I love these almonds. I usually buy raw almonds, but I don't really like them. While other roasted almonds have a lot of salt, these are lightly salted and are perfect for me. I do not have high blood pressure, but I still don't want overly salted food. I bought these almonds along with walnuts, pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds. I mixed them together in a large bowl and a resealed them in smaller packages with my vacuum sealer.
I don't like premixed nuts and seeds, because I want control over what's in the mix. I'm on a low carb diet, so this will make a nice addition to my diet.
These are very yummy & just the right amount of salt. I just called Blue Diamond. The CS woman was so knowledgeable as I was concerned about PPO after reading Q&A above. She went into great detail about the fact that their Lightly Salted Almonds are no longer treated with PPO - they are steam treated for any possible bacteria. This is a fairly recent change they made which is an acceptable method of pasteurization. She said no other chemicals are used during the processing by them. I will be buying these again after this information.
There is no better deal than this big bag of almond with just a hint of salt. They travel well, fill the gaps between meals, and offer healthy calories. Chewed slow and savored, the nutty delight of almonds takes the place of lots of foods I don't indulge in.
The first time taste Blue Diamond I said: wow... this is fresh... crunchy... and is perfectly salted! I loved this "Lightly Salted" version of the product. Then when I wanted to buy it again the priced was raised and then out of stock... I must confess that I tried a cheaper brand but it didn't work. Then I came back with Blue Diamond and It has mantein its freshness, so if you could find it at the right price you can't go wrong
These taste good and have just the right amount of salt. Not as good as California nonpareil almonds but decent nonetheless. I'd buy again at the right price.

Description
Being good to your body doesn't mean you have to sacrifice flavor. A healthy handful of 28 Lightly Salted premium almonds contains just 40mg of sodium – the right amount to bring out the almond taste without breaking your resolve to cut down on salt.
Always fresh and high quality. I have purchased other brands and keep coming back to Blue Diamond. The Low Sodium bags are somewhat difficult to find and occasionally are out of stock even on Amazon but worth the wait.
These are a family favorite. Trying to be healthy by cutting back on the salt. Love the taste and crunchy texture. Wish they would lower the salt even more. Use to buy the 32oz. container from Costco, but they stop stocking them.
Great taste, very fresh, good price and very healthy snack! This is the best Almond snack that I have ever purchased. Would buy again any time!
Nice size and very fresh!
Still getting some salt without loading it on thanks! Tastes much better for us salt sensitive people.
