This has inspired me, and I collected many different acorns over the past week to try cooking this week! (Though I will probably just make bread.)

Everything I found online said that there are two main types of oak, but I found five or six different types of acorn... and I wasn't even trying that hard.

Neat! I went through an phase when I was little of being interested in outdoor survival, and I remember reading about acorns as food. I kind of wanted to try something with them, but I never did. I'd still like to some time.
