Taking a trip down memory lane while simultaneously snacking on the world’s best boiled peanuts—what could be better? We have a roadside snack shop in Georgia that will offer up visitors a dose of nostalgia, but also become the go-to country store for the best road trip snacks.
Fred’s Famous Peanuts has become a road trip-must for all who drive through Helen, Georgia.
