WTF MAN BRAZILS RULE. Especially coated with yoghurt. If a nut ever deserved to be expunged from the face of the earth it is the walnut.

five months pass...

it feels like there should be an alternative hierarchy of nuts based on what it's like to eat a whole bunch of them. like walnuts; they really suffer once you've eaten ten or fifteen. and brazils; that chalkiness becomes too much!

the momentum you develop while pistachio-popping would probably work in their favour, with this approach.

Bollocks. They're great. I don't have a bad word to say about any nuts.

Also due to their high polyunsaturated fat content, primarily omega-6, shelled Brazil nuts soon become rancid.

As a hater of brazil nuts, I wonder if this may be where my problem is.

Like, I should find a way to buy them entire.

I would have voted for brazil nuts

No votes for hazelnuts either, you people are sick and wrong

In retrospect, I wish peanuts had won for their versatility.

I've seen your type before: flashy, making the scene, flaunting convention, eating cashews

crushed peanuts on ice cream sundaes are a mother fucker.

i find that w/pistachios, constantly pulling apart the shell kind of wears on the fingers after a while, which means at least i don't gorge myself on them as much as on cashews

Hate cashews, too rich and fatty

this just seems like a good delay mechanism to me, so they last longer. you get a pleasing rhythm going, chewing while you're cracking.
