Go nuts
1. Nuts are applied to any dry, hard fruit or seed having a hard, bony, or woody shell
surrounding an internal, edible kernel. In botanical terminology, the term “nut” is
restricted to a one-seeded fruit that has developed from a compound ovary, that has
external walls hardened to a woody consistency, and that is indehiscent, which means
that it does not split open to release its seed. Common examples are acorns and
hazelnuts. Examples of fruits or seeds that are popularly but incorrectly termed nuts
include almonds and walnuts, which are drupes with the fleshy outer layer removed;
peanuts, which are seeds contained in pods; and horse chestnuts and Brazil nuts, which
are seeds contained in capsules.
Although we tend to think of nuts as snack food, they are terrific sources of protein,
vitamins (especially vitamin E), mineral and oils.
