Pistachio's? More addictive than crack cocaine I'm afraid. I can get to the point where my fingers are hurting, and virtually raw from opening them and I still can't can't stop myself

Bollox, cashew nuts are the true king of nuts.

The nuts are highly flammable when stored in large quantities, and are prone to self heating and spontaneous combustion. This curious property is the basis for a device known as the "nutty-bomb"

The salt and peppered ones from tesco are so good - but also soooo bad for me!

they seem to be carefully designed so that the time it takes to eat one is exactly the same as the time it takes to get the next one out of its shell.

Some people are like pistachios. No matter how hard you try, some of them just won't open. And even when you succeed, most of the time it wasn't worth the effort. 🙂

Pistachios are my favourite. So nice. I just get them from the whole foods section without added salt or anything like that.

Worse, it seems to take as much energy calorific wise to open one as the energy one provides.

Got a walnut tree in the garden, last year's harvest was piss poor, plenty of almonds though.
Munching through some pistachios and peanuts as we speak.

I like Brazil nuts, the yoghurt coated ones are especially good.

Pistachio's are great, but are quite a labour intensive nut.
