Post by jim »

Where have these damn things been all of my life? I actually have to count these f kers out so I don't eat 8000 calories worth at a setting.

I'm more partial to wasabi peas, personally. Always keep a jar/can/bag at my desk at work.

I liked them at first, but they got old pretty quickly.

I could see that. I was wondering that myself today, this is my second pound bag I have bought.

Generally speaking, I think most of these flavored almonds/cashews/peanuts are over salted to the point that whatever flavor they come up with gets old fast. I've started buying "naked" almonds and hitting them with just a pinch of sea salt.

Agreed. I really love those flavored almonds, but only as in every once in a while kind of thing.

My latest thing is unsalted pistachios.

Trader's has a bag of coconut cashews that are really good.
