NUTS, let's go!!

[Pearl]

Who eats them and what kind? We always have almonds, cashews, and pistachios around! What a great healthy snack! Yet I can't go unsalted. Nuts are our 'go to' easy to grab snack!

 

[Bacpacker]

All the above, plus walnuts and peanuts. Great snack and healthy

I’m not prejudice. Love them all. Eat a lot of almonds day to day. Some plain, some lightly salted, some salt and vinegar, honey and when I’m feeling frisky I have wasabi and soy sauce almonds. Wasabi and soy sauce almonds go well with beef jerky

Does pecan pie count? Lol

 

[Peanut]

I keep peanuts in the house, eat a lot of them. We used to grow them when I was a kid. Wish I had a good source for peanuts now.

And pecans, lots of pecans. There has always been a dozen or so pecan trees here on the farm. I have a few pieces of pecan pie in the freezer now!

I don't think I've met a nut that I don't like. We usually buy the large Costco bags of whatever varieties they have in stock. Sometimes we'll splurge and buy Macadamia Nuts or Pine Nuts (I think those are really seeds, not nuts, but I like them anyway!)

My favorite would have to be the lowly peanut. In the shell unsalted or very lightly salted. Or Spanish peanuts (again, lightly salted). Second favorite nut would be the pistachio. Followed closely by cashews, hazelnuts, Brazil nuts, macadamias and pine nuts (I think those are really seeds, not nuts, but I like them anyway!) This group comes behind the peanut and pistachio only because they seem richer to me, and I have to go with a much smaller quantity of them. Pecans and walnuts are a slight step down from there. At the end come almonds, not because they are bad, but because I have eaten so many of them that I'm kind of tired of them. But all nuts are good! I will chow down on any of them.

I like them all, but peanuts (not a true nut) is the one I have eaten the most of. We got mix nuts in the shell as a child at Christmas.
I have eaten hickory, Black walnuts & pecans as a child. Pine nut are good too.

Cashew shells are poisonous, that's why you never get them in their shells!

We eat a lot of nuts, and I like them all. Cashews and pecans are my favorite, though.

 

[Morgan101]

We always have them in the house, usually mixed nuts. If I were to vote for a favorite, it would be cashews with pistachios a close second. I have found it impossible to watch a Baseball game without a bag of peanuts. That is distinctly Unamerican.

 

[Spikedriver]

I eat quite a lot of peanuts. They have a balancing effect on blood glucose, and since I'm a Type 1 diabetic, that can be pretty important to me...

My sister and bil grown filberts commercialy in the Willimatte Valley. I dont know if they'll grow here but the wife wants to plant a few trees and see.

 

[snappy1]

Black walnuts are my favorite followed by pecans and peanuts. I don't eat a lot of them because of calorie count.

 

[dademoss]

I like walnuts and pecans, grandpa had a huge walnut tree between the house and the workshop, there were always walnuts to be shelled and cracked and eaten.

But the apple like fruit is edible.

 

[havasu]

I'm embarrassed to admit I've never seen a cashew shell.

We usually only fry nuts in the spring of the year. The wife won’t eat them but the boy and I quite enjoy a good nut fry!

You don't want to!

 

[phideaux]

For years I grew peanuts. Put them in used feed bags for drying, I would roast them raw peanuts in the oven to a golden brown, and a little more.

OMG...the best.

Then we had a giant pecan tree , paper shell pecans, that we would pickup 5 gallon buckets full every year. OMG...soooo good.

Memories

Still buy raw peanuts from local hardware store , that sells them by the lb.

Pistachios are up there also.

Then every other nut .

Even the nuts from HCL ain't bad

Umm...wrong kind of nuts.

The local VFW used to put on a fundraiser every spring, and turkey fries were the main meal. I don't like them. Yuck.
