On today's date in 1965, the characters of the popular cartoon comic strip, Peanuts, were on the cover of Time magazine. Peanuts was arguably the most popular of comic strips, and created solely by cartoonist Charles M. Schulz. The year before the Peanuts gang graced the cover of the magazine, Schulz created one of television's most beloved specials, A Charlie Brown Christmas. In the Peanuts comic strip, when Charlie Brown's sister Sally was born, the characters celebrated by enjoying a round of chocolate cigars. Revisit Charlie, Peppermint Patti, and friends by enjoying a box of delicious chocolate cigars today. Oh and if anybody remembers Charlie Brown's favorite food, please tell me what it is, I've been going crazy trying to figure it out...

Also, in a semi-related note: Peanuts, the edible legume, are the most common food allergy in children and are found in many shapes and forms as a groundnut, eaten plain or roasted, in salted and unsalted varieties, as peanut butter and peanut oil.
