Can You Handle the Death Nut Challenge?

Ah, the Death Nut Challenge: the ultimate test of hot nuts bravery. Many have begun the quest, but few have reached the summit of Level 5. Do you think that you could be one of the proud few? Then proceed with caution, my brave friend, and may you find success in your daring and delicious adventure. 

Caution: Hot Nuts 

Before you move further, however, remember that we are very serious about the Death Nut Challenge. When we say that these are some hot nuts, we mean it. So keep these hot nuts far away from children, the elderly, people who are sensitive to spicy foods, and people who are allergic to peanuts. 

Now, are you ready? Then let’s proceed. 

Level One 

You start your challenge with level one. These nuts are infused with ghost peppers and Carolina Reaper powder. At this point, some people realize just what they’ve gotten themselves into. The Death Nut Challenge is bringing the heat, and you’re only on level one. You can do this. 

Level Two

Having experienced level one, you’re now mentally prepared for what level two will bring. This next level kicks it up a notch with scorpion butch T peppers and more Carolina Reaper powder. “It’s just a few peanuts,” you think to yourself as you chug several glasses of water. Hint: try eating a piece of bread to quench the heat instead. It helps. 

Level Three

A lot of people give up at this point, which, to be completely honest, is understandable. Level three nuts add some flavor with Carolina Reaper peppers, Carolina Reaper powder, and Chocolate Bhutla. The Chocolate Bhutla provides a nice change of pace. It may even distract you from the fact that you’ve started sweating profusely. 

Level Four

Congratulations on making it this far, O Brave One. Now comes a true test of hot nut fortitude. You have not yet reached the Final Nut, but you’re getting close with some Carolina Reaper peppers, 7 Pot Brain Stain, and Carolina Reaper powder. Now take some deep breaths, eat some more bread, and prepare yourself for the final level. 

The Death Nuts 

You’ve now reached the pinnacle. The top level. The hot nut to end all hot nuts. Are you ready? With Pepper-X, Carolina Reaper peppers, Moruga Scorpion peppers, and Carolina Reaper powder, these hot nuts are what all hot nuts want to be when they grow up. If you decide to brave the death nuts, your eyes will water, and you might just have clear sinuses for the next week. 

Try My Nuts 

No matter how far you go in the Death Nut Challenge, we applaud you. It’s better to have tried a nut and collapsed into a bucket of water than to have never tried a nut at all. If you’re ready to try the Death Nut Challenge for yourself, start by visiting this page. Good luck.

Gourmet Mixed Nuts: For When You're Too Fancy For Regular Nuts

  Mirror mirror on the wall Who’s the Nuttiest of them all? Not to boast or anything, but have you tried My Nuts ? No? Let’s look at the evidence. Do you look out the window to see the neighbors headed your way and yell, “Quick, hurry - hide the nuts”? Do you secretly salivate to discover uneaten nuts at the wedding? Perhaps you should have worn deeper pockets. Let’s hope they don’t think it’s you when you hear the announcement “Warning! Person headed toward restroom with stolen nuts.” Are you tempted to do a nose dive into the bowl? Do you teeter-totter back and forth, edging ever so close to the nuts, only to find you’ve taken the plunge? Do you brag about your diet while secretly salivating at the sight of the chocolate-covered peanuts? Do you watch your guests chomping away at the dwindling supply while secretly wishing they would drop dead? Then you, friend, might just be a nutcase. Now, there’s nothing wrong with being a nutcase. Or eating a nut case, or a case of nuts, which...

Try My Nuts from the Start

W hy  Try My Nuts ? It’s the Outer Banks experience. Way back in 1999, we started our first store in Corolla, NC. That’s where the Corolla wild horses roam. If you’ve never seen them, it’s difficult for someone else to describe the experience. You just have to be there, feeling the wind and the ocean and the beach and watching wild horses run free. It’s a good feeling. Being a fun-loving family, we wanted to extend that feeling of freedom we felt at the OBX. So, we took a chance and started our first beach store with only 600 square feet of retail space and no idea which way the wind would blow. Well, that summer we were a hit. And then it didn’t stop but kept on going year-round. We quickly outgrew that first store, and now, 19 years later, we’re still sharing Outer Banks munch satisfaction and sandy grit wit with our many happy customers. With seven retail locations – four on the Outer Banks, NC and three in Ashland, VA, Pigeon Forge, TN, and Palm Desert, CA -- plus a...
