My boys and I have an affinity for nuts and when I had the opportunity to try Sante Nuts, I jumped on board! Since I’m always looking for new snacks that are healthy for my boys to eat, I was willing to try these and hope they enjoyed them!These nuts didn’t just come in any old box. No they came in a very cool display so that we could be more mindful on how we tried them! I liked that because the boys didn’t just dive in with nuts flying everywhere.
Buddy tried the Candied Walnuts to begin with. From there he went to the Candied Pecans. I knew of all four flavors, if they were candied, he’d probably like them. Unfortunately, they weren’t a big hit with him.
Next came Doodle’s turn to try them. He also tried the candied nuts first. I knew neither of them would care for the Roasted Salted Pecans or the Garlic Almonds. He absolutely loved the candied nuts! He and I pretty much finished both bags within a few days! They were very hard to put down and not eat more than a handful!
I liked the Roasted Salted Pecans, but they didn’t seem much different than a pecan nut you’d get anywhere else. The Garlic Almonds were probably the ones that I didn’t gorge my way through. Not because I didn’t like them, but because they weren’t my favorite. I liked the flavor, but I think I’m more of a candied Pecan/Walnut girl.
Here’s a little bit about Sante Nuts:
“Our meticulous process eliminates any trace of bitterness in the nuts and, most importantly, helps minimize absorption of the organic canola oil we use for roasting. This technique has lots of benefits:
• A lighter nut with amazing crunch
• Less oil = less fat per nut = a healthier nut
• Gives the nuts a perfect, wafer-thin coating of pure cane sugar
• More nuts per ounce than other brands
We always roast by hand in small batches (with lots of care and love) so that every nut in every bag is consistently delicious.”

you would think I wouldn't like reading product reviews – but when the're like this – honest and open – and a real story told of how you shared them with your family – and who liked what – with a little bit of the company sprinkled in. This I hearted. "Less fat more peanut" – call them and tell them they should use that for a slogan – and if they pay you with peanuts – mail me some :) God bless you Mimi.
I'm guessing that I'd like the saltier, rather than sweet ones. Now I need to go see what all they have. I LOVE almonds!
