Peanuts are items in the Donkey Kong franchise, as well as items in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

A Peanut (Diddy Kong's ammo) in Donkey Kong 64.

In Donkey Kong 64, Peanuts (pictured on the left) are used as ammunition for Diddy Kong's Peanut Popguns, and can be found scattered around the world in boxes. In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, a shelled peanut will sometimes appear when Diddy Kong (or Kirby after copying Diddy's move) uses his Peanut Popgun. This will recover a small amount of health if eaten. The peanut shells fired from the Peanut Popguns can be used as an item, by catching then throwing them.

In The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! live-action segment "Two Bums from Brooklyn", Tommy Lasagna offers Mario and Luigi with a job of throwing peanuts at Brooklyn Dodgers baseball games, due to the fact that their skills are not good enough to make his team. He throws each of them a bag of peanuts, which they proceed to eat rather than throw.
