National Peanut Board Launches "Energy to Burn" Sweepstakes

ATLANTA, Sept. 27, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- If you feel the need to get re-energized, America's peanut farmers have a solution. Today marks the beginning of the "Energy to Burn" sweepstakes, giving peanut fans across the nation a chance to win a vacation and hundreds of other prizes. The program, focused on all things energy-related, is sponsored by the National Peanut Board and co-presented by Hampton Farms, Planters and Skippy.

"When it comes to getting through an early morning or long day, everyone wins with peanuts. At seven grams per serving, peanuts have more energy-boosting protein than any nut," said Bob Parker, president and CEO of the National Peanut Board. "Through the Energy to Burn sweepstakes we're able to celebrate the power of peanuts and help re-energize Americans with a fun vacation."

Participants can also enter to win instant prizes like peanut and peanut butter packs, iPods and gift cards upon registration. The sweepstakes concludes Nov. 30, 2013.

Whether it's morning, noon or night, peanuts are a source of 24-7 energy. A serving of peanuts has more than 30 essential vitamins and nutrients and can offer a much-needed energy boost.
