General comment Tung seed is the seed of the fruit produced by the tung tree. Tung seeds resemble walnuts, and the term 'walnut' is applied to this species. Unlike walnuts, tung seeds are extremely poisonous, even deadly, if they are eaten raw. The seed oil of tung tree is rich in a-eleostearic acid (ESA), which endows tung oil with the characteristic of an excellently dry oil.
