    LOL am I the weird one for pretty much liking all kinds of nuts?? Peanuts, almonds, pecans, walnuts, cashews, pistachios, hazelnuts, macademia, brazil nuts, pine nuts....YUM!
    not weird at all! I'm actually jelly because I wish I could just eat and enjoy every nut!

    I've just been eating them all since I was a child, so I've just loved them forever! I use to get big bags of mixed nuts (in shell) at the store, and loved cracking them all open and eating them. Oh and I totally forgot about Filberts! They are like hazelnuts, but look like mini acorns (in shell). LOVE THEM! :heart:

    okay correction (cause Im a bit retarded): Filberts = hazelnuts. Could only picture them with their shell on in my head and went blank. So yes. I love hazelnuts. Alot.

    interesting fact: peanuts are actually legumes or "beans"
    are seeds classified as legumes?

    not usually.

    I work with a few I'd rather not. :bigsmile:

    I don't like pine nuts. They remind me of turpentine.

    I like almost any nuts, though I couldn't see myself eating a lot of walnuts on their own (great added to a salad for extra protein though) and I'm not a great fan of Brazils.
    Re macadamias - they are fabulous! Not chocolate covered, just plain - delicous!

    i like most of them. but im not keen on macadamias or hazelnuts on their own. hazelnuts are only good in chocolate or flavouring for coffee. Macadamias just taste of fat to me

    I love walnuts, pecans, pistachios, almonds, peanuts, hazelnuts, cashews, I can't recall if I've had pine or brazil, but I'm always eating nuts for snacks cuz I have a problem meeting my daily calories and nuts r pretty high...I don't like peanut butter much unless its a candy like reeses or those peanut butter eggs, etc. I get sliced almonds for salads... winco has those bulk food section where u can get nuts n bulk and have a lot of different choices.

    I cannot stand peanuts. EW EW EW EW EW! They can fully kill a meal.

    I do like Delish brand peanut butter - but that is more sugar than peanut. Lol.

    In NZ, you don't often find Reeses, but I do enjoy those.



    I looooove macadamias, almonds, hazelnuts, brazil nuts. Just NOT peanuts. =)

    Oh my gosh, yes - hazelnut soy hot chocolate = the best! I'm not dairy-free, but I love the mixture of the three types. =)

    If it counts: One time visiting my cousin she had flavored almonds, they were jalapeno flavor and the smell was eh so i tried eating them and I actually got sick. Whether it was the almonds (bcuz that was the first time i ate almonds) or just the flavoring I didn't like them

    Brazil nuts are not a favorite of mine. But, absolutely love all the others! I almost always have pecans, walnuts, peanuts and cashews on hand...yum, now I want nuts. I adore toasting them. The nut aisle at Trader Joe's makes me swoon. They have a Rosemary Dusted Marcona Almond that is way too expensive for my budget, but worth every penny. I buy myself a small bag for Mother's Day each year and hide them from my hubby. :blushing: Otherwise he'll polish them off in two handfuls while telling me he doesn't really care for them. WTF!

    I have never met a nut that was not a friend? Of the food variety, at least...

    I love raw nuts and seeds! pine, almond, sunflower mmmmm

    but my question to you is what nuts make you go YUCK! ?

    I can't stand walnuts or pecans omg even the smell of them turns my stomach
    and idk why!

    how about you?

    I have not met a nut or seed I don't like. I love nuts!!! I have to say that Pistachios and Macadamia nuts are my favorites, and the most expensive. I love cashews also................

    I no longer eat peanuts because they are not a nut, but a legume and I have given up all beans and legumes. But I do like peanuts, just no longer a part of my eating plan and I find that I don't miss them either.

    I love nuts, however they don't reciprocate! I still eat them, but accept that they don't pass through the plumbing easily!
