Chazz: Stupid walnuts! The amount of effort you have to put in just to get a bit of nut out is crazy! Hardly worth it, don't you think?
Poncho: I'm a dog. I'd drill to the center of the earth and jump-start the core for a piece of food.
Maybe the nutcracker on the table didn’t work.Maybe I’m specially challenged this morning but I can’t tell what he’s using on the nut. Looks like a cross between a microphone and a flashlight.
Bah! Walnuts are the easiest ones to crack! (Peanuts don’t count, being legumes) You can even crack them open with your hands. But just try it with a Brazil nut or filbert (hazelnut). Besides, he’s got a nut-cracker!

Maybe quicker than that if it turned out to be jerky bits, eh Poncho?

Y’know, walnuts are small enough that they can be swallowed hole, if necessary. Just don’t expect to enjoy it when they come back out again.

Hey Poncho, I know what you can get Chaz for his birthday: a nutcracker.

I prefer a small to medium bench vise. Excellent force multiplier.

Chaz should use his head. It’s solid cement.

English walnuts easy. American walnuts not so easy.

My mother used to crack black walnuts in the back yard. Set them on a flat rock and hit them with a hammer.

The only type that I’ve never been able to crack in my hand is the coconut.
