Walnuts: Why are they so expensive?
Bags of walnuts in the shell, I mean. After all, cherries are far more delicate, you'd think - and yet, when they're in season, it's easy enough to buy THOSE in good condition for under $4 a pound, if you shop around! OK, so you're buying the pits and stems as well, but those make up far less than 25% of the total weight, I'm guessing. Whereas with walnuts, the shell is 50% of the weight - and IIRC, you're lucky if you pay as little as $4 a pound - so that's $8 a pound WITHOUT the shell! BTW, here's a thread I started in 2012 about WHERE to buy them: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/rec.food.cooking/walnuts$20lenona/rec.food.cooking/fdypRjPYGT8/sA1HQk8vkS0J Even so, I'm curious as to the WHY of the matter, this time.

Just a simple Google search says that 99% of all the commercial
English walnuts grown in the U.S. are grown in California. California is in the second or third year of a terrible drought. I suspect that a further search would turn up statistics about how few will be produced this year.

Nuts in general aren't cheap. I guess it has to do with how much it costs to grow them. I never have so I don't know how long it takes to produce them or what the yield is per tree. |

I can't almonds, pistachios, pecans or macadamias. Shame because I love them all. I do limit the Brazil nuts because they are high in selenium and too much of that can cause trouble. |

I have several shagbark hickory trees, they are some 50-60 feet tall, gorgeous trees. I used to check but never found any nuts, just husks on the ground, squirrels... I was not about to compete with squirrels climbing trees. Nuts are also very perishable, they contain substantial oil so go rancid quickly. Nut trees can have more value as lumber... walnut wood is very expensive. It takes a long time to grow nut trees, if as a young woman you planted a stand of walnut trees figure only your grand children would benefit. |

Simple sugar and gelatine candies have very little more than the 25% VAT that also vegestables enjoy. But nuts and almonds are apparently horrible snacks for the population. Then there's the good old supply and demand, which is rapidly changing. An almond grower told that they could sell everything thats produced to china nowadays due to the new wealth there, and they are willing to pay even more.. It is only due to friendly deals from importers in the western world that the producers still sell to those. Could be a similar status for other nuts. Wonder how long the importers can keep it up until the prices will explode to fight with these new chinese buyers. |

I don't think I have ever met a Dane who has not told me about that 180% sales tax.

A funnier version of it is when a guy at a conference tour in california talked about the new dodge Challenger HellCat with 6.2liter engine and 700 horse powers , and the list price was 60.000$ he exclamed ( as if thats expensive). and then I said "oh well, I can get a 2 liter Ford Focus or maybe a top model Chevrolet Cruze for that amount!".

It is pronounced "fort."

I certainly do, usually regarding their grammar. See Carlin's first paragraph at the link. My TV hasn't been working lately, and it makes me realize more than ever just how much of viewers' time gets wasted on so-called news when they could read newspapers - IMO, a significant percentage of TV news, these days, is....kitten videos. Or stuff like that. If I had a kid, I'd put REAL limits on screen time, as my cousins do with their incredibly adorable, bright, well-read, and polite preteen kids - they even have an attention span!! It disgusts me the way some print journalists, who should know better, sometimes say stuff like "things have just changed in child-rearing and there's nothing parents can do about it." No, they could. If they weren't such cowards. There is NO reason to put a TV or videogames in the kid's BEDROOM if you care about their reading skills at all. When they cry, just say: "Think how happy you'll be when, unlike your classmates, you'll actually be able to write and spell by the time you're 8. Maybe you'll even get an A or two." Lenona. |
