More on Pine Nuts and Pine Mouth

Apparently it wasn't just the pine nuts in Roni-Sue's Bacon Buttercrunch that ruined my taste buds for a few days. According to the Daily Mail, more and more people are being left with a bitter, metallic taste after eating pine nuts. There's even a name for the strange affliction: "pine mouth." From now on, I'll only make pesto with walnuts, thank you very much.
