Eating is very enjoyable, well we all love eating but it also depends on what we are eating. Well, when I was young around ten years, we were being advised on how to eat the peanut nuts. I never knew the truth, or it was selfish , but our elders were telling us to eat only five nuts, are just enough for our body, all the rest are just waste. The statement really have a meaning but since we loved nuts especially the boiled ones, we could just eat the whole plate. Have you ever been told such a thig, about nuts?

No, I’ve never heard that before. We ate nuts until the bowl was empty.

@thebos I have not had any in a long time because they are rather expensive for a very little amount and the most expensive are my favorite pistachio nuts,

No, our elders never told us things like that. We just shared until everyone had as many as they wanted. I guess the people who told you that just didn’t want any one person to eat them all.
