Why did I post this? Because I figured you, like me, would like to see this dude eat peanuts from the 1960s. Sue me. Best line? “Here they come. They smell good!”

Instead of cracking open yet another cell phone, Pea is breaking the seal on a box of circus peanuts that was vacuum packed in the 1960′s. Will the space-age silvery innards have kept the peanuts fresh for more than four decades? Will he actually dare to eat one?
