Nuts 4 Nuts is TRULY iconic. Used to pass one by the B. train subway on Church Ave. EVERY morning on my way to elementary school. I am now approaching 30 years old 🤣 I'm surprised but delighted to see the business is still going 👏🏾😁

New York has rats l000l that’s been an issue for a long time now. The city doesn’t do anything about it.

I interned in NYC one summer. I used to take a break around 3pm every day and go for a walk. The nuts4nuts cart was my guilt pleasure every time they were out there.

I've been helping this man stay in business since '88 lol

"You can tell the energy, the vibration of the city. Everyone is coming to be part of that stage, and you are just another actor on the stage. You see the rush of the people and the desperation to get from one place to the other. And sometimes you just are there seeing them in quietness. You are in the eye of the storm."

As a Chilean New Yorker this makes me feel very proud

I'll never forget the very first time I had Nuts4Nuts. Was 8 years old and the Flyers were playing the Rangers on Eric Lindros's birthday (queue the clutch HBD sign that got me on tv several times during the game! lol) and our train got into Penn early so me and my dad walked around a bit. I smelled the cart and no joke the smell alone hit me like a piano. Was so obsessed with them before the game that I obviously demanded we scooped some up for the ride back home after. Decades later and having worked in NYC for the last 12 years it's still a regular stop for me. So dang good!

Growing up in the city as a kid, Nuts 4 Nuts was a truly special street stand. Their mix nuts were juicy, coco was my fav... So happy they got a recognition at eater!

Thank you #EEater for sharing another small business story. And thank you #Nuts4Nuts allowing us to view all of your processes. Congratualtions on your success and I love your gift box set of different nuts.

I remember having those almost 20 years ago during a school trip from Canada. They were so freaking good. I still have vivid memories. I was blown away.

This is one of those things you scoff at until you try, and then it's something you always want but can never find.

Nuts 4 nuts makes NYC a special place!

These are hands down the best snack the New York streets have to offer. I can’t pass by a nuts4nuts cart and not buy a pack or 2 or 3…

Oh my how I missed these nuts! So glad to know they ship 🎉

Peanuts are also a popular street food in Manila. The vendors would usually offer them in small paper bags, with plain salted, crispy garlic, spicy, and honey roasted variety. It’s interesting that this is a commonality among us.

Had this when walking Central Park. Those peanuts are sooo good!

A great rapper once said, 'If you can make it here, you can make it anywhere'. The work ethic of NY people is just the next level.

You’re right to understand the people about what they want,you can feel their energy and see the look in their eyes, and know what they want before they tell you,you’re right that’s the way to do business and how to keep them coming back.

With how operation is at their factory, they might have a hard time scaling even bigger. They only have two machine and that machine requires a body there to constantly stir and mix the nuts. A possible solution is welding some rods along the inside of that pot that'll stir the nuts as the nuts roll pass them. I've seen something similar at a velocity chinese stir fried noodle restaurant. Of course it goes without saying that they'll have to fine tune those rods to get the proper consistency that they need for the nuts. But to implement that would allow more machines to roasts the nuts simultaneously without having to have a body at each machine. Everything is done by hand e.g. sorting, packing, and even the logistics of fufilling orders. If they were to scale to be a national product, they would have to start streamlining the process and have to automate some of it. It's nice to hear that they've done a long way since they started. But they need a way to cut down on the bottle necking.

I use to live in nyc and also would visit. I always got 2 to 3 bags of those sweet delicious hot Peanuts. Especially on a cold night catching the train. I miss the pizza,hotdogs, peanuts and bagels. Love you New york.

You could smell them from at least a half a block away. And NYC blocks are long!😃 They are delicious!😊

Always get 2 bags of cashews for $5. Get one for that day, and then save the other bag for tomorrow when the sugar gets even crustier and crunchier mmmmm hmm.

Grande conejo!

Clever marketing! I'm now going to peruse the website to get some of those tasty nuts.

They used to have it in Melbourne, Australia 2016 .. City Streets...

Looks yummy! At least we know where it's coming from.

There are a load of variety of food carts in NYC with so many various ethnic foods and there they are, selling roasted nuts which is basically snacks. Usually people get tired of doing same things within 5 years. They kept on improving on for 30 years with the same passion every single day. This is old school entrepreneur mentality and a lost art.

nothing beats the Pinoy MANI, or Street Peanuts that's FRIED, with lots of GARLIC CHIPS, Crispy CHILI FLAKES, slightly salted but most of all, the important MAGIC ADDITIVES are TONS OF MSG

Hell yeah

Absolutely nuts!

Nuts4Nuts is truly Iconic!! We can only hope our stone-milled bread and bagels become equally iconic some day 🤞🤞🤞

I love the assimilation.

Every time I visit family in NY I stop by those carts.

It's crazy isn't it, to see how people are still going nuts for nuts.😅 😉

No place like NYC I used to live there I miss the city..

I wish they could ship these to Canada

I could smell this video!!

I love Nuts 4 Nuts. I love the smell too!!!

I bet the smell alone is fattening and irresistible! As a child traveling in, I think it was London with my parents, a street vendor was roasting chestnuts and the smell was absolutely incredible as were the nuts themselves. I have not been able to reproduce it.

hands down best of part nyc

I got some of these in January on our way back to our hotel. The smell stopped me mid step. lol

so essentially this crack the code of how to be happy. what a personality....

Awesome

It's crazy to think this was the go to snack for romans 2000 years ago

Any time I walk the streets of NYC for work, I make sure I have at least 25$ cash on me. 20 for a couple of bags of nuts and 5 bucks for the cart attendendant.

Fj cruiser 😍

That smell is like the old cartoons that captivate your senses and it's over. 😂

I also tell people I made my name on the streets, too.

I can't believe they sell a bag of nuts for just 2 bucks. That's crazy and an absolute bargain. They look so tasty too. I miss going to NYC, it's still the most vibrant city on earth.

Only $2 a bag? in NYC? 3 for $5? You could easily raise that to $3 ea and 2 for $5 and no one would notice. He had these prices 5 years ago. You can't tell me costs have not gone up for him. But good for him on being so successful.

False advertising, there is not a drop of honey on those nuts, some lawyer should turn this into a class action
