Yes, raw nuts are a good source of protein. Eat them in moderation though, because they are also high in fat.

If you keep them out of a air lock container they can go bad in 1-2 months.

Traditionally, cashews are in the middle of the range amongst treenuts - close to almonds and pistachios - probably the most expensive nut(historical average) is macadamia..

Like all other commodities, main factor for Nut prices is the crop size - so price ranking of each nut changes from time to time

The force of resistance is greater against a walnut shell than the palm of your hand that is much softer.

Although there are probably some people with enough strength in their hand to break a walnut shell by squeezing it alone. Its because the palm is soft and the shells are hard. so more power can be applied to one side of each walnut when they are squeezed together

walnuts are a very famous but that's hard to say because there r allot of different nuts in the would so u would have to just go with your instinct

my favorite nut is a pecan

The peanut, actually a legume (type of bean) is worlwide the most popular or widely-used nut-like seed. Many other seeds or fruits commonly called nuts, or considered to be nuts for culinary purposes, are not true nuts in the botanical sense, so it seems reasonable to consider the peanut an appropriate answer to this question.

Roasting any type of nut tends to intensify the flavor.

I think that a type of nut is either a walnut, or peanut because a walnut is the biggest of them all and a peanut is as small as a seed.

well since type of nuts are usually in energy bags they should be ok

Consumers buy food from grocery stores for a retail price. Stores buy food from wholesale suppliers at a lower price and wholesalers buy produce, meat, nuts, etc. from growers at an even lower price. The price for raw food commodities depends on the available supply and demand as well as agricultural, political and other factors. For a particular area this information can be obtained by calling wholesale suppliers and asking for their prices, or you can try asking a retail grocery buyer.

Rotten nuts can make people sick.

No. Acorns are the seeds from an oak tree. Chestnuts refer to either the tree itself, or seeds from the chestnut tree.

Lutein is what makes pistachios green.

It is NOT chlorophyll. Pistachios are not technically a nut. rather they are a fruit. the "shell" of the pistachio is more akin to a banana peel. Chlorophyll is uses sunlight to make energy for the plant, so it would need to be in the shell to provide any value. There is a red covering inside the shell and before the kernal. When roasted this covering contracts. That is the little brownish stuff that falls out when you open it.

Lutein is actually used to inhibit the energy production in plants, by interfering with chlorophyll. I'm not sure why it is in the kernal. If I were to bet, I would hypothesize that it is to slow the decay after the fruit has fallen.
