September 13th, 2025 is National Peanut Day

George Washington Carver came up with over 300 uses for peanuts, that protein rich legume that also is high in antioxidants. CDK features many recipes that contain peanuts or peanut oil, even peanut butter.
Do you suppose that the guy who wrote "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" was a peanut farmer? "Buy me some peanuts and Cracker Jack. . ." Even Cracker Jack has peanuts! Hmm, very clever marketing, peanut farmer/song writer!
