Lightly Salted Almonds

Breakdown

Processed · 3 ingredients to avoid

Blue Diamond Lightly Salted Almonds scores 10/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. Per serving it carries 3g fiber, 6g protein and 1g sugar. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Blue Diamond Lightly Salted Almonds lists 5 ingredients, starting with Almonds, Vegetable Oil, Canola, Safflower and/Or Sunflower and Sea Salt. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

170 kcal per serving, or 607 kcal per 100g. Calories are only part of the picture — Tallow scores Blue Diamond Lightly Salted Almonds on what the ingredients are, not how many calories they carry.

At 10/100 Blue Diamond Lightly Salted Almonds scores worse than most nuts & seeds we have scored. A higher-scoring option in nuts & seeds is Aldi Dry Roasted Organic Peanuts at 100/100.
