[1] When planted, peanuts are grains. [2] But the plant isn't considered, or eaten as, a grain. [3] The plant produces a flower, which produces a fruit through pollination. The fruit becomes a legume, which is why the peanut's in the legume family ka Fabaceae. The legume has 1-4 seeds, and goes underground to mature as a peanut. [4] The peanut's so called, because the edible seeds of many legumes are ka peas, and because its uses fall more into line with nuts.
