I usually just shove a thick of foam rubber between rattly windows on ex's... seems like a lot of different types do it.

Well, hummmmm, excellent question GD. I never tried to eat a packing peanut but imagine a fellow could eat them if he was hungry enough. I don't recall seeing that as a brand name either come to think it. I can tell you, they go everywhere when you do encounter them in a box and stick to your hands when you attempt to pick them up all over the floor. My dog seems to.think they are pretty good fun to have around and will crap them out straight away in the same condition they entered. The green ones look far more edible than the white ones but don't be fooled by that because my dog eats both and never showed a favorite of one over the other....and he is a picky eater...I'll be back in touch if I can figure out more on this mystical blob of expanding foam.....in the meantime try not eat too many....:

Just having alittle fun GD. Glad to see your good nature. Americans seem to give everything a unique name vs just calling it what it really is....everyone refers to them as packing Peanuts due to them resembling a peanut in shape and size...

pafarmer: I figured you were. Have you ever tried Macadamia nuts ? No Kidding now. They are a Queensland Nut from here only, if you like eating nuts these are the Rolls-Royce of Nuts.Peanuts,Cashew.or any other type are 2nd-3rd in comparrision to Macadamias. If you send me an address, via private message site I will send you over a small packet, no charge to try. Guaranteed ..you will love them. Your call.

I have eaten them many times GD. They are the best by far. Wife loves them as well and uses them in her baking allot around the Holidays.
