can these be boiled and eaten by humans?

It says right in the description, "Must be boiled or roasted before human consumption. Safe for human consumption". I'm not sure where these other people that answered got their information from but they're incorrect. I got these mainly to make Cajun boiled peanuts for myself, some will go to the blue jays and squirrels in their feeder as well.

Are these roasted? Squirrels will suffer organ failure from eating peanuts if the nuts are not roasted..

I’m a licensed squirrel rehabber. They are safe for “wild squirrels” to enjoy. I buy them for my “wilds”, but I also top off all of my peanut feeders (found on Amazon) with in the shell “Pecans, & in the shell “Walnuts”. I also purchase those items (from Amazon) You can pick up a 5 lb bag of Pecans for 25.99 and 5 1/2 lb bag of Walnuts for 29.99. Plus these Peanuts. You can also feed them veggies, Butternut Squash, spaghetti squash, carrots, leafy greens, limit the fruit (high in sugar) then in the fall don’t toss out your pumpkin’s that you carved (put them in your backyard) squirrels love them. They love “Black Oil Sunflower Seeds” (never salted Sunflower Seeds) *your yard will look like mine in early fall with Sunflower’s popping up* Just don’t offer salted or roasted nuts. These have ingredients that can be harmful to them and their bodies and systems cannot process. Any nuts offered to squirrels should be in their natural state.

Are these peanuts considered 'green"? I'm looking for raw peanuts that are dry but not 'roasted' with no moisture feel to them.

These are not green peanuts. They are raw uncooked peanuts. They will need to be roasted or baked for human consumption.

What is the difference in these peanuts and the raw peanuts you can purchase in a grocery store

I am no peanut expert, but I don't think there is a difference. The ones I buy are raw peanuts for feeding the squirrels. For me, the only difference is that I buy them in 25lb bags, have them delivered to my door, and I think it is cheaper than buying them in small quantities in a grocery store.

Part of a daily regime now

Always a hit with my wildlife! Been buying for about a year now and will only buy these here. Price is well worth what us received! Now if only they would sell mixed nuts for a variety for animals, they would have the same loyal customers buy those as well. 😊

Always fresh peanuts

I buy the 25# bag of these peanuts for the squirrels in my backyard. There is always at least one peeking in my back door or waiting in the tree for me to bring out peanuts in the mornings. I have blue jays that call to me until I throw a few out for them. These are raw and unsalted which is what is recommended for feeding wildlife. They also always are fresh and after comparing prices of other similar brands, these seem to be the best value.

Good peanuts

Good large peanuts and my ground squirrels and fox squirrels don't complain. Could be a little cheaper.
