Walnuts aren't nuts.
Pecans aren't nuts.
Macadamias aren't nuts.
Brazil nuts aren't nuts.
Pistachios aren't nuts.
Cashews aren't nuts.
Almonds aren't nuts either.
None of these are nuts in the botanical sense, but all, including peanuts are nuts in the culinary sense.
If peanuts bother you, don't eat them. But I have to pipe in because so many people harp on "peanuts aren't nuts" while they ignore the fact that perhaps the only true nuts they have ever eaten are Hazelnuts (Filberts) and Chestnuts.
Egg yolks make my joints ache, so I don't eat them. We all have our own personal issues.
