Good teaser, but the confection one could also be butternut.
I only got Brazil and Chestnut!! Atleast I'm normal!!
Glad to see we have a nice little "nut cluster" here at Braingle-my first teaser of the day! --Zonanut --
LOL! I wouldn't have tried if it weren't for the scoring system...nice touch! And i think i must be super-normal because i didn't figure any of them out! Excellent job! I love it!

P.S. Technically a peanut isn't a nut

i saw this teaser a while ago but i guess i didn't comment then. i loved it both times!!!!!!!!!! i'm a nut and proud of it!!!!!!!!!!
that is good...i got confused!! of course thats just me
I love all the comments. Looks like you pistachio'd one or two solvers. Oh well, just chill and put on some Almond Brothers tunes.
cooooooooooorny!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I never knew i'm a nut expert, i'm beginning to worry myself... Good one zone, keep them rollin'.
See what happens when you hang around these type of people?!? you become a nut expert!!! The only one I didn't get was #4, which is not really a nut anyway (is it??)
This one was fun...Educational and nutty.
I'm glad I know so much about your nuts zona!
Good teaser, I never woulda thunk nuts would be fun.

YEH, WELL NOW YOU TOO KNOW I AM CERTIFIABLE
Thanks from all my nutty Braingler friends.. I just passed 10,000 points on site so I'm double-certified!
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA I got 4 right I love nuts just not the brain of them!!! Keep them Salted love them log in more!!!111
this teaser was fun i only got 4 of them but it was a great teaser.
I got the first one right, the rest I better not say
uh-oh, I guess I better start worrying, I got 6 right. What can I say.
I enjoyed that one.
I'VE ALWAYS BEEN A NUT, SO ACCORDING TO YOUR BARAMITOR, I AM CERTIFABLE.
NOT BAD!
NOT BAD!
Aw, NUTS!!! I missed "pecan"!!!
Well, I hope we can get group rate, I see I not the only certifiable one. And looking at the calendar shows that basic long, long shelved white is still in season, so we'll be in fashion. Good One and Fun 2.
4/7 not a total nutcase, hurray!
Good teaser thx
Good teaser thx
This was fun. I got 5 so here's another one for the certifiable group.
Very fun and clever! 7/7... Helped my ego this morning, and extended my daily teaser winning streak, ever since the dreaded Chimera beast stomped me a few days ago! Thanks for submitting!
4 & 5 Got me, after seeing the answer.... duh. I liked the teaser
WhattaBLAST!
Hobo, U.R.2 CLEVER!!!
Hobo, U.R.2 CLEVER!!!
I disagree with Shanniesue....I am definately a nut!!!
niiiiice! always great to wake up and get told I'm nutty. 5/7. Missed pecan (groaner on that one!) and coconut, but I really must say I like the answer given by Dezarae better: butternut, since butter is probably in a lot more confections than cocoa.
Brilliant!
i loved the witch hazel one. (seeing as i'm a wiccan...)
I got 6 of 7, and protest the one I missed, Coconut. Its a fruit, not a nut.
YAY I'M NORMAL!! lol
that was really fun
that was really fun
OMG! This teaser just proves I am a certified *Nut case* A very imaginative, yet brilliantly worded teaser to locate ALL of the nut lovers, coming in here. Keep that imagination in gear, and you will find other interests, we love to go nuts over.
I'm beginning to worry about myself! Great one!
Great one! I only got 4 right. I kind of got pecan, but not really.
Good one Zona!
I thought I had done fairly well. I thought I had 5 out of 7 until I realized that I had missed #4. I wrote almond, the ingredient of Marzipan, a MAJOR confectioners delight. Not mine personally though. I shouldn't have second guessed #2 peanut which was my first answer. But I started thinking Cocoa "pod" and put that instead. Good one with "wall"-nut.
i got 5! i didnt get #5 or #7. now that i saw the answer it was obvious. oh well... still GOOD JOB! that was really fun.
Like many of you, I got all but coconut -- I had gessed doughnut!
How about one more?
-- explosion of a tickled nose = cashew

