N-word toes. Pathetic attempt at humor from the old heathens, back in the day.

Brazil nuts! Harder than hell to crack open.

They said “Leave me alone. Can’t you see I’ve been dead for 20 years!?”

I call them selenium poisoning.
1 oz has more than 1000% of the daily recommended intake of Selenium, and you shouldn’t eat more than 5 per day. Which sucks, because I love them.
That said they also promote healthy thyroids, assuming you don’t overdose on them.

Castanhas do Pará or Brazil nuts

Real talk, I’m millennial and literally did not know the real name for these until I was 30 and realized *very suddenly* right before I was going to offer some to a black coworker. Barely avoided an incident

My dad definitely called them toes.

This is how I found out how very racist my Grandma is. She offered around a bowl of mixed nuts and I declined.
“Are you sure?” she asked, the proceeded to name every type of but I’m the bowl. When she got to these, she called them “n###er nuts” and then, immediately embarrassed, said, “I mean “n###er toes” as if that was somehow better.
They’re *that* sort of Christian on that side of the family, hating everyone but Jesus. Haven’t talked to her in years.

My family has some racism, but even as I’m about to turn 50 this is the first time I’ve heard them called anything other than Brazil nuts.

For those wondering there’s an older term. People called them Ni**** Toes back in the day. I didn’t believe it until I asked an older coworker today.

Some of them taste great, and some taste awful. I’ll eat them until I get a couple bad ones back to back.

Nope. My grandma still calls them something entirely inappropriate.

Y’all are just young ‘uns if you never experienced this. I was 6 before I knew what the real name for these was. I’m 65 now. I know Mom’s side was racist, Dad’s side was 1st generation from Norway where there weren’t exactly a lot of blacks.

N***er toes.
Don’t ask

My grandma once asked me what I called them. I looked at the box and said “Brazilian nuts I guess”. She got quiet and said her parents taught her to called them something else but she will start using Brazilian nuts.

At my first job at a grocery store when I was 16, shortly after moving to the south from NY, an old co-worker must have recognized my obvious Yankee accent and with a big smile on his face, asked me what they were called. I said, “Brazil nuts?” He told me and then laughed hysterically with his big stupid beard at the look on my face. I just couldn’t believe what he said.
It was the first time I ever heard someone say that word out loud. Unfortunately, it wouldn’t be the last time.

My grandfather called them “ninja” toes without batting an eye, no matter where we were.
