Farmer grows heart-shaped peanuts for Valentine's Day

Uh. Yeap, that definitely look like a heart-shaped peanut to us.

However, we highly doubt that the tiny heart-shaped peanut was grown specifically for Valentine's Day, as the farmer claims. It seems to us that, like finding Jesus, Mary, and Elvis on toast, the heart-shape is just a natural, one-time anomaly that can't be reproduced by the farmer. We'd be interested to see the heart-shaped peanut's siblings from the same plant.

With all the fancy schmancy genetic engineering they can do nowadays, scientists could probably design a plant that grows heart-shaped nuts, but not for this Valentine's Day.

Tip of the Day

Butterscotch sauce is a rich and buttery treat that makes a great seasonal dessert topper in place of chocolate or whipped cream.
