26-Nuts and not nuts

[FMP-field: image]

Help, I'm going nuts staring at this computer screen! Did you ever feel that way?

Actually, a lot of things that people call "nuts" are botanically not nuts at all, such as almonds, Brazil nuts, cashews, coconuts, peanuts, pecans, pistachios, and walnuts.

The only true nuts in this photograph are the hazelnuts and chestnuts.