YES 3!
i just barely made that normal line.
nice teaser
i just barely made that normal line.
nice teaser
I go 6/7 right. I missed pecan. I was thinking "cashew" like catch-you (peeking)...you know...well, nevermind! I agree though, "wall" nut clue was great!!
Loved it! Great teaser!
very good.. made me think!
Got 5 easily except # 5 and 7. For # 5, though I could get 'peek on' couldnt link it with pecan! That's stupid of me. # 7 , I was stumped!..A nice teaser, though. Thanks for making us think.
Like many, I missed 5 & 7 but loved this one. Great Job!
Yeah! I got 11 answers right!!
This was great! I got 5 ! Didnt get the cocnut one -- felt dumb when I saw the answer. Good job Zona!! I love all the brain teasers!
Looks like another round of teaser of the day turned up a whole new crop of nuts. Thanks all who enjoyed. I can see I am in fine company here!
Very nice!
got them all~good for me! Nice job.
Can't believe I got #7 right. It was a guess, but I got lucky and figured out where it was going. Missed # 5 though. Thanks for the fun!
Four right! I guess I'm still borderline normal. Strangely, though, I don't even like nuts (in "normal" state, that is - I do like peanut butter). Well, fun teaser and interesting psychological element!
Very nutty.
Very cute and funny. I always knew I was nuts!
I didn't get #7, but the rest were easy. I guess that makes me a nut. I was called a nut last night, so I guess it fits.
Great teaser!
W00T! I am an expert nut!
... oh, hang on; that's not quite right.
... oh, hang on; that's not quite right.
Great teaser! Only problem I could find in it is that peanuts aren't actually nuts.
Great quiz! Lotsa fun!
I did miss 2, however

That made me hungry...
i dont get that one. no offense, but i didnt like it. not just because it wuz hard. im just not into nuts.
Great teaser. I missed coconut. How about; hiding money in your footwear.... " cash shoe " ha ha ha
Got them all eventually. Was just about to give up on three when another ... then another came to mind ... and finally pecan. Satisfying Tnx
Brazil is a nut?
I got 6 and a male friend of mine said he got 2.
Hi everyone! I got 5 - should have gotten hazel nut. NEVER would have gotten coconut by thinking cocoa is a confection ingredient. A "hula" clue would have helped me! Have a wonderful day!
I loved this teaser! Very clever and not too easy! I only got one right, but once I looked at the answers I was like "duh, why didn't I get that one?"
100TH!!!!
I came up with Butternut instead of Coconut. Enjoyed the teaser. Thank you.
Well that makes me certifiable and it was a fun and easy one for me.
I only got 2 wrong and they were the last two lol, i dont know my nuts but i am good at brain teasers
I am proud to say I am a certifiable NUT!
Haha, good teaser. I got 6 of them. Coconut stumped me because I wasn't really thinking of something so big. You know: Walnut, Hazelnut, Brazil nut etc. are all small, normal nuts. oh well
2/6. I may not be a nut expert, but I still like them.
I missed Hazelnut and Coconu, like others, I was not thinking of cocoa in relation to a confectionery. I was trying to think of something sweet - and as anyone who has tried straight cocoa can tell you - it is not even remotely sweet. lol
I too noted that technically a peanut is a legume, but don't take much issue with that "error" as it is thought of as a nut by most people.

I didn't guess coconut either, but I think the concept is that coconut is added as to treats (as) a confection- as opposed to being an ingredient within a confection. Personally, I doubt cocoa had any relevance when the teaser was devised. I also contend that coconut is not a nut, which is what makes this teaser more abstract than logical in my opinion.
6/7 Totally did not think of coconut.
missed #4 also
I must be a total nut, got all 7!
No. 4 could also be: almond, do I get an extra nut for that one?
This was a fun teaser, thanks!
Well done!

Missed coconut entirely, but had fun figuring out the rest. Butternut also went through my mind....
I know a few nuts. None were mentioned in the quiz so i only got 3.
Fun and entertaining teaser; only missed coconut.
Loved this! I especially liked the grading scale.
Hats off to all of you who got Pecan. That was too clever for me! I also used "doughnut" for the ingredient, so I'm not certifiable.
