Very healthy snack! I love these and feel like I found another great product for a great price from Swansons. They are fresh and tasty and when in need of a quick fill me up snack, I can have a few and feel satisfied 'til the next meal. March 24, 2012
fresh and tasty These nuts were fresh and sweet. Just two a day and your selenium intake is complete! March 23, 2012
Good product, good price These arrived in good condition. I bought them because they were a good price. I'd buy them again from Swanson. By the way, from the research I've done, Brazil nuts do not need to be soaked first (most nuts need to be soaked first to release the enzyme inhibitor). January 29, 2012
Excellent Nut I get my selenium with brazil nuts a couple times a week. These are good quality, tasty, and a great price. I make a delicious very simple fruitcake with brazils, dates, a little binder, and everyone raves about it. December 11, 2011
Almost an Excellent This product always comes to me fresh. I would like it to be organic. This is my only challenge with the product. Otherwise, it is delicious and very healthy. August 19, 2011
Great Super fresh and delish, what a good price. Two of these nuts provide daily selenium needs. August 6, 2011
Brazil nuts Brazil nuts are extremely hard to find anywhere; I was so glad to find them from Swanson. These are very fresh and very delicious. Supreme source of selenium, which most people are deficient in. June 25, 2011
remember? When I was a kid, these nuts, in their shells, were always the last to be eaten out of the nut bowl. Now that I have found them again, they are a regular part of my diet. Their sweet, buttery taste makes me smile and wonder why I never appreciated them more. Try them! February 17, 2011
Very fresh and yummy These were so fresh and good. I really recommend them. December 30, 2010
LOOOVE THESE!! I absolutely love these! 3 positives: they are organic, they are pre-shelled, and they are nice and crunchy fresh. I keep them in the refrigerator and that seems to enhance the crunch and fresh taste. They have a wonderful crunchiness (like macadamia nuts do) and a rich creamy taste. Very satisfying having 5 or 6 when you have hunger pangs, but don't want to eat a meal, which makes them handy on the go. November 30, 2010
