Guest guest Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 As I understand it nuts take a very long time to digest 2 1/2 to 3 hrs according to a chart I have. I ran into trouble eating a delicious soup made from chestnuts that a friend gave me and that was probably the problem as she assured me there was no dairy involved.
