      Animal protein works better as a binder in most cases. It keeps the seasoning from falling off as fast.

        And yet all other flavored peanuts and salted peanuts combined seem to indicate that you can get by without it.

        It’s just absurd.

          I mean, it can be absurd and also why they do it. Plantars don’t add extra oil to theirs, so they need more binder. They’re not doing it for no reason at all or to specifically spite those who don’t eat animal products.
