Nutty favorite sesame nuts
Trader Joe’s Sesame Glazed Blanched Walnuts are seriously good: sweet, crunchy, and nutty. I can’t put them in the snacking-nut bowl because they get eaten up right away.
Blue Diamond Pecan Nut Thins are also tasty. The crackers have a weird buttery coating, but they’re crunchy and not too salty.
I like nuts and eat a lot of them, being some crazy vegetarian. From most-favorite to least-favorite:
| kind | good things | bad things | butter |
|---|---|---|---|
| almonds (roasted unsalted) | sweet, dense | the raw ones are gross | yes (smooth) |
| cashews (salted) | nutty, roasty, crunchy-hard | Winer likes them too | no |
| peanuts (dry-roasted, unsalted) | familiar, not too oily | not the best ratio of fats | yes (crunchy) |
| walnuts (roasted, unsalted) | creamy, oily, crunchy-smooth | walnut dust lands on me; skins are bitter and stick in teeth | no |
| pecans (unsalted) | oily, different | cloying somehow | no |
