us. Recently, a friend of his invited him to visit a native local group of indigenous people. They are called the Shuar Indians.
The only reason our associate even had the chance to go to their village was because his friend did something unique. He participated in a sacred Shuar ritual. Since so few people are this bold - he earned their respect.
After much convincing, our friend finally decided to visit their village. When he got there, he was introduced to many of the elders, shamans (medicine men) and other villagers. He also found out that they were a generous, welcoming people, with rich traditions. Plus, they had an amazing understanding of nature.
As he was getting ready to leave, some of the villagers brought him a basket filled with something TRULY AMAZING.
HE COULDN'T BELIEVE HIS EYES.
What he saw in the basket were some the most beautiful nuts he'd ever seen in his life. He didn't even know that they were peanuts at the time. They had perfectly golden-brown skin with smooth reddish stripes. Even their shape was beautiful.
AND THEN HE TASTED THEM!
His first bite of these raw, Wild Jungle Peanuts was mind-blowing. It wasn't easy for him to describe. They seemed to have a rich, "heirloom" peanut flavor and aroma. The texture was smooth and buttery - they nearly melted in his mouth. They may have been the best food he'd ever tasted.
"How much of these do you actually have?!" he asked. They really didn't know, but the peanuts seemed to be growing in lots of places. "Would you like to sell them? If so, I'll take 1,000 lbs. right away!" They were a little surprised, but they pooled their resources managed to harvest them, wash them and dry them in the sun. And they were happy to place their "pride and joy" in good hands.
*It contains over 40% of the beautifying oleic acid. This makes it truly "heart healthy."
*It contains a whopping 14% protein! That's more than hemp or flax seeds. (So the next time someone asks you where do you get your protein, you can say "Wild Jungle Peanuts! Haven't you tried them?")
*It also has all 8 essential amino acids, plus some like methionine that are difficult to find in other foods.
But this is just the nutrition - it's even more fun discovering what you can do with them. For example:
*You can make (finally!) truly raw peanut butter and jelly! Don't you miss those days? Simply process the peanuts in your blender, juicer or food processor and put them on a raw Essene bread or flax cracker. Then add your own homemade fresh fruit jelly (dried figs work great!) and you've got that familiar flavor you grew up with - only now it's 100 times healthier!
*You can mix them with Cacao to make the best raw candies and treats ever!
*You can add them to sauces, dressings, smoothies and more for an exotic, nutty flavor!
*Best of all, our Wild Jungle Peanuts are incredibly stable and taste wonderful straight out of the bag. You'll actually find it's hard to put them down.
WAIT - THERE'S A CATCH
One thing we need to mention again is that the land of the Shuar Indians is in jeopardy, due to the oil potential beneath the surface of the jungle.
Their group of approximately 4,300 Shuar people has title to roughly two million acres of primary forest. The Shuar are one of an increasing number of Amazonian indigenous groups who are organizing against oil exploration activities. The Shuar have demanded that no oil development occur on their land, although ARCO has the exploration rights to two areas in their territory that encompass 2.5 million acres. The Shuar are putting pressure on ARCO and the Ecuadorian government to recognize their rights.
But it's hard for a small group to go up against such large and powerful companies. And this unfortunately means we don't know how long we'll be able to get these wonderful Wild Jungle Peanuts!
But the good thing is that if you buy them today, you help the Shuar to fight back. Every little bit helps, and each purchase contributes to the Shuar's sustainability. Also, the more their foods are recognized and appreciated by the US market, the more help and support they'll get from the Ecuador government, as well as non-profit groups.
So if you are at all interested in trying the world's cleanest, purest, best-tasting and ORIGINAL ANCIENT PEANUT - we suggest you order right away. Remember, you're only days away from making healthy raw peanut butter and jelly treats, amazing peanut-chocolate candies and so much more. THIS IS YOUR CHANCE TO HELP!
