This is one of the 1000 Things to Eat Before you Die that I just don’t get.  Green Almonds are almonds eaten before the shell becomes hard.  You CAN eat the entire thing but the dark green part is pretty bitter and tough.  What the internet says is that most people cut them in half and eat the gelatinous inner seed.  We did that but this is soo much work for so little benefit.  I can say check to this one on the list but I can also say I would not bother again.
