Depends on what you are frying Addie. Potatoes are fairly flavorless and will pick up a slight peanutty flavor. With stronger flavors, like fried chicken, I don't think you would notice.

Thanks. I think I will pick up a bottle next time I go shopping. Will let you know. Fortunately, I am not allergic to nuts of any kind. Just the two legged ones.
Question??? Does peanut oil leave a peanut taste on the product being fried? I have never bought it, but have considered it.
Gee, and I thought you liked me... xoxoxoxoxo
I deep fry with peanut oil and have never found it to add any flavor to what I am cooking.
What is wrong with Chinese food? (Other than maybe you don't like it.)
I'm not a big peanut oil user but I've never noticed any peanut taste or aroma.
Deep fried, pan fried and stir fried are all drastically different concepts. My average stir fry uses only 1-2 T. of oil. Furthermore Asian stir fries often feature huge amounts of vegetables, far more than in Western diets.
I think you should avoid deep fried foods (US-Southern, US-fast food) and pan fried foods (US-Southern, and ... um). You can't equate stir fries with deep fries... Well you can, that's your freedom of opinion.
I presume you avoid all oils when cooking foods.
I'm enthusiastic about Asian foods and about Mediterranean cooking because I think they're both more healthful than our usual American fare.
Ninety-nine percent of Chinese food is fried. And more women than men who are brought to the ER for gall bladder attacks recently ate Chinese food. No thanks, don't care to go through that event again. I developed sepsis in my gall bladder and blood system. Don't have to tell me twice.
I would say there is some truth to this, but as for 99% being fried, that is 90% wrong.
I am sorry for your heath issues.
Whenever I have ordered Chincese food from an open kitchen, I see them dump in the oil, then the food into a wok. I stopped ordering egg rolls years ago because of all the grease in the roll part. I also stopped ordering the fried rice for the same reason. Can you name me one dish that is placed in an oven for finishing? That isn't cooked in a wok?
A number of years back when the food police were out in full force, they named Chinese food as one of the worst foods for grease and being the unhealthiest for us. Like many others, I thought all those veggies would be good for you. But not when their only pan in the kitchen is a wok of different sizes.
