Fascinating thing I found the other day... sometimes eating pine nuts can (literally) leave you with a bitter taste in your mouth for days after. It's a very strange feeling, so much so that it inspired a scientist to research the cause, here: http://journals.lww.com/euro-emergencymed/pages/articleviewer.aspx?year=2001&issue=03000&article=00036&type=fulltext
