Why is a peanut considered a bean?

Question:peanuts are not nuts-they're beans.

Answers:
I thought it was a legume.

Weird.
all peanuts are not beans
i didnt know that! intersesting. ...but...why?.they grow underground..did you know that tomatos are fruits? its true!
no they are not , they are NUTS!!!!!!!!!
Peanuts are legumes, not beans. The peanut is an indehiscent legume actually.
as the last answer reminded us its probably the same reason the a tomato is CONSIDERED a vegetable even tho it isnt one. We usually presume because it tastes different then object in the same family then it must be something else...
