Whoa grace, when I read the title you really had wondering about a lot things there, glad to see that is a figure of speech in the naming of them. Otherwise there would be an officially new most dangerous job on the planet, tiger nut forager, lol.

😄😄😄, so funny, that was why i clarified it at the beginning of the post. Thanks for your comment.

Yeah I know, bad joke, and yes you did clarify right away in the post. You have to be careful with some of us Americans, we aren't very worldly and sometimes turn the most harmless things benign into vulgarity.

Now this is very informative post
I really did not know these nuts were this beneficial.This is awesome

Same here, i just eat it becuase i love the taste not until a colleague of mine came to the office and started eating it something very unusual of her, i had to question her and she said her mum told her to start eating it although her mum is battling cancer which i know she'll pull through, that was when i knew that it also prevents cancer and has lots of other benefits.
