The nuts I like the least (I'm talking here about the kind that you take out of a shell and roast, not the kind that Tardowen likes to fondle with the tip of his tongue, OK?) in those fancy mixes are Brazil nuts. Sometimes they taste like dirt or something. Hazlenuts are OK but tend to be bitter. The best ones are the cashews and almonds.

I actually keep a bag of raw almonds in my desk at work, for an occasional snack.

I think there’s another name for Brazil nuts. Can’t recall what it is. Might want to ask mvscal.

I usually buy one of the Planters premium mixes. Cashews, Almond & Pecans or Cashews, Almond & Macadamias.

e,

I believe Goobs was referring to the name "Nigga Toes". At least, that's what I have heard them called before. Hence, the reference to mvscal.
