You've just bought a can of mixed nuts which contains peanuts, pecans, pistachios, almonds, cashews, hazelnuts, Brazil nuts, and walnuts.

 

Do you just grab a handful from the top, or do you pick them out in some specific order?

 

I start with a mixed handful and then take a few almonds.

Pecans first with Brazil nuts next. After those it would be cashews & pistachios.

Off to eat 3 Brazil nuts to get my selenium.

@PickyPicky3 smileyloll: I buy the mixed salted nuts from Costco, and I try not to go for all the Macadamia nuts and pecans, but sometimes.....

I grab a bag bag of chocolate chips, melt slowly in the micro, mix in nuts and spread on waxed paper to cool.  When eaten in this manner, they're all so good, you don't care which variety goes first.

  2. Cashews
  3. Pistachios
  4. Hazelnuts
  5. Peanuts

@Kachina624  Hey that's cheating and not fair!  (A good plan though, that I just might try!)

I hoard the Brazil nuts, there are usually not many of them.
