This is the first post I've ever heard that peanuts can be poisonous if overeaten, but I know that most tree nuts are. Almonds and Brazil Nuts are high in selenium and can straight up kill you. As few as 6 Brazil Nuts may be enough. Cashews are also slightly poisonous because the fruit they come from is.

One standard jar is 1 pound so she is claiming 1-2 jars per week. That is not unreasonable and I find it highly unlikely it was what destroyed her health. I eat about 1 jar per week.

I noticed significant improvement in my bowel health after stopping eating nuts. They were my go to healthy snack but I don't really eat tree nuts at all anymore. You're only supposed to have like 2 or 3 of them at time anyway, and that's pretty much impossible to satisfy a craving. Peanuts however have nothing to do with tree nuts. They are legumes. I still eat peanut butter and eat about a pound a week.

Something doesn't add up to me. That is not a ridiculous amount of peanut butter for one week. We would hear about this more than some random reddit post if it was real.

A pound is like a small tub. If it is a staple of your diet, you will easily eat that over a whole week. 7 days.

So they decided to vote for the anti-union capitalist.

Oh yeah. I forget sometimes that that was the most expensive shitpost of all time.

Based. I hope they didn't get fired.

They are 20 years old at this point but the original Guild Wars was full of pop culture references.

Hard to make a generalization from this one asshole who dropped the bag. How many people have been to the caverns and not destroyed the ecosystem?

Lowest common denominator, tragedy of the commons, etc.
