Order Raw Brazil Nuts!

[AnnGrazjun]

I've been ordering from here for a while now, thought I'd let some of you know. It's cheap and provides fast delivery, but I guess I get them quick because I only live 30 minutes away from their distribution center, lol.

Although these are shelled, they are raw. I haven't broken out from them so I have no worries. But if anyone here has anything to counter my claims I would like to hear from you

How are they shelled???
How much susceptible is your skin to munchfoods regarding acne?

When nuts are salted/flavored in any way, then my skin is prone to breakouts. Since I absolutely love nuts, not being able to eat them was a bummer. But once I realized that eating them raw left me clear, I was hooked! I'll have to get back to you on how they are shelled...I was a bit curious myself so I'll post back when I get an answer from them

BTW for those of you who remember me from a while back, I'm not that same person. This was my girlfriend's account and I'm using it now because she is no longer here. I'm a guy, btw. She's been off this diet for a while (as I have), and began eating SAD (standard american diet) ever since she got a new job that requires her to constantly be on the move. I've been using her account occassionally to write, but now I'm back on the raw diet so I'll be popping my head in here more often. C YA!

The following is the response I got from the company:

Hello,
No heat is used. Our nuts are mechanically dehulled with just cracking
rollers and air.

So they don't use any heat in their nut-cracking process. Good stuff

Sounds good!
