About the Holiday

National Nut Day celebrates these healthy and nutritious snacks that contain protein, vitamins, minerals, fiber and healthy fat. The most common types of nuts include almonds, cashews, hazelnuts, pecans, pine nuts, pistachios, and walnuts. Peanuts are actually not nuts but rather legumes (i.e. in the bean family).
