Peanuts
Think you know how peanuts are grown? Think again! Unlike other nuts, like pecans or walnuts, peanuts do not grow on trees. Instead, the peanut plant flowers aboveground, but the actual peanuts grow below ground. A machine then digs them up once the growing process is finished and the soil is the right consistency. This entire process takes about four to five months!
