PEANUTS AND CHANA
Dear Diary… Today, I Discovered Two Legends in One Bowl
Written by: Chini from Charliee
Dear Diary,
Today, I had promised myself I would eat clean.
Keyword: promised.
But the universe clearly had other plans — and they came in two crunchy, delicious forms:
Charliee’s Roasted Magic Masala Peanuts and Hing Jeera Chana.
It all started when I sat down with a chilled bottle of nimbu soda and that classic 4 PM craving — the one no fruit or oats can fix. My hand wandered into the snack drawer, and suddenly — two bright Charliee packs were looking at me like, “Aaj toh hum hi chalenge.”
I started with the peanuts.
One bite, and I was hooked.
Spicy. Roasted. Bursting with bold masala flavours.
Not that sticky, artificial taste you sometimes get — but real, Indian street-style magic. Each bite had the perfect crunch — the kind that demands a sip of something fizzy after.
I flipped the pack to check — and sure enough, Charliee’s Roasted Magic Masala Peanuts are made without frying, using premium-quality peanuts and a signature spice blend crafted in-house.
And yes, you can buy roasted masala peanuts online in India straight from their website. Fresh, crunchy, and delivered to your doorstep like a true blessing.
Just when I thought I was done snacking, I opened the Hing Jeera Chana.
And Diary... oh wow.
This one was something else.
Subtle hing. Gentle jeera. Not overpowering, just a warm, earthy, slightly spicy hug for the soul. It reminded me of the small steel dabbas maa used to pack when we travelled on trains — full of roasted chana to keep us full without feeling heavy.
Charliee’s Hing Jeera Chana is high in protein, roasted to golden perfection, and made without any frying or preservatives.
It’s clean, simple, and so satisfying.
And yes, you can buy hing jeera chana online from their site too — which is honestly dangerous because now I know how easily I can restock.
So, two important things happened today:
- I completely broke my clean-eating plan.
- I had zero regrets.
In fact, these two might just be my new favourite snack combo — bold yet balanced, nostalgic yet guilt-free.
Who knew healthy roasted snacks could taste like a walk through memory lane with a side of spice?
Anyway Diary, I’m off to hide the packets from myself.
(And maybe order a few more. Let’s be honest.)
Love,
Chini
