Saw nuts in shells in coles but they were mostly almonds, hazelnuts some walnuts and very few pecan nuts, NO brazil nuts.

 

Bought nuts in shells in woolies today because they had brazil nuts in them too and weren't just all almonds and hazelnuts.

hubby just said "they are years old, they are the worst nuts i have ever seen in shells"

 

good luck.

 

i think i would take them back if i had the recipt.

 

 


It would be better if they had the date packed date on them. Who knows how long a supermarket thinks nuts stay fresh for.. years by the looks of it.

 

I bought the worst nuts ever, in shells from WW pre-Christmas about 3 years ago. They were in a round metal tin and most of the lid was clear. Not sure if they country of origin was on the label either.

One of the nuts tasted like petrol. The rest were stale.. I did take them back for a refund.

 

Never bought nuts in a shell from them again.

I also bought the walnuts in shells from Woolies because they were so good last year and very fresh.

Love Brazil nuts too.  They taste so much better when they come in the shell as do all nuts.

Fresh brazil nuts. Awesome to eat.

I also like cooking Chesnuts in season.


Walnuts are OK, Love Macadamia.
