The breeders were concerned about the seeds of the crosses they were making. The sweet kernel ones had to be put in something like wire mesh when they sowed them because otherwise the squirrels would eat them.

I guess you'd have a double batch of trouble if the squirrels eat the fruit and also the kernels.
