SC - Honey covered nuts

[Stefan li Rous]

My friend asked me this question, which I never considered but it seems a good
question to me.

Why did they use so many almonds to flavor foods in medivel England?  They had
to be imported from the East.  Surely using English walnuts would have been
cheaper.
