THE DOWNSIDE

What to keep in mind

  • Contains 607 kcal and 50.0 g fat per 100 g, so lightly salted does not mean low calorie or low fat.
  • Contains 143 mg sodium, equivalent to about 0.358 g salt per 100 g; lightly salted does not mean sodium-free.
  • The USDA reference reports 139 micrograms selenium per 100 g, but this can vary greatly with the nut types and proportions in the blend.
  • The blend may contain several major tree-nut allergens, and “without peanuts” does not guarantee absence of peanut cross-contact; check the package allergen statement.
  • Whole nuts and nut pieces are choking hazards for young children; follow age-appropriate preparation guidance.
  • The exact nuts, proportions, roasting oil, salt level and other ingredients vary by product; use the current package ingredient list and nutrition label.
