Unpopular Opinion

Love them. I don't find them woody tasting. My daughter's girlfriend is allergic to nuts so I don't cook with them much now (they are living here) and I miss them.

I don't usually just want a handful but they make food better not worse.

Walnuts or pecans, such a pleasant texture in cinnamon rolls or banana bread, cookies.

Almonds are delicious with green beans.

Cashew butter makes better cream of mushroom soup than cream does, and I say this as a lover of cream, milk, cheese.

They are high in calories and nutrition for something that grows on a tree, too.

Yep, they kinda taste woody. What's wrong with eating wood tho? Trust me, if I could actually draw nutrition from wood, I would xD

But also, nuts have hella different texture. Only nut I hate is pistachio as of now, didn't taste them all after all.

Counterpoint: pistachios. Just the shell without the pistachio nut would be a lot less interesting.

You might have a thing called taste, which is not really an opinion.

Bro, you're nuts.

Upvote but hard disagree. Nuts are amazing. Plant one walnut tree get 1000s of walnuts every year that have a naturally long shelf life. They have lots of very healthy fats etc

Similar for other nuts.

Some of the posting in this Community are starting to get absurd. I'm going to make one that says I love murder and I hate babies next.

Nutritious food that grows for free on trees? What could be better?

Peanut Butter and Nutella

Your honor I rest my case.

'Might as well eat wood.'

I wish wood tasted that good.

But...baklava...

Pistachios out here looking to fight you over this.

Nuts are awesome but I probably wouldn't feel that way if they would kill me after I ate them.

But what about honey roasted nuts? So good 😋

This was inspired by the last two posts

Yes, you guys have created some truly unpopular posts

hard disagree, i need the cruch

Upvoted cause I heavily disagree with this. Cashews and almonds are the best snack ever. Almond Joys are the best chocolate candy bar.

Nutella, nuff said.

To compare them to eating wood is absurd. Your taste palate must be ruined.

I like pretty much none of them in my foods or deserts.

Some flavors of almonds or pistachios are straight fire, tho. They gotta have a flavor added, though.

Well its certainly an unpopular opinion I'll give you that. Nuts are fantastic in both flavour and nutritional value.

Chocolate peanuts are heavenly, and a good peanut brittle is class. Fuck you, with your shite opinion.

What about marzipan?

Nuts on their own - Might as well eat wood

Depends how old they are and/or how they were shipped. My local bulk store recently switched almond suppliers and the new ones are soooooo much better (from California to Spain). It's like night and day... before it was like eating gravel, but it was fine because that was just what gravel tasted like... but the revelation that almonds can actually taste like almonds is, well... I can never go back. Walnuts are not wood, fresh walnuts are bomb. Pecans are AMAZING with raisins. Almonds are total shit unless you can find the good ones from the good Spanish supplier.

You get to avoid things like the cyanide found in almonds by not eating nuts, hey.

So I tried to think of the top three things that I really enjoy with nuts in them:

1. Ice cream with hardening chocolate sauce and crushed peanuts sprinkled on top (sooo good)
2. Almond Roca (toffee plus chocolate plus nuts)
3. Whitefish with almonds on top. (I know I'm not describing this very well, but I've had several fish with nuts on top that have been truly outstanding.)

Upvoted because I'm jealous. I can't have nuts in the house because twin is allergic to tree nuts and I love her just enough to remove all them from the house so I can't cross contaminant anything accidentally. Would be easier if I hated them but boy I miss walnuts.
