Macadamia was academia

The original name of macadamia nuts was "academia nuts". The name was misspelled as "macadamia" in 1930 on labels of jars from a famous nut trading company from Hawaii and the new name somehow stayed. These nuts are tropical nuts and native to Australia. Though available in India in top-end stores, their cultivation has still not been started in India.
