ellienihonThe principal of one of my schools gave all the teachers ginkgo nuts on a day I was there. Lucky me. Here is what I have learned about Ginkgo nuts:
Ginkgo nuts smell. It's hard to describe. It kind of smells kind of like shit, but different. This is reduced when they're rinsed, and changes when they're cooked. They still smell, but now it's milder, and very much it's own special odor.
Ginkgo nuts are this really nasty shade of yellow green. Quite similar to the color of your phlegm when you have a sinus infection.
Gingko nuts are bitter. Even if you add salt and cook them.
Ginkgo nuts explode if you don't crack them before you put them in the microwave. It sounds kind of like really heavy popcorn.
If I set food next to my computer, I will pick at it even if I don't like it. (I really ought to throw the Gingko nuts away.) They're gone now.
