    Categorization of Almonds?

    So... some of the categorizes overlap, so this is not a precise science (i.e. grains or nuts can be spices or seasoning), but almonds are classified as a Spice, despite all other nuts being classified (properly) as fruits. Seems to me Almonds should be a fruit and be edible with the 3% EXP bonus.

    Greetings gahoo,

    Just spoke with the team, and they were adamant on maintaining the almond's classification as a spice, claiming that the almonds you harvest are raw, and therefore cannot be eaten without first preparing them.

    To better reflect this, I'll be updating the help text for almonds (which currently say you can eat them whole!).

    Thanks for bringing this to our attention!

    Their harvest rate sucks. Fix that while you're at it.

    Sounds to me like we need a roasted almonds recipe! A few almonds... some table salt... maybe a little cooking oil... sprinkle some fire shards and omnomanom.
