Where Do You Buy Your Almonds, Cashews, Etc?

[taweavmo3]

I'd really like to start making my own almond milk and cashew milk. Pretty much all the nuts I can find are "packaged in a facility with wheat" yada, yada, yada. So I'm just curiuos if anyone else makes their own alternative milks, and if so, where do you buy your nuts from? Ha, hubby read this and laughed. I guess the word "nuts" is still funny no matter what age you are, lol. Anyway, thanks!

Nuts....Hee!!

Anywoo, I buy my nuts at Kroger in the produce section. I eat walnuts and almonds, and they carry one pound bags of each of those from Poindexter Nut Company. The bags actually say--"processed and packaged in a gluten and peanut free facility". (love that!)

Costco is the place to go, their cashews are so good! Planters sucks compared to Costco cashews and you can get a big bag of raw almonds or salted and roasted for a good price.

We buy a huge container of Sunkist Almonds at Sams and they are delicious! We buy our sunflower seeds, not nuts I know, but...at Whole Foods, their 365 brand. I may try their other nuts sometimes. We also have a hard time with nuts because you are right, most are processed on same lines as wheat. No thanks!

Oh, also the almonds we buy have no MSG!

I buy mine at Trader Joes. Nuts are listed on their gluten free list to I'm assuming. Prices seem good too I think

Just wondering, are the cashews sold at your Costco labeled with a, "Packed on" warning??? I stopped buying them, because I continued to experience set-back issues with my diet. I would be happy to find out that they are safe to eat...

I looked at the back of my almonds and cashews and yes there was a warning, but not on my walnuts which I dont understand. lol I stopped buying cashews because my dh and I can never put the dang jar down.

I am not sure if they are 100% safe, I should call Kirkland

I buy Planters brand and have not had a problem so far, but I have with some of the other brands.
