Peanut Health Status Update
November 2, 2009: The peanut has been the source of much health benefit debate over the years.

Fortunately more and more sources have now realised the health benefits of peanuts and, in particular, the benefits of Hi Oleic peanuts which have been sold through The Peanut Van for some time now.

Health magazines have been including references to peanuts more and more often, including Australian Men's Fitness magazine, (right).

"Nuts have a very high satiety power - meaning they make you feel fuller than many other foods. And even though they're high in kilojoules, those kilojoules seem to be processed differently in the body. Researchers found that men who added 2000 kilojoules' worth of peanuts a day to their diet gained no extra weight at all" - Men's Fitness Magazine issue, Oct/Nov 2009, Page 51

For more information about Hi Oleic peanuts visit the Hi Oleic website

2009 Peanut Festival Success!
PCA team in action September 15, 2009: The September Peanut Festival was another success this year, with The Peanut Van sponsoring the world title Peanut Thresher Pull.

The peanut thresher pull as always consists of one peanut thresher, a rope and a bunch sweaty men competing to pull the thresher a set distance against the clock.

This year, the winning team and winner of the Guinness World Records accredited title was the PCA Social Club. Congratulations guys on a solid effort!

For more information on the Peanut Thresher pull and Peanut Festival, visit the Peanut Festival website

Also be sure to take a look at the winners' website - the Peanut Company of Australia!

Getaway Visits The Peanut Van!
