No Acorns in US This Year?

Trillions of acorns here in N. Florida. They outnumber rednecks 1,000,000 to 1.

Several billion humans too many.... that's the problem.

Why assume they're four-legged burgers?

Not one specific item, but I sometimes think I'd be willing to walk the 2,650 miles back to CIA Napa Valley.

There are reportedly no acorns in New England, Virginia, Washington DC, New York, Pennsylvania, Kansas, Oregon, parts of Canada including Nova Scotia, and Germany. I can only speak for my city and that is Cleveland, Ohio. There are NO acorns in Cleveland for the first time in my life. Very credible sources (like scientists) report in an article that there are no acorns to be found in an area, and then someone in a comment section will say they have loads of acorns in their yard in the same area.
I'm going with my own observations. There are no acorns in Cleveland, Ohio.

Here in Central NY we had tons of chesnuts. So many that we had a hard time getting the grass to grow because of our chesnut "carpets." Our driveway was a mess.

There's plenty down here in South West Florida...In fact it seems like an overabundance

Southern California has acorns for sure. The squirrels are starting to freak me out.

I live in Central Jersey and most years by early November my property is blanketed with with acorns. I didn't think about it until I saw this post, but this year there are none.

We are swimming in them here in Round Rock, Texas (just north of Austin).

Do nuts run in cycles? We're renting, on the East Coast. I know NOTHING about the trees here...but I DO know that when we looked at our place in March, the ground was COVERED with nut shells. Now, it's fall...and there is a nut to be seen, on the trees OR on the ground.

No acorn missiles this year at our place or in other yards that we walk by within a 1/2 mile radius from the house.

It's great to hear that acorns are indeed falling this year. I'm glad this is not another bee mystery. Nutcrackers, anyone?

Atlanta has enough for a chipmunk feast. Every time the wind blows, our roof gets pelted. They fall into our drinks when we're on the deck.

I have my share, and possibly yours too.

Maybe there are no acorns because the folks at Alinea keep cutting down the branches to make their crazy 'burnt oak leaves' with fried gelled items hors d’oeuvres.

I found the "woof" and "meow" comments offensive.

@suburbangourmet: Then you must have better luck with burgers than I have; I've come across more crappy burgers in my life that I'd like. Then again, the guy who made the crappy burger I ate last week may have been stoned.

I'm in the Army and we walk 12 miles before breakfast. Usually only takes us less than 4 hours. After that though we usually go to the nearest Mege-all you can eat-buffet.

I would walk that far for a slice of pizza from my childhood pizza joint in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn, without a doubt. If someone could re-create my favorite Italian restaurant in Brooklyn (closed for several years now) - Mama Turrey's - I would walk that far for their Spinach Canneloni.

I want to know if the burger was worth the walk though!

Slippery ham pot pie... heaven in a bowl... basically, a stew with thick, doughy homemade noodles. Here's the description from Wikipedia:

In the Pennsylvania Dutch region, there is a dish called "bott boi" by Deitsh-speaking natives and is mispronounced "pot pie" by English speakers in the area. This dish is sometimes referred to as "slippery noodle pot pie" to distinguish it from the true pie form of pot pie. Bott Boi is a stew, usually made of a combination of chicken, ham, beef, or wild game with square-cut egg noodles, potatoes, and a healthy stock of onion, optional celery and/or carrots, and parsley. Bouillon is sometimes used to enhance the flavor. The egg noodles are often made from scratch from flour, eggs, salt (optional) and water.

Why doesn't Clarambeau just jump in the news van? Why doesn't Grylls just eat his cameraman's Powerbar stash?

LOL.

If I actually had to walk 12 miles for something, I'd eat something really greasy and caloric, like an authentic Philly cheesesteak.

Mmmmm cheesesteak.

@kenjialtci: I thought the same thing. Figured it must have been a reenactment. Like the way Bear Grylls does his thing in Man vs. Wild. Why doesn't Clarambeau just jump in the news van? Why doesn't Grylls just eat his cameraman's Powerbar stash?
