The versatile Brazil Nut (fire starting)

[Mistwalker]

You guys have way too much will power. Those nuts wouldn't survive 3 s in my hands.

Ha, I kept a bag of them in my shoulder bag in the truck for three weeks once...trying to wait till I was out in the woods and see if Brazil nut crumbs would ignite with sparks from a fire steel. When I finally got the chance to try I was three miles in the woods, gathered everything up and was all set to give it a go and opened it only to find not one single brazil nut. I had almost eaten them several times but kept telling myself no as I had a plan for them...that really sucked lol.
