Did you know?
The Name "pecan" is a Native American word that was used to describe nuts requiring a stone to crack.
The pecan pie was created by French people who had settled in New Orleans.
The pecan is heart healthy and contains antioxidants, 19 vitamins and minerals and healthy fat. One of mineral components is zinc, which is important in producing testosterone in both males and females.
