Pecan is the Native American Algonquin word used to describe “all nuts requiring a stone to crack.” The pecan tree is native to the southeastern United States and river valleys of Mexico.

Pecans have grown in Texas since prehistoric times. Indians gratefully ate them and also gave them their name, an Algonquian word meaning a nut that it takes a stone to crack.

For 50 cents a pound, up to 20 pounds, four old-timey-looking machines will do all the pecan cracking work for you.
