Brazil nuts in the shell are a very tough nut to crack. I can never get them out whole. Maybe if I were a toucan it would be easier. As far as flavor and texture go, I find them a bit bland and very slightly fiberous compared to other nuts, but they are still a pleasurable nut to eat.

I don't know that I've ever seen them in the shell. I like their texture - they remind me of macadamia nuts.

To be honest I can't think of a single nut that I don't like.
The only time I've disliked the taste is if they're stale or oversalted.

This poll seems like a small fragment of a round-robin tournament that has never taken place on ILX.

re: nutella, there's some class action thing going on where you can get money for being lied to about the health benefits of nutella.

i've never gotten money for being lied to about almonds, so i maybe should have voted for hazelnuts.
