It's about nuts AND it's probably a dumb question, but...
When you buy mixed nuts in the store, Planters for example, they're roasted, right? How do raw nuts taste in comparison? Brazil nuts, for example, and almonds. I don't want to order a truckload and we don't like them because we're used to the "bad" kind!

Almonds are good natural.
I think natural cashews are odd. I think most brazil nuts are raw... hard to roast in that shell. The problem with Planter's is that they are salted. Keep nuts in the frig to keep from going rancid if you by natural.

Thank you! I think I'll order Brazil nuts and almonds. They seem to get the highest marks for health benefits.

I eat raw almonds and walnuts. Walnuts are a great source of Omega-3s.
Since I have started eating these nuts raw I don't like the taste of roasted and/or salted nuts.

How long do raw nuts stay "fresh" in the refrigerator? I don't want to order too many, but they're way cheaper in truckloads.

Nuts contain a lot of oil and can become rancid if not stored properly. Storing them properly, however, is easy. When stored in a container in the refrigerator or freezer, nuts may stay fresh enough to eat for as long as 2 years.

3oz of unsalted almonds provide 270mg of magnesium.
This is a huge benefit. Other nuts are high also... Check this website: www.nutritiondata.com pay attention to serving size to get the most accurate information. nuts are high in protein too... but also fat. Sometimes I have just nuts for lunch. Nothing else.
