The catch

The catch is calorie density, not additives, with 160 calories packed into a modest 1 oz portion of about 28 nuts. (source)

The honest take

This is about as clean as a packaged snack gets, with a single ingredient list that reads simply almonds and 0mg of sodium per serving. One ounce, roughly 28 nuts, gives you 6g of protein, 3g of fiber, and 14g of mostly unsaturated fat with only 1g saturated, and the 1g of sugar is naturally occurring with no added sugar. There are no seed oils, no salt, and no sweeteners to work around, so the only real thing to watch is portion size. A health minded shopper reaching for real food over a bar or chip snack will find little to complain about here.
