Guest guest Posted February 5, 2004 Report Share Posted February 5, 2004 Carol, The only thing I can think of off-hand is to find a new source of walnuts. I have never found a shell in ours. Maybe another company/source would be a good idea. Jody mom to -5.1 and -7.5 SCD 1 year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 5, 2004 Report Share Posted February 5, 2004 Oh my gosh.... You know I was looking at the bag here for an address cause these are Diamond brand walnuts I bought at Sam's. Guess what??? They have BHT in CORN OIL added to preserve freshness!!!! For crying out loud.... Good thing I this is the first time with these, so she has only had a couple of cookies. Am having the same problem with the pecans which I also buy at Sam's, but they have nothing added. What brands are you guys buying that you aren't getting any shells?? You would have thought Diamond would be a good brand name. The pecans from Sam's are from Young Pecan company. Carol in IL ps127@...

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2004 Report Share Posted February 5, 2004 Carol, I buy mine at the HFS or at Kroger. I have bought one bag of the pecans at Sam's and didn't find any shells, but I will make sure to be very careful if I ever buy those again. I wonder if you could put the nuts in a big funnel and sift out the shells that way? If you buy whole nuts, there will always be a few smashed ones, but the shells should go out the bottom of a large funnel. Just trying to think of ways to make sure the shells are out...
