Kukuia nut

Kukuia nuts were a type of nut that could be cracked with the application of significant pressure and were consumable by humans. During the rebellion on the Outer Rim planet Akiva in 4 ABY, the modified B1-series battle droid Mister Bones used his astromech droid limb to forcefully strike an Imperial stormtrooper's white armor, causing it to split similarly to a cracked kukuia nut.

During the Battle of Jakku in 5 ABY, New Republic pilot Norra Wexley escaped Imperial custody on the planet Jakku and rendezvoused with a shuttle her teammate Jas Emari had stolen from the bounty hunter Mercurial Swift. Once on board, Wexley consumed survival rations stored in a locker on the vessel, which consisted of kukuia nuts, dried galcot, and kalpa sea-threads. She reflected that it was not good food, though the pilot continued to chew on the nuts as she and Emari discussed their next move.
