Nuts are just bad.
I hate nuts. I'm not allergic to them.
Everything about them is wrong, I've never had food that contained nuts that wouldn't have been significantly better without them.
Chocolate with nuts - What was wrong with just the former
Nuts on their own - Might as well eat wood
Nutbars - gross.
Food with nuts is just bad, and the sooner we move on from this dated cultural institution the better.

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.
Nutritious food that grows for free on trees? What could be better?
Peanut Butter and Nutella
Your honor I rest my case.
OP replaces with Butter and ella. Seems doable.
Peanuts aren't nuts tho
But...baklava...
Pistachios out here looking to fight you over this.
'Might as well eat wood.'
I wish wood tasted that good.
It does if you smoke things with it.
Some of the postings in this Community are starting to get absurd. I'm going to make one that says I love murder and I hate babies next.
Hating babies is pretty common
I'm happy they exist I just don't think they're cute and don't ask me to hold one.
PROTEIN IS AWFUL 🤢

Yes, you guys have created some truly unpopular posts
Well its certainly an unpopular opinion I'll give you that. Nuts are fantastic in both flavour and nutritional value.
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.
But what about honey roasted nuts? So good 😋
Or spiced nuts
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.
Interesting that only one of you has allergies. When did you realize?
I was the healthier baby and now the 'healthier' adult. Er, my immune system was better at least. I an not healthy lol.
Twin always reacted much stronger to the cats than I did so they got a full workup as a kid. The tree nuts started at pine nuts but expanded over the years.
because twin is allergic to tree nuts
Why not get that treated? Leaving it untreated isn't helping unless it's not possible. Immunotherapy for this exists.
Insurance won't cover it. We could look again but it's still unlikely!
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.
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.
Same I got that beaver in me 😶
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.
Nuts are awesome but I probably wouldn't feel that way if they would kill me after I ate them.
hard disagree, i need the cruch
Nuts are a vehicle for salt.
Pesto sauce is pretty great.
Counterpoint: pistachios. Just the shell without the pistachio nut would be a lot less interesting.
I hate nuts in & on food. But I love eating nuts by themselves. I am very picky about the type of nuts I like. Nuts are actually super good for you.
Have you considered the humble Filbert?
So I tried to think of the top three things that I really enjoy with nuts in them:
What about marzipan?
I bet you like deez nuts tho.
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.
Nah I got a bag of raw pistachios. Amazing
Pistachios are closest to tasting good with nothing on them, but they taste so much better with a bit of flavor. Like a steak that had no salt or pepper or anything. It's edible, but there's a reason no one eats it that way.
I agree with this with my exception being peanut butter which I love. My favorite snacks always involve peanut butter.
But plain nuts are gross. And I’m sick of everyone’s instance on putting nuts in salad 🤮
Overall I disagree (so upvoted), but I do have to agree that chocolate is generally better without nuts in it.
Agreed
I agree wholeheartedly
You’ve just never had summa Deez Nuts™️
I’ll see myself out
You get to avoid things like the cyanide found in almonds by not eating nuts, hey.
Nuts to you then.
You might have a thing called taste, which is not really an opinion.
When I saw that post about fruits and chocolate, I immediately thought about chocolate bars that have nuts in them. Brilliant combination IMO, but apparently that’s a reasonably popular opinion.
Anyway, if you were the emperor of the world and you found the person who invented nut chocolate, what would be their punishment?
agree but they're good with chocolate
