Peanuts suddenly in Wal-mart WBS

They usually don't put them in, at least in the five or so bags I've bought they never had any.
Anyways I'm red/green colorblind and I suspect one of my jars has a contaminated peanut. Help a brother out. I'm sorry if the image quality isn't amazing, I took them on an 8mpx digital camera.
Possibly contaminated peanut
I'm just wondering, does that peanut in the center look green or grey?
Thanks guys, this is my first year growing and my first solo grow.

Is this before or after aiming for the fresh air smell?

I also buy walmart brand WBS and mine always has peanuts. I wash my grains until the water runs clear and only remove the large peanut deposits on top of my rinsing grains. On average each of my quart jars prob has 2-3 peanuts and they have never caused detrimental delay let alone contaminated separately lol. I PC for 90 minutes after a 24 hours soak + light ~15 min simmer until grains have swelled. The peanuts don't really do much throughout the soak/simmer/PC but they do colonize with the rest of the grains (slightly slower IME).

Germinated mold dies well before 2.5 hours. Germinated mold is likely dead within 20 minutes at 15 psi, possibly sooner. We PC for long periods to kill bacterial endospores, which are much harder to kill and take higher temps and longer times than molds.

I love the price on the Walmart WBS but I hate picking out all the peanuts, they always sink to the bottom too. Every jar I had that had left over peanuts in it, would contaminate it even says corn-free but I'm finding at least one handful in every bag!

every bag of WBS i've seen has either got a clear part where you can see what's inside or it says it right on the bag.

The best cheap WBS I've been able to find is the flock and feast stuff from albertson's. It's mostly milo and just has a little bit of millet. It's like 6 bucks for a 20lb bag, but oats from the feed store really are the way to go for good cheap grain spawn. Next time I go to the feed store I'm going to try a bag of milo just for fun, but I imagine I'll still prefer the oats so I'll still buy some as well.

Thanks for correcting government grant boy. Was worried as I scrolled down that it wouldn't happen.

Thanks guys, the peanuts are looking pretty gnarly now. Like dust has been sprinkled on them. Gonna throw it out.
For those curious I did PC for 90 minutes at 15 psi, its not a big deal I have six other jars that seem to be doing okay.
I think I had my temperature too high in my incubation chamber. Was combing through RR's notes and he mentioned that the insides of jars are several degrees higher than what your probe will read. I probably got them a few degrees too hot on several occasions. I took the top off of my chamber and introduced more filtered air exchange to the small room. Too much condensation in a couple of my jars.

I have also removed the incubator, thanks.
I have one more question guys : Does the jar on the right in the first picture have cobweb mold or weak mycelium? The other pictures are close ups.
