I came across an article on Almonds touting their health benefits. We eat lot of nuts around here, I always have a couple of small bowls of mixed nuts and dry roasted peanuts on the coffee table. What irks me somewhat is the mixed nuts. I'd guess almonds make up more than half of the mix. I'm not a big fan of these nuts and although Dale claims to like them, at the end of most days almonds are what is mostly left.
I remember a few years ago there was an almond shortage due to bad weather where they are grown. It was a big deal in news stories. But I guess there is not a shortage now because they dominate cans mixed nuts.
In other nutty news, cans of the Schnucks Culinaria nuts are the best of most canned nuts. Way better than the national brands. The same is for the Schnucks brand bottled dry roasted peanuts.
