some say because of the grease in peanuts

Somehow because of the oil that peanuts give but it is still the clogging of your pores that is causing the pimples.

No. The bit about not eating greasy foods is a myth. I tried not eating chocolate, greasy foods, etc., and I still break out (and I'm 40) once in a while. The only way you might break out from eating peanuts is if you're allergic to them. The best prevention for acne breakouts is to wash with a really good facial cleanser formulated for acne prone skin. Wash no more than twice a day or your skin will simply produce more oil to make up for the over washing. Eat a healthy balanced diet rich in omega 3, 6, 9, and other essential fatty acids which are good for your skin (vitamin E is another), vitamins A & D are good for the skin also. Drink plenty of water (6 to 8 glasses a day) and get lots of exercise. If you still break out, you may want to see a doctor for a good acne gel. Clindamycin and Differin are 2 good ones to ask for but they're available by prescription only. You could also ask a pharmacist for a good face wash and acne gel. There are some good ones on the market. Hope this info helps.

If you’re looking for accurate acne information, best to see a dermatologist. Some people believe doctors are predisposed to take the easy way to deal with acne… prescription drugs. But, with many, this simplistic answer may not be the appropriate course of action. Some feel that such prescription drugs just treat the symposium and not the underlying cause. But, a local dermatologist is still your best starting point.
For me personally, I discovered a great informational acne treatment site. Not only is there good information/articles but I got their audio e-book and following it’s advice can now say that my acne is a thing of the past! Keep in mind, were all different and there are various types of acne, so what works for some may not be totally effective for all.
Bottom line, hang in there, you will get past this! Sincere best wishes and good luck.
Oh, by the way the site that helped me is:

Damn right that peanuts=zits. The oil is insoluable and finds its way right to the surface of your skin. Your sebaceous glands will have a special on peanut oil the day you eat peanuts or peanut butter.
Match that with the filthy bathing habits that I know you have, and there they are - pimple-ville.
Try eating a lot of curry and take a whiff of your skin....you are what you eat!
Learn about food balancing on the web - that will help you enjoy peanuts without the pimples.
