NATIONAL PEANUT DAY
ANNUALLY CELEBRATED ON SEPTEMBER 13, IT IS NATIONAL PEANUT DAY.
“Peanuts, which grow underground, are rich in nutrients, providing over 30 essential nutrients and phytonutrients. Peanuts are a good source of niacin, folate, fiber, vitamin E, magnesium and phosphorus. They also are naturally free of trans-fats and sodium, and contain about 25% protein (a higher proportion than in any true nut).”
