Peanut-lovers rejoice each March. This month celebrates one of America’s favorite and versatile foods. Roasted in the shell for a ballpark snack, ground into peanut butter or tossed in a salad or stir-fry, peanuts find their way into everything from breakfast to dessert. National Peanut Month had its beginnings as National Peanut Week in 1941. It was expanded into a monthlong celebration in 1974.
