Sounds like a good enough excuse to me

Boiled peanuts help protect against illness
I haven't had any boiled peanuts lately, but it's definitely one of those uniquely Southern snacks I've acquired a taste for over the years. Holly can't stand them (it's all that Montana blood in her) so I'll try to use this as an excuse the next time I want to pick some up. "I'm just trying to eat healthy."
There's a fine line between good boiled peanuts and bad boiled peanuts though. Nothing's worse than biting into one expecting a squishy little treat, only to get a surprising crunch like you usually get from something like a water chestnut (which I don't like due to the consistency.)
Unfortunately I'm now hungry and these things can sometimes be hard to track down. Gas stations are usually your best bet, so I guess I need to go fill up the car.
