The nuts are actually tasty (though a little on the bland side) and the
have the advantage of being fairly soft when fresh or freshly thawed
out. This means that they can give a somewhat meaty texture to
stir-fries and the like. As pointed out, they have the reputation of
having side effects when too many are eaten but that hasn't been a
problem the few times that I've eaten them. Also, the nut does not smell
like the flesh. In fact, if properly cleaned, the nut shell should have
only a minimal odor to it.
