Mr. Peanut, the beloved mascot of Planters Peanuts is dead, at the age of 104. Only 24 years older than Food Processing, the laugh-inducing legume died while saving the lives of Wesley Snipes and Matt Walsh.
“It’s with heavy hearts that we confirm Mr. Peanut has passed away at 104 years old,” Samantha Hess, Planters Brand Manager at Kraft Heinz, said in a statement. “He will be remembered as the legume who always brought people together for nutty adventures and a good time. We encourage fans to tune in to Mr. Peanut’s funeral during the third quarter of the Super Bowl to celebrate his life.”
Rest in Peace indeed.
