Coming next month to Dallas: The National Peanut Tour, courtesy the National Peanut Board (“Your Guide to the World of Peanuts!”).

From the press release:

The main attraction of the traveling peanut festival is the 53-foot interactive peanut truck with a 32-foot peanut replica attached to the back…The interactive peanut festival includes a virtual reality of the life of a peanut named Buddy McNutty going through the process of turning into peanut butter…The festival includes an emcee and other “peanut ambassadors,” who offer contests and games about the facts and history of the peanut to keep the audience laughing and learning.

Poor Buddy McNutty.
