Ours is not. Mac Nut Oil is priced competitively with a medium grade olive oil. The reason for the value is that we use only 100% Australian macadamia nuts – the primary source of macadamia nuts.

I've been all around New Orleans, I can tell you that EVERYTHING that got HARD. Besides, New Orleans was a trash bin before Katrina. They didn't call it "Sin City" for nothing.
