They used to use a heavy duty chemical on Walnuts. It always gave me a sore throat and made me ill. In fact, I wasn't able to eat any nuts because of the chemicals and sprays. I thought it was the nuts that made me ill. A few years ago, I tried nuts with few or no chemicals. I was so surprised that I could eat almonds, cashews, pistachios and peanuts with no trouble. I still get a mild reaction from pecans and walnuts though so I avoid them. I have had good luck with a company called Aurora Naturals in Orange Connecticut. Pricey but easy to digest. It is so weird to be able to eat almonds!
