If I were BBQing at -29C I would need a grill with a lid big enough for
me to climb in with the food.

We called them filberts in Houston when I was a kid in the '60s
(although I believe I knew at the time they were also known as
hazelnuts) but over time they became hazelnuts. I haven't heard them
called or called them filberts myself for many years.

My wife had filbert trees at her home in Virginia. She said that they used to have piles of the nuts in her garage. The used to jump on the piles and play in them. This was 100% all-natural ball pits before there was ball pits.
 
She called them "filberts" because that's what the Americans called these nuts back in the old days. "Hazelnuts" is the classier, European name, for the unpopular filbert. The move to change the name for marketing purposes is a deliberate and smart one.

By coincidence, a question asked just a minute ago on Cash Cab was
about the other name for a Filbert.
 
I was going to say that I have always known they were the same, but then
I reached way far back to my childhood and bags of assorted nuts in the
shell. There were walnuts, pecans, Brazil nuts, and filberts. They
also had chocolate bars with crushed filberts. Somewhere along the way
they started calling them hazel nuts.

Well, it comes down to religion. Timely to come up with that today.
 
https://www.seriouseats.com/2012/08/how-come-hazelnuts-are-also-called-filberts.html
 
Hazelnuts are a staple in European confections and baked goods, as well
as an ingredient in Fererro's popular Nutella spread. But hazelnuts have
another popular name—filberts. How did that happen?
 
The most widely believed story explaining this second name is steeped in
religion. The feast day of St. Philbert, a French saint, falls on August
20th. That also happens to be peak harvest time for hazelnuts, which
traditionally mature in late August. So people started applying the
saint's name to the nuts that were in season on his feast day. Hazelnuts
have even more aliases in the US: some people call them cob nuts, and
still others simply call them hazels.
 
Oregon grows 98% of hazelnuts produced in the US—but only a fraction of
the world's supply of hazelnuts are grown here; the vast majority of
hazelnuts are grown in Turkey, Spain, and Italy.

What, did you think they were illegal? And how would you know they
wrre "trerpackaged"? dn why should we care about either?
 
They have always been for sale, and will always be for sale. Even
on your little planet.

I tried recently to buy sprouts. I was told at Albertsons they didn't
carry them anymore because of cases of food poisoning in sprouts some
years ago. I gave up looking in my city but Julie just said she got
them at a store we have here.

You missed the point. Wealthy people don't carry a credit card
balance. I charge everything I can on my three credit cards and I have
almost a million airline miles banked between them. When the payment is
due, they are on auto-pay for the full statement balance so I don't have
to write any checks.

They should be. I know too many people who carry no balance and have
regular credit cards with zero rewards. It doesn't make sense.

It's up to politicians to close the loopholes that the corporations
are using.
 
Starbucks Netherlands made a big profit. But they said that the profit
was equal to what they had to pay Starbucks UK for the use of their
recipes. Profit zero, no taxes paid. Starbucks UK didn't have to pay
taxes over profit made on their recipes. That's tax exempt there. No
taxes paid.
 
Just an example.

I need a vertical storage system that can be rotated to present the stuff
that I need when I need it. I got a toaster oven, and air fryer, a
rotisserie, and a Vitamix, that's in need of storage and easy accessibility.
