almonds
i am becoming increasingly fond of almonds. and the thing is, i used to hate them. i think i would go so far as to say that at this present time, the almond is my favourite nut.
it's the coating of a nut that will always let it down. like those little peanuts with the bitter reddy-brown skins, for instance. and you can't separate the almond skin from its meat. not that i would want to, nowadays. i've grown to love that chestnuty texture and taste. but the best thing about the almond is how you can crunch it sideways between your teeth and get two halves with the perfectly smooth inside.
i would be interested to know the identity of the other team members' favourite nut.

you want to know my biggest cranberry-related gripe? the way supermarkets place the cranberry juice drink with all the other juices. i suppose cranberries are so small, it's not possible to get a litre of juice out of them. or else it just tastes so foul that nobody would drink it. but it's just misleading, in my opinion. juice = healthy, whereas juice drink = adulterated death elixir. cranberry sauce (or "i-buried-paul," as certain beatlecentric friends of mine have been known to refer to it) is the only acceptable use of this berry, meine meinung nach.
