Dr. George Washington Carver is referred to as the “peanut wizard” and father of the peanut industry. (It is debatable whether Carver or Dr. Ambrose Straub is the official inventor of peanut butter.) 

Georgia is the number one peanut-producing state. Texas is number two.

It takes almost 850 peanuts to make an 18-oz. jar of peanut butter!

The average American child will eat 1,500 peanut butter sandwiches by the time he or she graduates from high school.

Alexander. Muhammed Ali
