Are the almonds salted?

No, we haven't ever received them salted when ordering. We use this for making our almond milk, they are great.

No, they're completely raw -- uncooked, unsalted. I like to roast them with a bit of sea salt but they don't come with anything but the nut.

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.

I bought mine well over a year ago. They were roasted and unsalted. I don't think nuts have gluten.

They tasted ok, but I objected to the fact they contained salt in spite of being offered as salt-free. If you don'tobject to the salt you will like them.

I recall that the snacks didn't taste too salty but I don't believe that the packages specified the amount of sodium (only that sea salt was used).

I beleive from the US, no they are not salted. I enjoyed them very much. They were very good. Seal in air tight container and they stay fresh.

The bare almond butter has no salt added and zero sodium. Other versions of Barney Butter almond butter do have salt added but not excessive.

by law, California almonds have to be flash pasteurized. this means they are technically not raw, but the inside of the nut supposedly does not get "cooked" in this process.

On the website they are listed as from California and Turkey (though the Turkish pistachios are labeled). These are raw and are not salted.

They are lightly salted but, but much less salt than the other brands of pistachios I have tried.

I see SALT and Peanut Oil as additives. It might mean that they are roasted in peanut oil... would be nice of COSTCO to label the product accordingly.

Yes they are. We have been very pleased with them, because we wanted the dry roasted, unsalted. Very good.

No. Unfortunately, they have a trace of salt as do most of the products packaged this way. We did not use this particular one.

I don't know if you meant "what" those are made from. They are dried and salted plums. Most are salted while some are sweet.

Absolutely not. No sugar at all. In fact the almonds are organic and raw and uncooked. This is the best tasting almond butter I have ever had in my life. I buy 20 boxes at a time and I eat it every single day. It is very expensive but very delicious. The only downside is you have to stir it up because the oil comes to the top. It's nothing but organic raw uncooked almonds. Nothing else that's the only ingredient.

I would be very surprised if the almonds are pasteurized as that generally involves flash heating the food (my aunt and uncle had a dairy farm when I was young, so I've seen milk pasteurization). It's possible the almonds were pasteurized, but I think raw means raw, unheated, unpasteurized. You could experiment with 'nuking' them in the microwave if you're concerned about it.

The first reviewer has apparently contacted the CA Almond people (they have a website). The information given was they get a steam treatment. Please read the very first review. I bought 10 pounds about six months ago and I am making almond butter in a few minutes with the last pound. These are packaged in sealed bags by the pound. Excellent quality.
