  • Mr. Peanut was been reborn as Baby Nut during the 2020 Super Bowl.

  • I'm not okay.


Hello, and apologies in advance for what you're about to see. This year's Super Bowl commercials have truly been a mixed bag—and on top of a HARROWING ad featuring Jason Momoa peeling off his hair, we were introduced to Baby Nut. Whomst is Baby Nut, you ask? Apparently he's the reincarnated version of Mr. Peanut, only a baby, and it's honestly horrifying.

I have many questions about Baby Nut, including but not limited to: Did two peanuts have sex in order to make him? Is he evil? and most importantly, Will he kill me and/or curse me if I make eye contact with him through the TV?

And so far the only answers Planters is giving me is in Baby Nut's Twitter bio, which simply says "The official Twitter of Baby Nut. Reborn and bringing everyone together."

Cool! Anyway, the internet is pretty divided by Baby Nut's sudden, and dare I say nutty (HAHAHAH), emergence into the world. On the one hand, we have people who are delighted by his cute Baby Nut eyes and simply want to make memes:

On the other hand, there are those of us who are understandably concerned that Baby Nut has come to murder us all in our sleep:

Ugh, help. Anyway, here's the commercial if you are Pro Baby Nut, aka Pro Insanity:
