With Baby Nut, Planters Solves the Problem of Their Deceased Mascot Mr. Peanut
- bediger4000 7y agoStraight PR hit. Planters "killed" Mr Peanut, the (fake) problem was probably pre-planned, as was the solution. This article is essentially an ad for Planters. I guess that Planters even helped CNN write the copy. "Mr. Peanut had died saving actors Wesley Snipes and Matt Walsh from the aftermath of a crash in the company's ionic Nutmobile." Oh, FFS. "Iconic" nutmobile? There's only 1 iconic food-resembling car, and that's Oscar Meyer's weinermobile. 100% certain this is Planters ad copy.
