I ate these for quite a while after putting dried Hunza apricots in my porridge in the mornings.
I thought I'd found a hack to get 'free' little almond-like nuts out of the kernel (they tasted quite almondy)
I later discovered that the almondy taste might be due to the amount of natural cyanide in them and stopped.
Then, months later, I had a senior moment and started to do it again - stopping for good this time.
Not sure if there is a health risk - just a heads up to all and sundry to do research before copying anyone - whether they're 92 or just frugal & dumb like me!
Keeping healthy is way more important than anyone can imagine.
Edit: I do have dozens of health problems - and I do mean dozens...
