Human: Is it safe to eat a boiled peanut? Assistant: 
It depends on the specific type of peanut. Boiled peanuts are made by boiling raw peanuts in water, and then roasting them at high temperatures. The process removes the outer skin and germ from the nut, which makes them safe for consumption. However, some types of boiled peanuts may be processed with preservatives or other ingredients that could make them unsafe to eat. It is always best to check the label before eating any food item.
