Did you know? Interestingly, during the maturation process, the nuts can spontaneously heat up, a phenomenon not commonly seen in other oil-producing seeds. This heating is believed to result from metabolic activities within the seeds, possibly due to the high content of fatty acids and other bioactive compounds.
