  • Provides 26.0 mg alpha-tocopherol vitamin E per 100 g.

THE DOWNSIDE

What to keep in mind

  • Contains 607 kcal and 55.2 g fat per 100 g, so unsalted does not mean low calorie or low fat.
  • Oil roasted is not the same as dry roasted, and the added oil can change the fatty-acid profile.
  • Almond is a major tree-nut allergen and can cause severe reactions; cross-contact also matters.
  • Whole nuts and nut pieces are choking hazards for young children; follow age-appropriate preparation guidance.
  • Manufacturers may use different roasting oils or add seasonings, and opened almonds can turn rancid; check the package and store cool and airtight.
