Pine nuts

Featured Replies

Sizzler in Khon Kaen always has pine nuts at it's salad bar.
Does anyone know where to buy genuine pine nuts ?    ( Not "pine nut flavour" as one supplier called its stock.

I am vegan for years and would like to use pine nuts in the mixed salad I eat daily and prefer not to use "salted" products such as sunflower seeds etc.

Most likely from China and can give you "Pine Mouth".

“Pine Mouth” is a condition that occurs a few days after eating a specific type of Chinese pine nut. This is suspected to be the Pinus armandii species from the Chinese white pine. It is not known if the condition is caused by the pine nut itself or the chemicals used in the extraction process.

Within about 48 hours of eating these pine nuts, you get a long-lasting foul bitter taste in your mouth for several days or weeks. It affects everything you eat and drink.

In 2013, the Journal of Food and Chemical Toxicology published findings of their tests on pine nuts following complaints in the USA about ‘Pine Mouth Syndrome’. They found “no clear evidence of an underlying medical cause or common trigger” other than the correlation with the consumption of the ChinesePinus armandii species.

OP - Many thanks for the warning.
