Can you tell if your nuts are rancid? I usually go by the smell.

The best way to describe the odor is that spoiled nuts smell like paint.
It's a distinct and unpleasant odor. Animals who enjoy these tasty treats also utilize their olfactory senses to distinguish whether their nuts have gone bad.
Remember to practice food safety and enjoy your nuts before their shelf life has expired

  • Yeah, anything after a couple of good slappings around per day without a shower gets pretty rank. xD

    Try boiling them. It takes very little effort, yet it sanitizes them giving them a smooth, sheen

    In New Hampshire, we call that an hors d'oeuvres. It goes well with duck sauce

  • Just like a fine expensive stinky cheese, I often enjoy the smell of rancid nuts.  Especially the ones you serve when we party.  I think you should package that smell of yours you are referring to.  I've always quite fancied it.

    I cannot tell.  There is a reason.  I have a RANCID NUT in Washington DC who stinks so rotten, I cannot smell any other rancid nuts.

    He is the BIGGEST and SMELLIEST NUT ever to be elected.  The stench can be smelled all the way to Denmark.

    LOL you have to admit, i do have a huge repertoire for so small a subject.  I do have a  plethora of ideas regarding Donald.  I own it.  

    I'm famous.  There are sites with haters of ME.  LOL  They are infuriated with how RUDE  I AM.  I am so proud. They are all Trump based deplorables who think I am so stupid.  LOL  I love it.

    I did an experiment with my nut a few years ago. I exposed them to the element for a few months and the did not become rancid. For some reason, the local squirrels wouldn't eat them.

    Ele, if you can't get a squirrel to nibble on your nuts, then let's face it, you're nose blind to the stank.
