Can germinated peanuts be eaten?

Peanuts with buds can be eaten. Many people think that germinated peanuts contain aflatoxin and carcinogens and cannot be eaten. In fact, scientifically speaking, germinated peanuts are edible and do not contain aflatoxin; Only moldy peanuts contain aflatoxin. Moldy peanuts cannot be eaten. They have carcinogens. It is difficult to distinguish germinated peanuts from moldy peanuts, so choose carefully: this is because both germinated peanuts and moldy peanuts need to appear when the water content is high. In other words, peanuts can germinate, which means that some peanuts may be moldy, and moldy peanuts will produce aflatoxin, a carcinogen. Therefore, it is best to choose carefully when eating germinated peanuts.
