THE DOWNSIDE

What to keep in mind

  • Contains 710 kcal and 74.3 g fat per 100 g, so portions can provide substantial energy.
  • Contains 383 mg sodium, equivalent to about 0.958 g salt per 100 g; the corresponding unsalted USDA profile contains 1 mg sodium.
  • Dry roasted describes the roasting method and does not mean low fat or low calorie.
  • Pecan is a major tree-nut allergen and can cause severe reactions; cross-contact information also matters.
  • Whole nuts and nut pieces are choking hazards for young children; follow age-appropriate preparation guidance.
  • Salt levels, roast intensity and other ingredients vary between products; use the current package ingredient list and nutrition label.
