National Peanut Day, celebrated on September 13, is a fun day to honor peanuts! Peanuts are not actually nuts; they are legumes like beans and lentils. They are a popular snack and can be found in tasty treats like peanut butter, peanut cookies, and more. On this day, people might eat their favorite peanut snacks, learn about how peanuts grow, or discover how they help farmers and the environment. Peanuts have lots of protein and are important in many countries' cultures, making this day a special celebration of this small but mighty food.
