Pecans are a "tough nut to crack."

Pecans are a soft, flavorful nut full of fiber, protein, oleic acid, and more than 19 vitamins and minerals. They aren't the simplest to harvest, however, as they are encased in protective shells that can be extremely tough to crack. Without a nut cracker of some kind, breaking open the shells results in smashed pecans. The Meyer Pecan Cracker is a commercial pecan cracker that simplifies this process while maintaining the integrity of the nuts.
