Rank your favorite nuts!

From an old thread I started a while back (What’s your favorite nut? ), This Post would serve as a summary of the polling.
Use the list if you like, but include your own favorites (including peanuts!) in a ranking list (high to low preference).

Include as many as you really like.

My list (at the present moment – and subject to change):

  1. Pecan
  2. Pistachio
  3. Cashew
  4. Hazelnut/filbert
  5. Hickory nut (shagbark or scalybark)
  6. Macadamia
  7. Peanut (Yes, it’s a nut!)
  8. Almond
  9. Walnut
  10. Brazil nut
  11. there has to be another one I like – help!

If you could design your own Mixed Nuts sampler or can, what percentages of what nuts would be in it?

  1. Almonds: versatile, lower in fat than some, good smoked or roasted; also see almond paste and almond extract.
  2. Walnuts: great for baking and the oil is a good wood finishing product
  3. Peanuts: god help me, I love 'em
  4. Pecans: sweet goodness

Cashews and macadamia nuts, while good, get cloying pretty quickly for me.

The left one.
Oops, I mean:

  1. Macadamia
  2. Pecan (in a pie)
  3. Pistachio
  4. Walnut
  5. Hazelnut
  6. Brazil nut
  7. Peanut
  8. Pecan (not in a pie)
  9. Cashew
  10. Almond
  11. Chestnut
  12. Kola nut - don’t think I’ve ever seen one of these

Since I couldn’t think of a way to build a poll to accomplish it, after we have a reasonable sampling of preferences I’ll try to generate a “consensus ranking” of the replies, for whatever that might be worth.

In that order.
