Walnuts. Elegant, dignified, make cool boats for the bathroom sink.

Peanuts. That is my main type of nut to eat. I would put cashews but I haven't had one in years.~Jason
I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."

Macadamia nuts. God those things are good, damn expensive too. A family friend worked for the airlines and would bring them back from Hawaii all the time when I was younger, but he retired and I rarely get to eat them these days.

I suppose I like fresh pistachios just as much as fresh roasted peanuts.

Not much in to the others. But carmalized pecans make a great garnish for salad. Hmmmm....yum!

Almonds are were it's at, my friends. Especially toasted and/or covered in chocolate. Mmmm! Pecans follow at close second. There are few things that can beat homemade chocolate pecan turtles.

Cashews. Just because.

After all, this is completely straightforward. What could possibly go wrong?

THIS LOOKS LIKE A JOB FOR EMERGENCY PANTS!

I have no real preference save macadamias (last time I had them, I damn near died... of course, that was 16 years ago.)

Pecan pie is good, cashews are nice in stir-fries, walnuts are good for general baking...

I remember Nobby's Nuts, but I must have repressed the memory of watching the ads.

These are by far the nicest nuts...and those who disagree...have never tried them...but I am rarely able to get my hands on them...so have to settle for cashews...which I love as well :D
