Adam: Laura! I just found out that the peanut is not an actual nut! Laura: I already knew that. Adam: You did? Why didn't you tell me? Laura: Well, I didn't want to ruin it for you. But while we're on the subject... Adam: Oh, no, there's more? Laura: The almond, the pine nut, the cashew... None of them are nuts. Adam: You have got to be kidding me. This is preposterous! Why can't a nut just be a nut?? Laura... Why is your eye twitching? Laura: Too easy. Too easy. Too easy.
I beg to differ on the cashew. Almonds, they are indeed related to the apricot, peanuts are legumes. I have a deathly allergic reaction to TREE nuts, which includes cashews, walnuts, Brazil nuts.
