    Flip side of the studies that show people that eat almonds as a snack live longer.

    Almonds are fucking expensive, yo. If you’re snacking on almonds, you’re doing OK already.

      what? they are fairly cheap for a nut. that’s why they are so ubiquitous. walnut, pecan, pistachio, macademia… all more per lb.

      most other nuts cost more, excluding peanuts.

      almonds are about 5 dollars a lb raw, which is the price of cheap cuts of chicken, which is by far the cheapest meat on the market.
