Trivia
- Unlike most nuts, chestnuts have little protein or fat. Most of their calories come from carbohydrates. Their carbohydrate content compares with that of wheat and rice. They have twice as much starch as potatoes.
- They are the only "nuts" that contain vitamin C. This decreases by about 40% after heating.
- Fresh chestnuts contain about 52% water by weight, but dry quickly.
