Peanuts and other associated nuts.

OK well you asked for it.

I do love peanuts with my crisps. A bowlful mixed together.

Generally these are salted peanuts but I do occasionally like Dry Roast peanuts. I love honey but feel the honey ones a bit sickly. Sometimes I have other flavoured ones.

Also I probably mentioned this before but do you remember when Woolworths would have a big container of them and you'd buy them by weight rather than pre-packed. I really loved them. They don't taste like that anymore.

Peanuts always remind me of pre-vomit. They're nuts for commoners. Your quality nuts are pistachio, cashew and, to a lesser extent, almonds.

Honey roasted cashews, please.

I do like cashews but they're about twice the price of peanuts.

I cannot read 'peanuts' without hearing Eric Morecambe call "PEEAAAAAAAA-NUUUTS!"

I remember when peanut sellers were a regular sight walking round the perimeter of the pitch at top-flight football matches during the game.

Don't worry, herc, I'll find you a job as my bad tempered butler. The pay is three shillings a month and a shiny half crown at Christmas.

Spend less on crisps, then you might be able to afford cashews.

No love for chestnuts? Bit of oil, baked with sprouts, I could eat that any day.

I recommend toasted walnuts, pine nuts or pecan nuts, in fact all nuts are better hot, tasty little things.

I expect you enjoy tea-bagging too, as I believe hot nuts are involved with that delicacy

No. Just tea.
