BRAZIL NUTS

Brazil nuts grow in tropical South America inside hard, woody coconut-sized shells that weigh about 5 pounds each and contain 15 to 25 nuts.

There are very few commercial plantations in South America - most of the nuts are still harvested from the wild. Attempts to cultivate the tree outside the Amazon area have failed. Brazil nuts have a high oil content and are susceptible to rancidity.
