Are the almonds organic?

The label does not state that the almonds are organic. The facts on the label also state that the almonds are grown on a 3rd generation farm in California. Hope this helps! PS: it is pretty good though.

The packaging doesn't indicate such and if they were organic you would think it would say so. That's just my opinion though, draw your own conclusions.

There is NO indication on the packaging or on the Amazon site that these are non-GMO almonds or organic. They are raw (i.e. not cooked or roasted) - not sure if that answers your question about pasteurization.

I purchased these almonds and like their flavor. I am 100% certain almonds are not (yet) genetically engineered. I am against any genetic tampering with our food supply and follow GE developments closely. There is one variety of apple that is GE, but so far no nuts. These almonds are not organically grown, so they may have been grown with synthetic fertilizers, herbicides, and insecticides. However, the almond itself is protected by a hard shell. You may want to contact the association of California Almond Growers to get more information.

they do make an organic almond butter but it costs a lot more. This one is not organic I think the organic one runs around 22 to 25 dollars you'd have to check . Hope this helps. Both are delicious, organic and non

Yes, we can guarantee that. Feel free to contact us via the contact seller link Amazon provides if you should have an issue with your almonds. I think that reviewer must have gotten a missing bag or another customer's return, which again is Amazon's policy. Unfortunately, the reviewer never contacted us so we could attempt to resolve the issue.

About these particular nuts, I cannot comment. But for your general information and in answer to the comment by Leann McCamey: I am sorry to have to inform you that the FDA specifically allows steam-heat pasteurized almonds to be labeled "RAW" Yes, even though they are "cooked" by being pasteurized, the FDA allows (and perhaps encourages) the industry to continue to label them raw. The other method of "pasteurization" is fumigation by toxic gas (my memory is not screening up the chemical right now, just google for it) and those also are "raw", I am not sure how "organic" they are according to the USDA's definition of "organic". Of course none of this fits MY definition of safe, wholesome, raw or organic. About these particular nuts, I cannot comment.

According to their website these almonds are imported from Italy and they are not pasteurized.

My package says organic but if there is nothing on yours that says organic, I would not assume they are. Todd's Seeds is very communicative via email so I would ask them directly.

Hi. Certain these are not blanched or soaked almonds. Believe they are simply raw and temp controlled when ground. Quite tasty.

The pine nuts come from China and packaged in the States. I think you would be better off asking this question from the organization that certified them as USDA organic. The company name is QAI. Or better yet, ask the question from Now Foods. I don't really care about them being organic. I purchase them for what they are, the quality of the product and more importantly the cost.

The oats in this product are grown in fields dedicated to only oats, without cross contamination with wheat or other grains, and tested for purity. The package states they are free of preservatives and chemicals. No mention of organic on the label, however. Also note that there is no legal definition of organic foods. They are as pure as needed for celiacs. Enjoy.

I believe they are organic: very fresh appearance with pleasant natural smell, much better than another brand I bought before!

The information on the package goes to great lengths to assure the customer of the wholesomeness of the product, however, I do not see the word "organic" anywhere. Perhaps you can find more information at www.palousebrand.com or www.facebook.com/palousebrand Good luck! As an aside, I have used these in cooking (I use them to replace ground meat in recipes, and have made salads with them.) and I have no complaints.

There is nothing on the packaging to indicate if organic or not. I suggest you go to there website, you might find the answer there. It's a very informative site

It's been a long time since I ordered them. If they say organic that usually means they are.
