Mound City Shelled Nut Company Introduces its “Nuts for You” Valentine’s Day Promotion

ST. LOUIS - Feb. 6, 2015 - PRLog -- Mound City Shelled Nut Company, manufacturing St. Louis’ finest quality nuts since 1917, reveals its exclusive “Nuts for You” Valentine’s Day gift promotions. For those who want to give thoughtful Valentine’s gifts without sending the wrong impression, a package of Mound City nuts is the perfect solution.  From slow-roasted Colossal Cashews to gently roasted almonds to dry-roasted pistachios, all of Mound City’s fresh nuts are prepared on location, making Mound City an ideal place to purchase healthy Valentine’s Day gifts for anyone on your list.

“Buying flowers and candy for someone can give the wrong impression about your intentions, but nuts just say you’re thinking about them and appreciate all they do,” said Byron Smyrniotis, president of Mound City Shelled Nut Company.

Unlike chocolate and other candies, each variety of Mound City nuts provides a unique health benefit. Colossal Cashews, for example, available in gold foil gift boxes and crystal-cut glass decanters for Valentine’s Day, are particularly rich in iron, zinc and magnesium – a combination that may improve memory, vision and immune system strength. According to the National Retail Federation, $1.6 billion is spent annually on Valentine’s Day candy alone, unfortunately making the unhealthy snack the most purchased gift of the holiday.

“Candy isn’t the best gift for someone who’s particularly health-conscious,” Smyrniotis continued. “Send them an exclusive “Nuts for You” Valentine’s Day assortment, and you’ll be giving something special, heart-healthy and NUTritional.”

When thinking of unique gift ideas, Mound City makes it easy. Send in a gift list, and Mound City ships the packages the next day, each complete with a personalized card.  To purchase a “Nuts for You” gift for Valentine’s Day, visit Mound City in St. Louis, Mo.
