Brazil Nuts

[n2ize]

Who here loves Brazil nuts.

[NA4BH]

Brazilian women?

[kb2vxa]

Brazilian women don't have Brazil nuts... well... most of them don't.

They are good, but not politically correct

[WØTKX]

Only when called by the politically incorrect nickname. To steal from a Kevin Spacey character, "the toes knows".

They are tasty, but spoil faster than most nuts.

Brazilian women are beautiful. Wax on, wax off. Spent a week in Sao Paulo, didn't want to leave.

Where Did They Get Their Nickname?

Between 1525 and 1866, in the entire history of the slave trade to the New World, according to the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade Database, 12.5 million Africans were shipped to the New World. 10.7 million survived the dreaded Middle Passage, disembarking in North America, the Caribbean and South America.

And how many of these 10.7 million Africans were shipped directly to North America? Only about 388,000. That's right: a tiny percentage.

In fact, the overwhelming percentage of the African slaves were shipped directly to the Caribbean and South America; Brazil received 4.86 million Africans alone! (http://www.theroot.com/articles/history/2012/10/how_many_slaves_came_to_america_fact_vs_fiction.ht ml)


There were a lot a slaves working on plantations in Brazil.

So I told this blonde that 17 Brazilian coal miners were killed when the mine collapsed to which she replied, "How many zeroes are in a Brazilian?"

I remember him calling people a pineapple too. Seemed like a funny insult back in the day.

Mmmmmm...Brazil nuts... they have to be fresh - I think the ones we get up here are mostly kept in vaults somewhere for a few years.

Shelling them is very easy if you put them in water and microwave it for a couple minutes. The shells soften and just peel off.
