    I like both...just depends really.

    Raw almonds are great. I just love the flavor. But I like to roast pine nuts and other things like that to bring out the flavor more.

    I'm allergic to most nuts... Not in a "going into anaphylactic shock" kind of way. I have eczema, so it makes my skin break out if I eat too many. I find if I eat roasted nuts, I don't have any problems, though. Maybe the cooking does something to the chemical composition? Don't know.

    cooking nuts actually destroys some of the nutrients. You get more value from them if they are raw. Plus less salt.
