A buckwhat?
First of all, it’s Ohio’s state tree, that provides a nut by the same name. Native Americans in Ohio believed it looked like the eye of a deer.
Buckeyes are also a delicious peanut butter and chocolate candy that look a lot like the nuts.

Buckeyes are also basketball players, swimmers, football players, tennis players, lacrosse players – student athletes at Ohio State University in Columbus, OH.
