Talk:List of culinary nuts

Move
Why were the removed ? Also, other nuts not mentioned are: Macrozamia communis, Macrozamia miquellii, Macrozamia spiralis, Endiandra palmerstonii, Hicksbeachia pinnatifolia, Pygeum turneratum, Sterculia quadrifida, Terminalia grandiflora —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.182.173.51 (talk) 18:38, 12 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Bush cashew nut
 * Queensland almond
 * Yellow walnut


 * Bush cashew nut is listed under Australian cashew nut to align with the linked referenced article.
 * Queensland almond, Yellow nut - no link or source was provided to show that these are culinary nuts
 * Hicksbeachia pinnatifolia is listed under Red Bopple Nut
 * The Macrozamia species are grouped as Burawang Nuts under the subtitle "Nut-like gymnosperm seeds"
 * Any new entries should cite a reference, or link to a referenced article that demonstrates that the entry qualifies to be on this list.--Melburnian (talk) 09:14, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

Reorganization and cleanup
I've reorganized and cleaned up the article. In the process, I noticed that the classification of a few of the culinary nuts in the article are either absent or questionable. I've marked the section containing them. Would someone who's more knowledgeable please take a look? Thanks! Waitak (talk) 23:10, 18 November 2011 (UTC)


 * Note: This has been resolved, thanks to participation by some plants-savy editors. Waitak (talk) 18:21, 27 November 2011 (UTC)

Biblical Disagreement
Pistachio lists three types of nuts that are present in the Bible, whereas this article only points to two. The Pistachio article lacks a reference but some research points to this being a difference of translation -- Song of Solomon 6:11 is sometimes translated to refer to walnuts specifically, and in other cases is just "nuts." Not sure how this ought to be resolved. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.33.34.221 (talk) 06:43, 9 March 2013 (UTC)

Drupes and seeds
This is a great article-- just the other day I was wondering about the confusion/distinction between hazelnuts and filberts, so I appreciate that answer here! Thanks for your work on this Waitak-- nice model for an annotated list.

I think defining a drupe as a "fleshy fruit" leaves it a little unclear that the part considered the "culinary nut" is the actual seed inside. Simple fix: "Some of these seeds are considered culinary nuts as well." Also I'm not sure why--or how--you should distinguish the "nut-like drupe seeds" from the "nut-like angiosperm seeds"... Is there anything on the former list that isn't an angiosperm? Maybe the drupe part could be a subsection of "nut-like angiosperm seeds"??

Lastly, my understanding was (also back in the Pleistocene) that cashew was an aril attached, I guess, to a drupe fruit, but actually kind of a whole different animal. Er, "nut". But then, the memory ain't what it once was. They certainly look like seeds. Araucana (talk) 22:43, 3 December 2011 (UTC)


 * I'd be absolutely delight to have more input into what categories these things belong in. I've certainly appreciated the input from more plant-savvy editors to date, but the article definitely would benefit from more.
 * While I'm here, maybe you'd consider voting for this as a featured list? The discussion is about a week in at this point. Waitak (talk) 23:02, 3 December 2011 (UTC)


 * On my way as you spoke, and now done. At least, I contributed to the discussion; is there something else I should do? Araucana (talk) 23:18, 3 December 2011 (UTC)


 * I think the categorisation should be 1a) nuts 1b) nutlets 2a) kernels of drupes 2b) kernels of drupelets 3) seeds Lavateraguy (talk) 19:28, 9 December 2011 (UTC)

Images
I just looked at the gallery, and thought a nice addition would be a Brazil nut in its other "shell"-- and there is one at Brazilnut. Araucana (talk) 23:24, 3 December 2011 (UTC)

See also Araucaria angustifolia and especially the photo of the basket of cones. Araucana (talk) 23:57, 3 December 2011 (UTC)


 * Thanks! I've added a couple of images, and an entry for Araucaria angustifolia. Waitak (talk) 00:18, 4 December 2011 (UTC)
