I already ruined three, and my neighbors are
unhappy about using the processor (especially
since I tend to do much of my cooking after 8
pm...). Thus I was most grateful for the
suggestion of using a meat grinder. I've already
put in an order for one with a 2mm disc and hope
that will be small enough to make 'nut butter'.

Thanks again, whoever you were
