The last word I saw was that macadamia nuts are also common in Australia
and that there was a special vice like tool they use to crack one nut at a
time.

BUT, isn't the nut a seed?  Doesn't nature some-how have to open the shell
so the seed can root and grow?

Macadamia are wonderful source of "energy" fats and relatively a good
source of fibre and very low in sugar carbs, so they seem to be a natural,
good food for NeanderPeople.
