Default Help - can't find macadamia nuts in Dundee!

Does anyone know where I can buy salted macadamia nuts in Dundee or St Andrews or nearby? Both of our local Tescos seem to have stopped carrying them!

Thanks much for any clues...

Do you have a Sainsbury's nearby? They do have it, albeit somewhat expensive ( £1.50 for 100grs or something like that).

Sigh... not at the Sainsbury's in Dundee they don't! Or at least they were very, very well hidden.

Ah well, always worth a trip to Sainsbury's for their diet sodas, anyway. Time to see what kind of exorbitant prices the local health-food shops want... for unsalted, no less. (Beggars can't be choosers at this point!)

Thanks anyway...

Is there a M & S? Slightly more expensive than Tesco but unsalted and more in quantity

You can get unsalted macadamias in the baking aisle at Tesco, £1.49 for 100g. They're really tasty and healthier than the salted ones.

Off topic, but my mother was born in Dundee and I was pleased to see a poster from there. She left there for Canada at the age of 9, many years ago! 80 years ago to be exact.
