Peppy gets into bag of pistachios
Hamsters like nuts. The shell provides a nice thing for the hamster to chew through.
Hamster Tip
It should be noted however that larger nuts (like walnuts) or nuts with an extremely hard shells (like pine nuts) should be partially cracked before giving them to the hamster. That is if you want the hamster to eat the inside. Otherwise it would be like you trying eat something the size of a soccer ball without a knife, fork, or pneumatic drill. The nut becomes more of an obstacle than food (which you may or may not want).

an uncracked walnut becomes an plaything to Peppy
The ideal nut then would be the peanut as it's shell is textured and can easily be broken by a hamster bite. It should also be noted that most hamsters like peanuts.
