The macadamia is the king of nuts.  I heard the shell can dent a steel vice.

You can get selenium poisoning from too many brazil nuts.

Inexpensive prostitutes in 19th century would often accept peanuts as payment for services.  That's where the expression 'paying peanuts' comes from when something is cheap.

Peanuts in the can generally have a lot of oil, so it may taste better.  More fat.

Planters cocktail peanuts have a lot of oil in them, that's why they taste so good!
