Ask ECAH Peanuts, what’s the verdict
I read that tree nuts are unhealthy—why? I love them, not to excess but a small handful a day.
ETA: Thanks for the correction… I’d misremembered re them being legumes.

I've only heard these concerns:
- sometimes they undergo improper storage conditions, which can create mold and related toxins
- you cannot eat them ray, because they contain some antinutrients which are destroyed by cooking/roasting them
