Macadamia
“King of crunchy nuts”
In the past Doi Chaang used to be the land of opium now people who live there has changed to macadamai planting.
Macadamia trees are tropical evergreen trees. Macadamia grow at the elevation of 1,000 meters above sea level like at the Doi Chang area. They grow at a slower rate compared to the ones grown below 1,000 meters above sea level. Macadamia fruit has a hard woody shell follicle with a green outside. The inside shell is brown with white nut in it. Macadamia nuts are crunchy and tasty. Either raw or cooked nuts are edible. It can be a snack food that is roasted, fried, or covered with chocolate. It can be mixed with other ingredients, such as salt or sugar as well.
Macadamia nuts have no cholesterol. Its lipids contain mono-unsaturated fatty acids or HDLs (high density lipids), like oleic acid, palmitoleic acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid, myristic acid, docohexaenoic acid, and linoleic acid. These fatty acids can lower cholesterol and LDLs (low density lipids), which are the cause of heart attacks. Macadamia nuts contain antioxidants, second only to the Brazil nut. The antioxidants help in reducing the damage from cell oxidation, which causes various cancers.

Macadamia varieties, developed from Australian native strains, are bigger and are tastier and more flavorful than the original variety.
