are these whole lentils? So often red lentils are bits and pieces and cook to mush.

Yes, some halved. Remember they cook very quickly! Not like other beans, even faster usually then the standard supermarket lentils. I have been very happy with everything I've ordered from Spicy World on Amazon! We live about 75 miles from any ethnic grocery so I regularly order dal beans and spices in quantity from Amazon.

By nature, as you probably know, red lentils cook softer and are creamier, but these arrive whole and not in bits.

It's hard to tell what you mean by "whole lentils". I eat a fair amount of lentils and have never seen any type sold as "bits and pieces". Lentils are either split (the most common way they are sold in the US) or unhulled. Dal, by definition, refers to hulled, split lentils. Split red lentils always cook to "mush"; that's the whole point. They are intended to cook down to a thick porridge or stew. If you want lentils that stay as intact beans after cooking, get green of brown lentils.

Yes there are nuts. Half nuts and nut pieces that I have seen. No whole nuts. These are really good bars. Good taste and texture. Better than many other bars we have tried and definitely lower in calories and carbs.

Hi there! I always do! This brand is generally free of stones and other debris but one can never be sure. Spread the lentils in batches on a tray and check for debris before re-packing. When you cook them, place in a sieve under running water to rinse. They are then ready to cook. These are good value.

No! I eat them right out of the bag. Mainly I cook them in my morning oatmeal. The red color in water after soaking the dried cranberries is from the reconstitution of the berries.

It's the whole berries. I cook them up as a substitute for rice. Hope this helps!

Ah, so they are not whole but in pieces? I use the whole ones wherein there are also some bits and pieces in all our breads, muffins and stuffings (now that Thanksgiving is upon us). I'm also using them in fruit cakes. Last year, I reconstituted them a little in water. Then when they had received good moisture, I dried them off and added them to syrup (which was just boiled sugar). They made a pretty and sweet topping to pumpkin pie and mashed sweet potatoes. I do hope this was some help and if not, don't hesitate to ask me. A pleasure to try to answer. All best and Happy Thanksgiving.

They are jumbo raw peanuts and need to be cooked. I use them in my homemade peanut brittle. These are very good quality raw peanuts and a very good value.

It appears to be made from roasted seeds. I'm not sure about whether it is whole seed or hulled.

No. The chicken and/or fish is shredded and in chunks. It's not processed like your typical cat food and then made into "artificially" chunky/flaked/sliced pieces, but instead it's real meat pieces. Our cats love it, but then they're not fans of pâté-style foods...

If I remember correctly the lentil were actually inside a plastic bag secured with a twist tie. The bag is quite nice. But I store my bulk items in glass jars after I get them as I have found plastic bags aren't always enough to ward off pests.

Hello and thank you for asking... Our Raw Spanish Peanuts are exactly as they appear in the image provided. Shelled, Raw. Not Roasted, Not Salted and No Shells. We do carry Peanuts in the Shell, however, they are provided under a different item number and the image would show the shell. Thanks !

Are the vegetables ground into the food or in chunks like many of these organic cat foods?

Pate is more of a solid with gravy, it is not shredded or contain bits and morsals

Probably-we make hummus and vegan cashew cheese in it, so it can handle a lot of processing that would usually be done with a food processor and not a blender. Soaked lentils should be fine :)

yes, more redish . the nuts are large. I got mine to roast and make peanut clusters and peanut brittle. Very very happy with the product

No. It's all one piece. I tried using a margarine container but it didnt cook all the way thru, maybe because not enough time. I never tried it again.

I think so. I roast them in a pan when I want them roasted. I've ordered them several times now and they are good.
