Trying to eat healthier, (edit for me this means lower sugar, less carbs, more protein) and it seems like everything that is sweet, sweet-ish, or a snack but also sold as healthy has peanuts or is peanuts. I'm not allergic to it, but I am tired of peanut butter cookies, peanuts in a snack bar, peanuts on their own, peanuts in a snack mix.

This is just not relatable at all for me. Is this an American thing?

Absolutely. Kind of surprising considering how common peanut allergies are, but they're in all kinds of things. And almost every package of mixed nuts is like 60% peanuts.

I have no idea, Canadian here and I can eat peanuts with every meal and still love them. When working on a asphalt crew I always had a bag in my pocket. I feel sorry for the allergic person who runs their rubber tire roller, steam roller, plate packer... Oh well, some multimillionare assholes problem now lol
