Brazil nuts

Chestnuts from Pará, also known as Brazil nuts (in Portuguese: Castanha-do-Pará or Castanha-do-Brasil) Origin; Center of Belém, Pará, northern Brazil, Bolivia and Amazon rainforest. 

Brazil nuts are seeds that grow on one of the largest and longest-lived trees native to the Amazon rainforest and have been eaten by native Amazonians since the Upper Paleolithic era. They are an excellent source of essential fatty acids, plant protein, and selenium, and are also rich in micronutrients such as copper, manganese, and vitamins B and E.

Brazil Nuts are the only commercial dried fruit found exclusively in the Amazon forests. Consuming them helps towards the preservation of the rain forest since it is illegal to cut down trees in areas where Brazil Nuts are harvested.
