Looks Like I May Have A Use For The Almonds After All
I've realized that I can't eat much nuts without it upsetting my stomach. This goes with almonds and peanuts. That's a shame as I love the taste.
But now my thought is to use almonds to make almond milk. Already have the blender on order (should arrive today). Looks like this is a common thing as there are a bunch of youtube videos of folks making almond milk.
The jury is out to see if I can tolerate home made almond milk. I can tolerate store bought without issue.

I have an eaten an ounce of pistachios almost every day for most of my adult life. I like other nuts as well, but pistachios are my favorite. I was absolutely delighted when the health benefits of nuts began to be touted. I would find it very difficult to give up nuts.

I regularly snack on peanuts (technically not nuts), cashews, and smoked almonds.

Almonds used to bother my stomach too. Not anymore though, which makes me very happy. I wonder what it is about some nuts that cause stomach issues.

I used to eat 20 almonds every afternoon for a healthy snack, not sure why I dropped the habit.
Now I have Mega Omega mix* from Costco a couple times a week. The trick to not overeating for me is not eating out of the bag, I fill a 4 ounce ramekin and that’s all I get. I do the same with other snack foods, I don’t have them often and only a fixed serving when I do.
* Dried Cranberries,, Dried Mango, Roasted Almonds, Walnuts, Pumpkin Seeds

This looks great. Are you able to find it in the store or do you order online? Thanks.

[QUOTE=Midpack;2786561]I’ve been able to buy Mega Omega at Costco every time I need another bag for at least a year, but who knows what the future holds. There’s another similar product I also like, Omega-3 Deluxe with Cranberries, Walnuts, Pepitas, Almonds, Pecans and Pistachios.
Thanks! It's going on my Costco list.

Just made some almond milk .
More almond taste than store bought. I think can be addictive.

I searched this forum for Brazil and hit this thread about nuts.
I thought you go nuts because of the valuation of some Brazilian stocks.
Instead you are promoting nuts. I love the ones from Indonesia.
Tell me, why are Brazilian nuts more healthy than other nuts.
Do the agriculture companies also pay 10 to 20% dividends?
