Peanuts are also called “Ground Nuts” and desired not only as a nutritious snack but for the oil released from the nut, not only for cooking but for its nutritional values. Check out AOCS (American Oilseed Chemists Society).

As a child, my brother and I had the pleasure of making peanut brittle candy. It was simple; syrup and peanuts equal brittle candy. Thanks to reading, I learned that peanuts are legumes a while ago.

Shannon 33 is right, it's reason can't be vegetarian, all protein sources are mainly legumes to which I'm allergic, it's not just a choice...
Player #30601169
WickedNorthener60, ha-ha! Where I come from (Ontario), fluff means bits of wool or other soft fibers so, much as I love peanut butter and have it with many different things, that doesn't sound very enticing! I suspect you're referring to whipped marshmallow or something like that?
Ol'Jimmyboy
