2. Peanuts from Argentina with Stu Macdonald from Manilife

Everyone loves a bit of peanut butter, but I imagine very few of us know the story behind the alluring spread that is a vice to so many. In episode two we take ourselves off to Argentina where Stu Macdonald, founder of Manilife, talks us through how they source their peanuts from a region known as the 'peanut belt'.

We discuss how peanuts are grown and then transformed into peanut butter, Manilife's mission to pioneer the specialty peanut butter sector and some of the challenges facing peanut farmers today.
