Question: what is the difference between salted peanuts and dry roasted peanuts?
Answer: If you opt for salted nuts, dry-roasted nuts tend to contain more sodium, with 190 milligrams, than oil-roasted nuts, with 90 milligrams. Since dry-roasted nuts contain less flavor-adding fat, manufacturers may feel a need to use more salt to add flavor to the nuts and make them more appealing to consumers.
