People are concerned about using apples that have fallen to the ground.
What about using nuts?  We collect  hickory nuts, of course, for human
consumption and I've wondered how to be sure they were safe to eat.  
Any
ideas?

    
The issue with cider is probably not the few bacteria that actually 
stick to the piece of fruit, it's the colony that they spawn in the 
sweet wet juice.  I doubt much grows on nuts between when you pick them 
off the ground and when you eat them, and besides, you usually eat the 
inside, not the shell.

I find it hard to imagine that e-coli on nuts is a serious problem, 
unless you eat one covered in poo.  :)

Well, maybe not poo, but just general dirt from who knows what.   And then you need to get them opened, all the while handling all parts.
