Lightly Salted Almonds

These are whole almonds roasted in vegetable oil with a light sea salt coating, and the nutrition is genuinely solid: one 28 gram handful gives you 6 grams of protein, 3 grams of fiber, and just 1 gram of sugar with none of it added. The standout is the sodium, only 40 milligrams per serving, which is roughly a third to half what you get in regular roasted salted almonds, so the lightly salted claim holds up. The one thing worth knowing is that these are not dry roasted, they are cooked in canola, safflower and/or sunflower oil, so if you are actively avoiding seed oils the raw or dry roasted version is a cleaner choice. For most health minded snackers this is a whole food, minimally processed pick that does what it says.
