How to Eat like a King (Part 1 of an ongoing series)

I spend a ridiculous amount of money on groceries. They are my one true splurge.

Take, for example, today's How to Eat like a King entry. US $15.00 almond butter.

FIFTEEN DOLLARS FOR ALMOND BUTTER????

Yes.

This is no ordinary almond butter, kids. I mean, yeah, it's the most expensive kind of nut butter you can purchase, but it's worth it. And it contains only 100% raw, unblanched almonds. THIS IS AN IMPORTANT FEATURE, raw, not roasted. I will sometimes eat it straight out of the jar. It tastes like almond cookies and I do not know what the secret is! Where does the sweetness come from??

Aside from taste, there are also a variety of beneficial features of eating raw almond butter. For one, most vitamins get burned off when almonds are roasted. Two, it's macrobiotic this way. Three, you will thank me when you taste it.

Mmmmmm, almondy

Enjoy!
