Less than 50% peanuts my ASS! |
|
I just opened a can of mixed nuts. It says right on the front "Less than 50% peanuts". Look in the can and guess what? I find a couple pecans. A Brazil nut. Two cashews. Maybe 10 almonds. NO hazelnuts (even though they are shown prominently on the fron of the can) and the rest is ALL FUCKING PEANUTS!!!!! YOU CHEAP M*@%#* FU*$S!!!!

9. What's everyone's favorite nut? |
|
Used to be cashews but they seem almost too rich for whatever reason these days.
I think it's the almond. I like how when you apply pressure just right between your teeth, it will neatly split in two. And it's not too rich.
