As Food Provider in Chief of our household I take good nutrition seriously. I have slowly but surely been changing over to more nutritious foods and eliminating highly processed empty foods that are the normal American SAD (standard American diet) diet. The more nutrient rich and organic I can make my cooking the better. So when More Than Alive offered to send me some items for review I was thrilled.
More Than Alive is a company that carries food storage, high quality water filters, bulk foods, bulk herbs, supplements, books, and clothing accessories. They focus on natural health and promoting health through high quality products.
They have an extensive Bulk Foods sections where they carry things like nut and seed, nut flours, black teas, spices, and cacao powder to name a few.
They sent me their Nut Package for review. I use nuts allot in my cooking and snack foods. Nuts are extreamly healthy. They contain tons of minerals and healthy fats. The minerals are especially important to the healthy function of our bodies. I received one pound each of Raw Almonds, Raw Cashews, Raw Walnuts, and Raw Pecans.
I used some of the almonds and pecans in my Homemade Healthy Granola. The almonds were big and plump and had a great sweet taste. The pecans were huge and full halves. The quality is obviously very high. The cashews we have just been eating out of hand as a snack and with yogurt. They are really yummy. I havenet used the walnuts because I am saving them for holiday pies, but I did sample a few and they are very good. Sometimes walnuts can be bitter but these are not.

I would recommend these nuts to anyone, they are at a good price and would make great additions to the diet or use in holiday baking.
