California's oldest restaurant? Tadich Grill is the answer. This place which opened in 1849 is believed to be the third oldest continuously running restaurant in the U.S.

It is preceded only by Boston's Union Oyster House (1826) 

 and New Orlean's Antoine's Restaurant (1840)...

At the time that Tadich Grill started as a business, California wasn't even a U.S. state.

In 1849, Nikola Budrovich, Frano Kosta, and Antonio Gasparich, three immigrants from Croatia, set up a tent on Long Wharf and posted a sign. The sign read Coffee Stand. Long Wharf was a pier that reached half a mile into the Bay. Hundreds of sailing ships were tied up at this pier. It was a pier that was lined with hastily built shops, saloons, markets, and gambling dens. The Coffee Stand served fresh fish grilled over charcoal which is claimed to be the first place to grill seafood over mesquite charcoal. Merchants, sailors, and adventurers would eat here. This is how the Tadich Grill first began.

Today, Tadich Grill is basically a 166 year old seafood restaurant serving the residents, visitors, and other guests of the city of San Francisco. Unlike some popular and historic restaurants, it's still said that "Tadich Grill is not so noisy that you can't have a conversation with your companions. Now and even a century ago, it would hardly have been any different. Back then, customers left happy and returned frequently, just like they still do."

National Nut Day is observed annually on October 22. This day is NOT about the neighbor that lives down the street or the crazy co-worker. It is a food holiday celebrating a healthy and nutritious snack.
Nuts are a highly prized food and energy source and are a primary source of nutrients for both humans and wildlife.   Many of them are used in cooking, eaten raw, sprouted, or roasted as a snack food and pressed for oil that is used in cookery and cosmetics.
The fats found in nuts, for the most part, are unsaturated fats, including monounsaturated fats.
Many nuts are excellent sources of vitamins E and B2. They are also rich in protein, folate fiber, and essential minerals such as magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, copper, and selenium.
Nuts are essential to animals, especially those in temperate climates, as they store acorns and other nuts during the autumn months to keep from starving during late fall, all winter, and early spring.
Several studies have shown that those who consume nuts regularly are less likely to suffer from coronary heart disease (CHD).  It was in 1993 that nuts were first linked to protection against CHD. Since that time, many clinical trials have found that consumption of various nuts, such as almonds and walnuts, can lower serum LDL cholesterol concentrations.
One study has shown that people who ate nuts lived two to three years longer than those who did not. Those who were consuming nuts may have been eating less junk food leading to a longer lifespan.
Nuts are healthiest in their raw form.
