Processed vegetable oils ie, canola, corn, etc. when consumed with gluten foods, is what causes plaque build up in arteries! Beef should be cooked with beef fat, pork with lard, chicken and fish, cook in olive oil. The more processed something is the worse it is on your body.

The world's first commercially grown macadamia tree was grown from seed in 1858. It's still growing today in the City Botanic Gardens of Brisbane, Queensland.

They were called bush nuts when I was a kid in Northern NSW. We also smashed them on the concrete with a hammer, extremely hard to crack!

Stavrohound, They also grow in California. I lived in San Diego 30 yrs ago and there was still some commercial orchards there.

Player #3617864, Pardon the pun, but macadamias are a hard nut to crack. They require special gadgets to open them.And thus the high cost

I was lucky enough as a child to live for a time at my step grandmothers 15 acre ranch that had an amazing orchard that included a macadamia nut tree. SOOOOO DELICIOUS!!!!

Stavrohound, proteacea are in Australia and Africa. my grandfather had a fabulous tree. and in the day we would take as MANY NUTS home as possible. it was before fancy nutcrackers. but any cement floor with a small shallow in it was all we needed. with little fingers and a hammer, we would be cracking those nuts like there was no tomorrow.
