I've been eating Everybody's Nuts!
I love munching on nuts and I'm addicted to these giant, salty ones. I first discovered how much I loved Everybody's Nuts when Ed shared his with me. They were included in a very generous gift basket of gourmet goodies he received from a business associate. Ever since then I've been addicted! I wait for a good sale and then I buy up a bunch. I sometimes put Everybody's Nuts on my desk at work and pop them into my mouth for a nice little snack.
Everybody's Nuts are giant California pistachios. And the best part about them is that every single nut is guaranteed to be open! Most bags of pistachio nuts you buy include about fifteen percent nuts whose shells must either be cracked open with a nutcracker, or tossed off the balcony to torment a squirrel. I prefer to torment the squirrels, as Ed will attest to. But if you find an unopened pistachio inside a box of Everybody's Nuts resist the temptation to throw it off the roof as Everybody's Nuts will send you a free box of pistachios (as long as you return the offending nut to them with proof of purchase). So far, I've not had the opportunity to take them up on their offer and the neighborhood squirrels haven't needed to oil up their catching mitts. They've hired some eagle-eyed, quality control folk to watch the nuts moving down the conveyor belt toward the packing department.
Why am I telling you how much I enjoy eating Everybody's Nuts? Simply because I love them! Oprah spends a whole hour each year just about this time preaching her love of a variety of products. So I said to myself the other day, "Self, if everyone loves to hear Oprah talk about her favorite things then surely they'd like to listen to mine!"
At that point a tumbleweed blew through the room .
And in the interest of full transparency I've not been paid or compensated in any way to endorse my habit of eating Everybody's Nuts. I haven't even knowingly met or spoken with anyone at Everybody's Nuts or any PR firm they have hired. I did meet Oprah once, but she didn't ask me to endorse her nuts either.

If you're not getting paid to push someone's nuts, you should be. Seems like you've got a real talent for that kind of thing.
Im usually very particular about my nuts, but these sound worth a try. How can I get my hands on these nuts? The internet? Are there nuts on the internet?
I'm convinced..checked the website for my nearest store location..buying right after work today :)
Hmm, as an afirmed pistachio-lover, I'm ashamed that I haven't sampled Everybody's Nuts!
I've got a little habit of my own, though: would you like to Try My Nuts?
Personally, I have found many people's nuts that I am not a fan of. But I do love Everybody's Nuts. Salty and yummy, and love the way they feel in my mouth.
(can't. stop. laughing.)
Hee hee...your post made me choke on my lunch from laughing. I love pistachios, and can't believe I haven't gotten a chance to eat Everybody's Nuts yet. They look really good! I think I'm going to try to get some of Everybody's Nuts tonight.
I love these too, and I'm very particular about my nuts! I just discovered them a couple of weeks ago.
so far, i have only eaten Everybody else's nuts, but i look forward to eating Everybody's Nuts soon.
irreverent blogging!
happy new year!
Found this blog by accident when searching for Everybody's Nuts. We love it too and after 6 or 7 packages of the unsalted, finally found one that was UNOPENED. We sent it back, and even though it took them about a couple of months to respond, they DO honor their guarantee - we now have a coupon for a FREE package, along with a funny letter about "sending the wayward pistachio to therapy to see if they can get him to open up" ;>)
After a dozen or so boxes, I actually found FOUR unopened nuts in a box of Roasted & Salted today. I usually get the Sakt and Pepper, but today the store was out!
Free Nuts!
