Mormons Deep Into Nuts

Sadly, that is not a filthy comment about Mormons being obsessed with testicles. It is true. Mormons own the Berberian Nut Company. They are the nation's second largest producer of walnuts and they are in everything.

Consumers may not be immediately familiar with Berberian walnuts, but chances are you've eaten them if you've ever had a candy made by See's, a baked good from Hostess or Baker's Inn, or a dessert topping produced by Smucker's. Those are just some of Berberian's national customers.

Estimated to be about one-tenth the size of Stockton-based Diamond Foods, the world's largest walnut processor, Berberian ships out an average of one 40,000-pound truckload of walnuts every two days. Several U.S. grocers sell its 1-pound bags of California Shelled Walnuts, and Australian bakers use its 5-kilogram boxes under the Scalzo Food Mfg. name. It also ships to Japan, Europe and other regions of the world.

Stop the terrible gay hating walnuts!!! Um. Yeah. So, you know, don't eat walnuts or something.

I've gone insane.
