THE DOWNSIDE

What to keep in mind

  • Contains 715 kcal and 75.2 g fat per 100 g, so portions can provide substantial energy.
  • Unsalted means no salt was added; it does not mean the food is calorie-free, fat-free or entirely sodium-free.
  • Oil roasting can produce a different fat and energy profile from raw or dry-roasted pecans.
  • 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.
  • Roasting oils and other ingredients vary between products; use the current package ingredient list and nutrition label.
