5. They are a little on the salty side
but all in all...not bad, I'd give them a 5 on a scale of 1-10 with 1 being dog poop and 10 being the best thing you ever ate! (hopefully 1 and 10 aren't the same for you :P )

10. Yes!! Those are one of my favorite snack foods! I just picked
up a new can after work at Target among some other purchases as I had developed another craving for them. I don't think the wasabi coating is really overwhelming - if you really want wasabi overload, get some sushi and put a nice coating of the paste on one of your pieces of nigiri. Overdo it just a little, and you'll be looking for a garden hose for your tongue!

36. Now you made me check it out on Wikipedia!
Almonds just happen to be California's largest food export - who knew that!

The sigline is one of those classic "funny because it's true in a twisted way", and came from one of the characters (Kelly) on NBC's "The Office"...

We just hope he'll sing a wide selection of tunes from various shows for us while he trashes our things.

19. I love almonds, but Blue Diamond is on my stink list at the moment...
Blue Diamond has been found guilty of breaking numerous laws in an effort to deny its workers their basic human right to join a union.

For the past two-and-a-half years, the Blue Diamond Organizing Committee has been trying to bring the 600-plus workers at the Sacramento plant into the ILWU. Blue Diamond responded with an aggressive anti-union campaign that made it a poster child for the need to pass the Employee Free Choice Act. In March 2006, a National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) administrative law judge found the company guilty of more than 20 labor law violations, including the firings of two union supporters. Blue Diamond settled the cases by agreeing to reinstate the two. It wasn’t complying with an order because the settlement closed the case without there being an order. It faced a second four-day hearing for illegal firings and discipline in January 2007.

http://www.ilwu.org/organize/bluediamondworkers.cfm

Oh, wait, this is the lounge and I promised to lighten up, and besides, my wife wasn't aware of the labor problems and bought a small can of Blue Diamond BBQ almonds for me. I demanded she take it back to the store...NOT! ;)

Good at first. We over indulge. Keep on cause they USED to be SOOOOoooo good, but they're making us sick. But they used to be Sooooooo good, but they're making us :puke: but I used to really love those things, and I can't understand why they're making me sick. Or why I have these great big red pustules and blue and purple and green blisters all over my body or why I'm seeing spots or . . .
