The Spring Festival is the peak of family reunions and gatherings of friends
Nuts play the role of snacking for indoor entertainment
Sniffing melon seeds, peeling peanuts and moving out of the small bench with family and friends nagging
Life is more than a "comfortable" to speak of
Simply the best leisure choice for the holiday
Nuts are rich in protein, unsaturated fatty acids and more
Loved by consumers
But nuts are in a humid environment
Easily absorb moisture in the air
Contaminated with mold
