Peanuts is a weather condition under which a game of blaseball may be played.

Origin

Peanuts was first observed as a weather type on Season 3, Day 1. During a game with Peanuts weather, players have a chance to "swallow a stray peanut", which can cause either a yummy or an allergic reaction. The Game Log will show this event both when it happens and at the conclusion of a game in which a reaction happens.

Fans speculate that participants consuming peanut items during their favorite team's game will increase the likeliness of a player in that game experiencing an allergic or yummy reaction, but no conclusive evidence has been found.

Reactions

Swallowing a stray peanut can cause either a yummy or an allergic reaction which, respectively, induces an immediate positive or negative change in the players' star ratings.

Reaction Occurrences

Currently documented Peanut reactions follow:

WARNING: FORBIDDEN KNOWLEDGE
This page contains FORBIDDEN KNOWLEDGE: information about the game of Blaseball that has not been revealed by Blaseball itself. This knowledge may diminish the mysteriousness of the game. Proceed at your own discretion.

Peanut Allergies

Players may be allergic to peanuts based on their "Peanut Allergy" attribute. Whether or not a player is allergic governs whether they will have a yummy or allergic reaction to swallowing a peanut. Yummy and allergic reactions induce a corresponding positive or negative change in all of the player's numerical attributes and make the player grow a finger.

A yummy reaction increases a player's main stat (batting or pitching) by +20%. This is typically displayed as adding one star, though because the star rating display is rounding their stats, this can also look like it added one-half or one-and-a-half stars.
