Never before have I been a fan of almonds, but after trying these I can't seem to get enough of them.
I ordered these as a healthier alternative to chips for when I'm craving something crunchy to snack on. They do the job deliciously; I have to moderate myself from having too many in one go.
My sister tried some and found them to be a bit to spicy and strong for her, but personally I think they're great. I would definitely recommend these to friends. Worse case scenario, if they don't want it I'll be more than happy to take them.
(The resealable bag is also a big plus. When you initially tear the package open some of the wasabi flavored powder gets in the way of resealing, but after wiping the powder off the seal works like a charm.)
Much healthier than what I usually snack on. The almonds are great quality; not dry or "old" tasting. The flavor makes it a snack I want to eat without feeling as guilty since these are heart-healthy and more filling due to the protein. My boyfriend-- who usually has a thing against almonds-- loves these too. I'll be buying these regularly!
These are the most delicious almonds I've ever tried - I'm a big Smokehouse Almond fan, but these have the Smokehouse flavor beat by a mile.
The only thing I don't love about them is that it's hard to stop. :)
The heat from the wasabi is very mild - I wouldn't mind if Blue Diamond amped it up a bit, but they're great just the way they are.
Pretty authentic tasting. Not dead on, but reasonably close. It's not unnecessarily hot, either.
One thing that I love about this company- the almonds are very fresh! It's unclear whether any fats have been added to retain freshness/prevent them from becoming rancid, as is customary with some nuts. Especially macadamias. I'm not sure if this is done with almonds.
As with all almonds, high fat content. These are mostly "healthy fats" (polyunsaturated and mostly monounsaturated). That doesn't make this a diet food, so ya know.
Keep the bag closed tightly when you're not eating them. The taste and texture remain good that way.
I love these almonds! I've tried several of their flavors, and these are definitely my favorite of all the ones I've tried. They have nice kick to them, without being overly spicy (unless you put too many in your mouth at once, and then you get that super intense flavor that kicks you in the face). They arrived quickly, and were not out of date, or close to expiration when I got them (which can be an issue for food on Amazon). This is also the best price I've found, so I'll be buying them again.

Description
When we first heard the idea, we were a little skeptical, too. Then we tried one. Great wasabi kick with a salty, sweet finish. But we still weren't sure, so we tried another one. And then another. Pretty soon the can was gone, so we had to open up a new one. Well, we're still trying them. We're pretty sure we like them, but we're going to keep on tasting them to be sure.
Don't buy these, they are addicting! LOL Man, I love these things. And the wasabi coating on them makes me slow down and eat them slower, which is also good. Almonds are so great for your health. The price on this product tends to go up and down, so I have it in my lists, waiting for a price drop again. Great product, tastes good and also good for your health.
These are pretty darn tasty. I'm not generally a fan of all the unusual flavors of nuts since nuts are already pretty tasty in my opinion. I usually just go salty or sweet, but tried these out and they're my new favorites. Like, I get a handful out and close the bag so I'm not tempted to gobble them all up for dinner. Give them a rough chop and add throw them on top of a salad. You won't be sorry.
The almonds were fresh, not a stale one in the bag - so that's a great sign. The flavor is great, really second in the savory category just to their Salt and Vinegar selection. Really, the only gripe, which isn't a big one, is the excessive amount of 'flavor powder' in the bag compared to nuts. The completely superfluous amount of wasabi dust is just a little perplexing.
I’ve been somewhat obsessed with these for the better part of three years. I’ve also gotten my dad obsessed with them. It’s the perfect snack to curb the HANGER between meals. This is a very particular flavor, and not for everyone, which is great because that means your stash is safe and you don’t have to share too much!
If you love sushi, you will love these almonds. They are coated in a spice that tastes exactly like the soy sauce and wasabi that you put on sushi -- without the fish or rice. great, heart-healthy choice for when you are craving sushi but don't want or don't have access to proper sushi.
