Sincerely NutsGourmet Macadamia Nuts Salted & Oil Roasted, 1lb Bag - Fresh Delicious Flavored Macadamia Nut Snack Food - Kosher, Keto, Paleo, Vegan & Gluten Free Friendly Pantry Staple

When I read the reviews on this macadamias many expressed their discomfort about the macadamias being oily and that’s True. I personally don’t mind it to be oily because I find these to be tasty. I really like the taste of these macadamia and doesn’t bother me the fact that it’s a little oily. Just keep that in mind when buying it but you’ll like taste to the point of liking your fingers afterwards.

I opened this package right away due to the feel of the bag. At first I thought maybe it had been smashed in transit but then I realized these very small macadamia nuts were greasy I have never seen the smaller macadamia nut and I have never seen such greasy it’s like there was oil poured into the bag. Not bad to taste so I poured them onto a cookie sheet dried them off as best I could with paper towel and try to low heat dry them in my oven I did for about 20 minutes two times before I decided not to do it anymore. I threw the bag away and put them in a gallon bag with another piece of paper towel. I sat down today at lunch and tried to have a little bowl full these are the worst macadamia nuts I’ve ever had I’m so sad. I wish I would’ve just shut the bag taped it up and sent it back but too late so I’m warning everybody don’t get these awful nuts!

I love the taste and it is healthy and low on carbs

These nuts are pretty disgusting. They are so oily and it gets all over your hands if you dip into the bag. I did taste one and it tasted fine but the look and feel is very unpleasant.I rated them a three because if I would have read the reviews I would have known they were like this. I did contact the company if this is how they were supposed to look and the response was to ask me for my order number. They could have just said yes, this is how we roast our nuts. I won’t be buying them again.

Delicious but some nuts are hard to chew; nut crunchy

These seemed very fresh. They smelled and looked very yummy. Appeared to be perfectly crunchy for toasted macadamias.My problem here is the ingredients.There shouldn’t even be an issue. The only ingredient should be macadamias.I follow a strict ketogenic lifestyle for health purposes. Macadamias are my #1 go to snack when on the go or out of prep time. I ordered these thinking it was of great value for the money. I received them and ate 1.5 ounces for snack that evening. Within 1 hour I was completely kicked out of ketosis. I refer back to the page and couldn’t seem to find anything. I went back to the bags ingredients list. Okay, I found that it had sunflower oil. Sunflower oil isn’t the best but I’ve never had it do damage such as thisAfter going back to the ads fornthe 4th time, at the very very bottom of the page, I see where it says cottonwood oil. Now, it all makes sense. Cotton wood is dangerous. It is a highly inflammatory and highly processed food. The only reason companies use it is because it is so cheap.I was super disappointed. I contacted Amazon immediately and let them know this is false advertising. I was told the best they could do was a refund. Nowhere on the bag I received does it say cottonwood oil. No where in the description did it say sunflower oil. Both of these oils are terrible for the body. When I’m excess they can cause some pretty harmful side effect.Keep looking shoppers. Just because it says it’s natural or it’s keto friendly,Doesn’t mean that it is. This is a good example of that. Stay away from it.

These arrived as mostly whole macadamia nuts, with maybe a quarter of them having split into halves. They are well-coated in oil, with salt that can be felt when you pick them up. We have consumed probably around 5 cups (1.5 lb) of these.PROThese are a great price for bulk mac nuts, and make nut-butter-making-in-a-blender super easy. I made mac nut butter in our vitamix with these and didn't have to add any oil or salt - just loaded them in as-is! If it weren't for all that oil in them, they'd make a wonderful butter substitute!CONThey have a much milder, more neutral flavor than expected, and, while they do taste like nuts, they don't quite have the full mac nut flavor for which I longed. I have to admit, I was disappointed in their taste. I would have to agree with other posters, these are probably already old when they arrive. Even searching out the ones that were darker roasted (have brown, not-quite-burnt areas on them), I could not find a nut that tasted like anything better than bland and vaguely-nutty.The amount of oil in which they are coated is, in my opinion, excessive. That mac nut butter I made with these in our vitamix? Even after resting in the fridge for almost 2 weeks, none of the oil separated out - it stayed thin and runny the enter time. Just a guess, this may be related to the age of the nuts and the solids becoming less dense, so they don't separate from the oils nearly as well. Seriously, nuts should not be coated in enough oil to account for 1/4 cup of oil per 3 cups of nuts.Assuming that 1/12 (1/4 cup per 3 cups) is a correct ratio of oil to nuts, doing a rough calculation, the cottonseed oil in this accounts for approximately 13% of the weight; so, assume this 5 lb bag contains only 4.33 lb of actual mac nuts, then go price compare.Edit: We've now also tried this same brand's (and seller's) raw and unsalted version, and found them to be really great.

These macadamias taste great and come in a good-sized quantity for the price.
