I know it's hardly obvious from my profile, but I am actually British. Complaining about something this inane is anything but surprising for a Brit.

Given this is BA we're talking about, you're more likely to hear: "I'm sorry sir/madam, I'm afraid the only thing we have got left are Percy Pigs."

I'd like to nominate this as thread of the year.
though in the spirit of not veering off topic, i must mention that nuts are good when eaten room temperature too, and you don't need to gamble about the texture when served that way.

I wish I hadn’t started Googling.
Roasted cashews recipe, and why you should soak nuts.
The best unsolicited advice I ever got from a random old lady at the Park Slope Food Co-op was to soak my nuts.
Soaking your nuts before you roast them will greatly enhance their flavor.
Good nuts come to those who wait:

Nuts
I'm a man who likes my nuts at room temperature, but BA keeps warming them up pre-departure, which I believe softens their naturally taut consistency.
I have on occasion considered asking CC to stop warming my nuts, but I don't want to be perceived as a ball-breaker.
Are warm nuts a matter of policy, or can I ask for my nuts to be served in their natural state?

Seriously??!!
I am asounded that the temperature of this flyer's FREE NUTS is even worthy of a discussion. It's a perk dude or didette. Don't eat them if you don't like them. I think a more worthy discussion is flight safety, discrimination on board, or unruly , rude passengers!
