⚠️ Watch-outs & how to enjoy it better

As a common allergen, tree nuts are a serious concern for many individuals.

FAQ
Why choose unsalted over salted mixed nuts?
Unsalted nuts allow you to control your sodium intake, which is better for heart and blood pressure health. They also let the natural, distinct flavors of each nut variety shine through without being masked by salt.
How should I store them to keep them fresh?
Store them in an airtight container in a cool, dark place like a pantry for up to a month, or in the refrigerator for up to 6 months to prevent the natural oils from going rancid.
Are all nuts in the blend nutritionally similar?
While all are high in healthy fats, they differ. For example, walnuts are notably higher in omega-3 fatty acids, while almonds are a standout source of vitamin E. The blend provides a diverse nutritional profile.
