I love almonds in most anyway presented. I like them toasted, salted, unsalted, whole, slivered, as a paste. I'll tell you another way I like them.
In the can! No, . . . in these cans. These are the CVS Gold Emblem brand and they are dee-licious!! Sometimes the store brand of anything is a little off. Not quite the same as the name brand. Not so here. These are as wonderful as any of the name brand canned almonds. I would highly recommend both the habanero barbeque and the wasabi soy. As you would expect, the wasabi soy are a little hot, but not so much that they bring tears to your eyes. Just the right bite. These are a good snack for anyone, but especially for diabetics. The carbs and sugar content are very low. Both flavors have 6g of carbohydrate and 2 grams of sugar per serving. A serving is 1/4 cup or about 28 pieces. So much better than potato chips or any of the other usual snack foods which are full of carbs. I find that 28 pieces is enough of a snack for me. They are filling. So if you are diabetic, like me, or just someone watching the waist, try substituting almonds in place of a bag of potato chips. A delicious snack that will not have you guilt-ridden later on.
