I'm a huge fan of all nuts including peanuts.
Can't say I have a special preference for them specifically over other kinds, but they do taste differently. Meaning they have a specific taste recognizable as peanuts.
The texture is more creamy than anything other than cashews, and taste is a kind od sweet-salty-roasty combination that just has something special.
Don't know why anyone said they taste the same as "other nuts", no nuts taste the same. Pecans and walnuts are most similar (to each other) but there's still a difference.
I can't think of anything with a similar taste that you could safely try. Maybe smelling peanut butter would give you an idea if it's not too dangerous...
