OCT 22, 25.. AHH NUTS..

Hello NATIONAL TODAY..

National Nut Day is celebrated annually on October 22.

The day is devoted to all things nut-related including recipes and cooking tips.

Guess? IF you can! What Patti and I buy by the bag at our local Costco Store!

Costco’s, Kirkland brand, Salted Mixed  Nuts. Once lately I “slipped” and mistakenly bought the UNsalted Mixed Nuts. Never again do I plan to make this mistake!

I eat almonds daily, morning and night meals. Patti often “snacks” on mixed nut assortments.

According to the Nutcracker Museum, nuts were a regular part of the human diet from as far back as 800,000 years ago!

No matter what you eat today; include a healthy helping of nuts. They have lots of health benefits and (this tickled Patti and me) they make you happy!!

A few Nutty Tid-Bits..

Nearly 88% of people surveyed responded that they like or love nuts!

One in twenty-five people surveyed responded that they HATE nuts.

One-in-five people surveyed picked Planters as their favorite nut brand.

$800 million – The amount Americans spend each year on peanut butter.

Chocolate companies buy 40% of the world’s almond supply.

We can’t speak for any of our readers BUT Patti herself really enjoys reading many of the NATIONAL TODAY website links we provide here.

    What is the time-honored refrain: You are what you eat? I also go ‘nut’s’ over nuts! I own it! Great food for energy and good health! And when one thinks about it….what kind of world would this be if one day we all went to the ballpark and the hard-working/hawking sales folks, those peanut vendors no longer shouted their joy…..’Peanuts! Who wants peanuts? PEANUTS HERE!’
    Then again, there’s always hot dogs! lol
