Smokehouse Almonds

[Gamplayerx]

Quite possibly one of the world's most perfect foods.

Also, this picture cracks me up.

[Beefy]

I got some for Xmas.

[Jessie]

We had some honey roasted almonds in here once and my god they were fantastic.

[Gamplayerx]

Probably not as good as smokehouse.  Mmmm, salt.

PISTACHIOS.......

i ate a 2lb bag, mostly by myself at christmas.... i'm not proud about that.

[BigDun]

I have about 1/3 of a 2 lb jar of pistachios on my kitchen counter. They are like the crack of the unshelled nut world.

Red or not red?

Red or not red?

never red, but always with shell, that's part of fun. throwing shells at people.

I agree on not red.  I agree on with shell.  I don't throw my shells at people though, meanie.  Do you eat the weird skin and bulby thing or do you throw those at people, too?

i'm wierd about my food to a point, i'm a chef, so no wierd skin....

throwing depends on what we're drinking...

You're a chef? 

I don't know what I thought you did, not that I can now recall ever having any clue about what you did.

Does "the shit of jobs" mean a good thing or a bad thing?

(I know the difference between monkeys and apes - it's a pet peeve of mine, I was just being funnyishicalish)

if you worked there...you NEVER refered to them as monkeys, i know you understand the difference. it was a very dangerious job as well, but all GOOD. lots of factors considered  upon giving notice, just had to, but i soo love those guys, all 170 of them. i could tell you some very funny stories !!!  the building that i spent most of my time in, were decentants  of the original NASA chimps. we had 3 -4yr olds there, smart and totally adorable.

Let's get down to brass tacks here:  How much for the ape?

[Jessie]

I wish my life was that interesting!

[DownSouth]

I can eat pounds of boiled peanuts in one sitting.  There's a guy right before the lake that has fresh ones boiling all day.

[Gamplayerx]

Boiled peanuts are gross and not smokehouse almonds. I'll bet even Grace's monkeys wouldn't eat boiled peanuts.

[Alice]

I've never had boiled peanuts.  Can't say as they sound very good.

Go eat your pickled pigs feet!

My feet may be a bit smelly, but that's a bit rude, don't you think?
