Reference the low-carb and paleo books that say to limit nuts if you need to
lose weight.
I once asked on this list why--was there something about nuts themselves or
was it just the sheer number of cals involved. One person answered that it
was the calorie density. While the calorie theory may be flawed, it can't
be tossed out by my experience.
I'm a purist--when I eat nuts (practically every day), I EAT nuts, whole,
plain, raw, and lots of them.
