U.S. peanut inventories are so high that farmers “may not have enough warehouse space” to store the bounty. Everyone must eat more peanuts—for America!

In an interview with Glamour UK last year, Kristin Cavallari answered the following question: “What is your superfood of choice?” Her response was sort of funny.

“Men and women who eat at least 10 grams of nuts or peanuts per day have a lower risk of dying from several major causes of death than people who don’t consume nuts or peanuts... but peanut butter is not associated with lower mortality.” The agony and the ecstasy of living the nut life.

Mama, please. Hear my pleas. Feed your babies peanuts.

Korea Air Lines' infamous "nut rage" executive was sentenced to one year in prison on Thursday after being found guilty of obstructing aviation safety. In December, Heather Cho—the company's former vice president in charge of in-flight service—ordered a crew chief off a Seoul-bound flight because she and others in the first class cabin had been served macadamia nuts in a bag, not a dish.

A Korean Air Lines executive resigned this week and issued a public apology for a completely bonkers incident where she kicked a crew chief off a flight at JFK because she was served macadamia nuts in a bag, not a dish. The flight was delayed 20 minutes while officials decided whether to proceed without the ousted employee.

Pretty much everyone likes almonds because they taste good and they're pretty healthy for your body. If someone wants to talk trash about almonds just to look cool? Get a life!!

Uh oh, there is a recall of a variety of upscale peanut, almond, and other nut butters from Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, and elsewhere because of salmonella risk. Peanuts are good though.

If you get your nuts in a vise, you'll be lucky to have them in a sling afterwards. In fact, you'll be lucky to stay alive. It's physiology!

They fight weight gain, belly fat, diabetes, and cholesterol—almonds may be the world's single healthiest snack, despite being just the fourth-best nut.

Nuts: the demure yet dynamic dynamos at nature's table. Might it be true, friends, that eating nuts will actually cause you to not die? Yes. It is absolutely true. Science celebrates The Nut!

Yes, macadamia nuts are poisonous to your dog, and your dog will die from eating them. But is it not more cruel to deny your dog macadamia nuts?

"Don't blame me," most people say. "I'm just a squirrel trying to get a nut." If you were a squirrel trying to get a nut, why not go for the Cadillac of nuts? The macadamia nut. It comes from Hawai'i.

There are plenty of nuts you can purchase if you want to. But imagine that all nuts were the same price. What nut would you buy then? If the person in question is me, one of my top two choices would be the cashew.

When I tell people how much I like pecans, some people are surprised. "Hey, I think this or that other nut is tastier than a pecan," they'll say. Well, okay, fine. That's your right.

I don't know this for sure, but I'd guess that almonds are one of the most popular nuts in America. And why not? They are good. In fact, I'd say almonds are the fourth-best nut you'll find anywhere.

I like pistachio nuts. In fact, I would say that pistachios are the fifth best variety of nut in the whole wide world.

Let us stipulate, as gentlemen and gentlewomen, that food can generally be divided into two separate and distinct categories: Sweet foods, and Salty (or Savory) foods. Accepting momentarily this fundamental bifurcation, we turn our attention, as we do so often, to nuts. Nuts. Are they a salty food, or a sweet food? The answer is not so simple.

Good morning, America. Do you know why this is a special time to be an American? Because this is an amazing year for peanuts!
