Peanut is an unincorporated community and coal town in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, United States.
Peanut was, because of its name, chosen by the Peanut Advisory Board for a celebration of peanut butter[1] and, on November 6, 1993, a 40feet long peanut butter and jelly sandwich – claimed to be the world's largest – was created in Peanut.[2] [3]
