I don't care if the hulls aren't on the nuts, there is no way a tablespoon of
nuts has half again more calories than a tablespoon of the nut butter. I
know that the caloric measurement of foods is as much an art as a science,
and different measurers can arrive at different numbers using the same tests,
so perhaps that explains it. But I still think that is too large a variance.
