If You Need Unique Gifts, Try My Nut Buckets

So you have that one friend who always answers "nothing" when you ask what they want for their birthday. And you already did that "bag full of nothing" gag gift last year, so you're back to square one. What do you get for the friend who's hard to shop for? If you're in the market for unique gifts, there's always the nut bucket.

What's a Nut Bucket?

What's a nut bucket, you ask? To the uninitiated, it's a delightful insult to use on the playground, but for people who need unique gifts, it's a fun present that can put a smile on almost anybody's face. A nut bucket is, quite simply, a bucket of nuts. But wait, there's more! Our nut buckets come with designs suitable for birthdays, holidays, and other occasions. The buckets come filled with peanuts in the shell. You can choose from salted, unsalted, or Cajun nuts. Once your recipient finishes the nuts, the bucket can become a planter, an arts and crafts storage space, or any other use that your friend can think of.

In the Mood for Chocolate?

What if your friend would rather have a sweet snack than a salty snack? Then our White Trash has got you covered. This mix of crispy and crunchy snacks are great for the sweet route when you need some unique gifts. They're covered in a delicious layer of white chocolate. If you want even more chocolate, then go for our Dirty White Trash, which also comes drizzled with milk chocolate. You can get either option in a burlap trash bucket. They also come in trash cans in a variety of sizes and colors.

Unique Gifts

Unique gifts rarely get more unique than a good old nut bucket. If you're tired of waiting until the last minute before giving up and settling on a gift card, then nut buckets are the way to go. Really, what are the chances that someone else at the party is going to bring a nut bucket? When you give nut buckets as a gift, you'll know that your gift will be memorable as well as delicious.

Feel the Burn

Hey, hot stuff, can you feel the burn? Do you know someone who loves the heat? In any group, there’s always someone with dragon breath. Typically a mild-mannered person, this pepper fanatic morphs into a fire eater who claims, “That’s not hot – I add a ton of hot peppers to my chili!” We all know someone who chomps jalapeno peppers like strawberries and who opens his cupboard – is it true that it’s always a guy? – to show you his spread of hot sauces. Well, here’s the world’s hottest gift for that character: a chance to grow the world’s hottest peppers with Try My Nuts. The heat in peppers comes from a chemical compound called capsaicin (pronounced cap-SAY-sin), which has all kinds of uses. It is used for bear spray and to reduce pain from arthritis, psoriasis, and shingles. And it’s used to put both pain and flavor in your food. When ordering peppers, most packages come marked with Scoville Heat Units (SHUs) that identify the intensity of the heat. Sweet peppers get 0 SHUs...

And Now In Other News: Cashews You Can Use

See that person standing next to the bowl of Try My Nuts ? Yes, that's the one, chatting it up with anyone who'll listen. You know what's happening, don't you? That person is creating a diversion, hoping no one will notice how close they are to the cashews while innocently reaching toward the bowl, popping morsel after morsel into their mouth. You thought we wouldn't notice, didn't you? Ah, but we did. There's a sneaky Pete at every wedding, family gathering, and potluck. How do we know? We know what they're doing because we do the same thing. We position ourselves just so and look harmless while we zero in on the cashews. We carefully survey the bowl and casually slip the cashews into our hands, never letting anyone else know what we're doing. Consider this fair warning: if not monitored, every last cashew will be gone, missing from the bowl, never seen again. Don't bother shaming us with guilt; it won't work. We have no remorse. We love o...

Not Your Mama's Snack Attack

Where do you put those gifts you don’t want? Come on, admit it - you’ve got a regifting closet or shelf stuffed with vases, shower and bath sets, loofahs, spoon holders, and scarves and hats you don’t like. And just like anything else that misbehaves, gifts do too - that’s why we put them in time out until we can figure out what to do with them. Consider the ugly sweaters you’ll wear - over your dead body. We all have well-intentioned loved ones and office workers who wouldn’t leave us out for the world come holiday time. The problem is, how well do they know us? How could they possibly pick out something special? And for that matter, how can we pick out something for someone we hardly know? We can’t - that’s the problem... which brings us to the solution. Let’s face it: not everyone shares our tastes and vice versa. What to do? Send food! Comfort food! Snacks. Ah, but what kind of snacks? We’re talking Try My Nuts, of course. We take the fear out of gift-giving every singl...
