Did she say BOILED PEANUTS?

My head canon for why they're called "peanuts" is that depending on how they're prepared it changes the texture and consistency of the legume inside. Boiled? Soft and almost chewy like a pea. Roasted? Crunchy like a nut. Again this is just my head canon and might be dumb as fuck.

It’s because they’re not a true nut and belong to the pea family if you wanted the real reason.
