Damn mystery nuts.
Edited on Sun Dec-11-05 01:44 AM by HypnoToad
Okay, so those 2LB bags of mixed nuts... they contain your walnuts, hazelnuts, almonds, pecans... and those little annoying round things, the size of a marble, that are bloody impossible to open up!

And even if you manage to open one of them up without needing treatment in the emergency room, try tasting it. YUCK!

What are they called? I want to write to the distributor companies (chiefly Diamond) and tell them what to go do with those things...

1. Hazlenuts are the round ones.
I don't care for those right out of the shell.

4. And in mixed nuts.
I've never baked with them though. Wouldn't mind trying to though.

5. Oh, those big brown things that look like, um, elephant testicles?
There's no other description that really fits them...

These nightmare nuts I am overly concerning myself of are entirely round; not banana-shaped and poo-colored...
