Walnuts taste bitter and wrong to me. What do they taste like to other people?

Nutty, a little papery, with a tinge of bitter and a tendency to suck the moisture out of my mouth. It doesn't really sounds like it from that description, but I like 'em.

I don't know that I can describe what they taste like but if they have gone bad they are bitter and, even on good ones, the skin can be a bit bitter. But aside from that I love them. um...they taste...good? Nutty (obviously) but not rich and smooth like a cashew or a peanut. It's a brighter, sharper taste than that. dag. this is too hard!

Yeah, I love walnuts too and was trying to figure out how to describe the taste, and gave up.

Owen approves of the wee piglet. But he didn't know what the beer was. He said "MILK!"

Um, Mother's Milk, maybe.

Hmm. Interesting. I mean, my reaction to walnuts is pretty much, "AUGH. Walnut! Get it out of my mouth!" It makes me so sad when people put it on dessert.

And now I am distracted from my boredom because I have discovered wank.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

What fandom is wanking this lovely morn?

Walnuts can be somewhat bitter to me, but what I really dislike is their texture and their propensity to get stuck in my teeth.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Do people generally hate all nuts, or just some nuts? I have never met a nuts I absolutely loathe, but thinking back over the nut-haters I have known, many of them seemed perfectly okay with, like, peanut butter and peanuts in the hand. They just hated the idea of happening upon a nut where it was not specifically requested.

(Not counting allergic people.)

I am a fan of hazelnuts in all formats, including Dunkies coffee. Walnuts are okay, but almonds are better.

bitter and wrong. sometimes a bit tangy, but not in a good way. I dont like them, and will substitute pecans (pronounced peh-CAHN) in recipes.
