Pecans. The all-American nut that conjures up images of holiday pies and the American South! For those of you who are into fruit and nut trivia, you may be interested in knowing that Pecans originated as a wild species that were found mainly throughout the American South and south central regions and Mexico and is the only commercial tree nut that’s native to the United States. And they’re not just grown in the South. That’s right, if you have the pleasure of visiting California’s Southern San Joaquin Valley, you’ll have the chance to see commercial orchards of these beautiful, healthful nuts.
Luckily, you can enjoy Pecans every day and it doesn’t need to be in a holiday pie, though we have to say that’s a mighty fine way to enjoy them on occasion. When you bite into the meat of a Pecan, the flavor might make you think of a sugar-laden treat. Yes, they’re great in desserts, but scientists tell us that this honestly sweet nut may actually be linked to reduced risk of obesity and type 2 diabetes.
