Brazil Nuts

On our walk in the Amazon jungle today we came across Brazil nut trees. We were able to crack open some of the fruit then crack open the enclosed nutshells and munch away on the nuts.

@kjarn Oh, I know and they're hard to get here now.

How good is this. Definitely fresh

They don't come any fresher, lovely close up.

Ooo, I had no idea that's what they looked like in their natural form. Coolio!

I had no idea they looked like that when they came of the tree. Great shot

How interesting that they are inside a bigger shell...I had no idea

No idea that grew like that! Thanks for learning me!!!
