And Now a Word From...

Me.

In the interest of keeping the government off my back I will state here that the following is a free endorsement. Heh. (like anyone would give me anything to plug their product... right)

I just ordered a bag of trail mix from nutsonline.com.  I was looking only to buy roasted salted pecans (because I love pecans but can only find the raw ones in the store and I am too too lazy to roast my own).  So I started searching and ran across this site.

I decided - well - why not just create the mix I want instead of buying only the pecans.  So I did.

The smallest bag you can mix like that is 5lbs.  (Ordering one type of nut you can get smaller bags and they have sample sizes)  So I got a mix of roasted/salted pecans, walnuts, almonds, cashews, dried cranberries, and chocolate covered gogiberries. 

All I can say is - phenomenal!  I have always bought nuts from the grocery store.  These are nothing like the ones from the grocery store.  Nothing at all.  I've never had nuts that tasted so fresh.  They are "light" and crunchy.  Not dense and dry.  It's quite amazing.  I may go through the bag in record time. 

So, if you like to snack on nuts, I would highly recommend them! 

We now return you to our regularly scheduled blog (where I have nothing else to say tonight).

1 Your post is useful to me, at least. We have trouble getting fresh nuts up here; at least every other bag or can of nuts will be stale & sometimes mushy. Maybe that site can get 'em here fresh, too. Thanks!

2  Rev Paul - I hope they ship to Alaska because even with a few extra days transit, these would be most excellent!

What the hell are gogiberries and will they overnight them?

6 Laura they seem to be much like raisins. They are all the rage for peeps who think a certain type of fruit will cure all ills.  For me - I just like them... probably because they are covered in dark chocolate.

I do believe they will overnight them - you'll have to check. LOL.
