Another article about the rising price of nuts. In today's Centre Daily Times, there is an article about the rising prices of pecans--just in time for Thanksgiving! In a class I taught last week, as well as the post from November 3, the recipe for spinach orange salad included pecans. Of course, you can substitute any nut you like in that salad--almonds would be great. Especially roasted (if you can't tell by now, I LOVE roasted nuts)!
Maybe there will not be a pecan pie for Thanksgiving this year, or maybe you will want to splurge. The best price I found in the area last week was at Walmart, where the price per pound for pecans was $8.98 (these were bagged pecans). With many nuts priced higher, it makes me wish that I had stocked my freezer full of bags of nuts several months ago!
