Nuts to Me!

WHY is the popcorn at Nuts to You so addictive? It's perfectly salted, not oily, very crisp and slightly toasty. For a measly $1.25 you get a giant bag about the size of 3 microwave popcorn bags. Plus, it's freshly popped and AWESOME. The guy behind the counter told me it can keep fresh for only 2-3 days however, so make sure you eat the whole bag like i do in one sitting. (Alright, probably more like 5 sittings -- it's a bigass bag!) They also sell an unsalted bag which would be perfect for popcorn balls or chocolate drizzle!

While you're there, be sure to get a pound of "Sweet Cream Almonds" which a few of us have appropriately dubbed "Cracknuts." The fresh almonds are roasted with a sweet/salty coating that's pure amazingness. If you like sweet roasted nuts, you'll eat the entire pound in 2 days. Happiness for $6.99!

I wonder what other addictive goodness can be found at Nuts to You...

On another note, i just made a raw beet and apple slaw that came out quite tasty! Originally i bought the beets for the tops. I wasn't sure how to make the actual beet roots and didn't want to run the oven or boil them forever. The slaw is very crunchy, fresh and tasty. Note i used apple cider vinegar (1/3 less than the recipe suggested) and pink lady apples instead of Granny Smith. It's a lot of grating but well worth the pink hands. I wonder if be the beet hater will attempt to try them.
