Can bitter hazelnuts be eaten?

If hazelnuts are bitter, it is recommended not to eat them. The most likely reason for hazelnuts to be bitter is that they have gone bad. Fresh and normal hazelnuts will not taste bitter. Bitter hazelnuts indicate that the hazelnuts are abnormal and should not be eaten. However, if wild hazelnuts are bitter, a slight bitter taste is normal, but if they are very bitter, they are probably spoiled. Hazelnuts are rich in fat, so they will be a little bitter at first, and then they will have a rancid smell. The rancid smell is caused by the deterioration of the oil in the dried fruit.
