Hello, An unexpected retirement check at Christmas prompted this order from you. I am undergoing a lifestyle change using Fuhrman's "Eat to live" guidelines, forgoing milk and dairy and largley meatless and access to a college fitness program for seniors. In that paradigm "walnuts are the new bacon." The natural taste of these walnuts is superb. My wife tells me, with this quantity, I shall have to vacuum pack small amounts, so they will not turn rancid in time. That's todays' priority. Thank you for providing a healthy product. Merry Christmas, Gene S. C./L.O.,C. Ped. (ret.) Las vegas, New Mexico
