Almonds
Excellent attributes.

Surveyed US consumers rated almonds as “excellent” for the attributes of being natural, nutritious, low in sugar, high in protein and heart healthy.2

Almonds
Valued for versatility.

Thanks to almonds’ wide variety of forms and subtle buttery taste, they’re a versatile ingredient that can enhance any product without overpowering it. Whole, sliced, diced, slivered, chopped, blanched –or as almond oil, almond butter or almond flour –almonds add value in just about any application.
