3. The Peanut Statute
In one small town in New York, it’s illegal to eat peanuts, but only if you’re walking backwards on a sidewalk. Honestly, though, even that is okay, provided there’s not a concert going on. It’s a very, very specific rule.

4. Illegal and Impossible
The people in New York must be abnormally bouyant. One town’s rules state that it’s illegal to eat when you’re swimming in the ocean. Not only would it be difficult to swim and chew at the same time, it’s tough to imagine something that would taste awesome with tepid sea water all over it.
