I think all the nuts have value, even the lame ones like almonds and walnuts which are some of the healthiest so like maybe toss em in a salad or do some slivered almonds with green beans once in a while

but of course the fatty ones taste better like pecan, cashew, and macadamia, but they all have their places too and should be enjoyed like any other nut

Walnuts and Brazil nuts. They’re both terrible and flavorless.

I WISH walnuts were flavorless, then they wouldn't ruin otherwise good breads and sweets people hide them in.

My least favourite are walnuts but even those are pretty good. The worst but is probably like, ham. Good at ham, bad at being a nut.

Because when consumed correctly (the ways I tell you to) they're so good you don't need to be reminded what they are just by saying their name out loud every 2 minutes like every other, lesser nut.

:agreed:

Walnuts don’t belong in anything edible. Period.

And while we’re at it, I love raisins; they’re good by themselves. They should NEVER go into cookies or cakes, though. Only Raisin Bran.

Looking at you, carrot cake and oatmeal cookies :argh:

I dunno if that counts

100% on the nuts in baked goods.
Mostly with you on the raisins, but I actually DO like them in carrot cake so I'm a bit of a hypocrite there

Over a decade ago I found a recipe for some kind of walnut and chicken fricassee. I can't find it now.

It wasn't bad. The walnuts were all blended up into the sauce with tomato puree, white wine, onions and garlic.

I typically don't like walnuts.

It wouldn't work for everything. I'm talking specifically snack food. Beef jerky? Pickled onions? Cheese?

Walnuts look like dried up brains so they are pretty much offensive to all the senses.

All in moderation

I vote peanut when you buy mixed nuts that are 70% peanuts . Right then when you’re digging through a pile of peanuts in search for the one almond half that’s still in the tin , that’s the worst nut

This thread reminded me of my childhood when we had a nutcracker and my parents would buy big bags of assorted nuts and we'd eat them throughout the christmas season.
It's brazil nuts. They are the worst nut. They're a pain in the rear end to open and not even slightly worth it

I bought some kinda nut mix in america and it was like 50% chocolate pellets. Pretty sure chocolate isn't a nut by any stretch of the imagination, but american chocolate tastes like puke so I vote that.
