Macadamia Nuts

Jumpy

Anyone know anywhere to get macadamias in Limerick?
I have been hunting for ages.

Harlan Pepper:

I used to be able to name every nut that there was. And it used to drive my mother crazy, because she used to say, "Harlan Pepper, if you don't stop naming nuts," and the joke was that we lived in Pine Nut, and I think that's what put it in my mind at that point. So she would hear me in the other room, and she'd just start yelling. I'd say, "Peanut. Hazelnut. Cashew nut. Macadamia nut." That was the one that would send her into going crazy. She'd say, "Would you stop naming nuts!" And Hubert used to be able to make the sound, he couldn't talk, but he'd go "rrrawr rrawr" and that sounded like Macadamia nut. Pine nut, which is a nut, but it's also the name of a town. Pistachio nut. Red pistachio nut. Natural, all natural white pistachio nut.

So can you answer the OPs question or not?

At a guess I would say try a Health Food store.

And to further sweeten your weekend, check out Tesco for the half price (around Euro 3 something instead of the usual horrific 6 something) Ben and Jerry's Chocolate with Macademia nut icecream!

Heh, I am getting the macadamias to be healthy, not to add a bucketload of sugar as well

Sugar? What sugar? It's ice and cream, no?
