Who knew?! We've been calling them nuts all this time, but it looks like we were wrong! Thanks for clearing that up, now we can all call them by their rightful name - legumes.

I was just eating a bowl of peanuts yesterday. Literally was just thinking this before it clicked and was like "Wait, are peanuts considered beans then?"
