While there are four main methods of pasteurizing almonds, steam processing, high heat treatment (roasting), blanching and highly toxic fumigation treatment with propylene oxide (PPO), two of them are the primary methods that are used most often.. These two are steam processing and PPO fumigation.Steam processing is the method delineated to the organic sector of the almond industry. The cleanest method of pasteurizing almonds.

All almonds grown in the USA are pasteurized, even the only panic ones, unless they are sold from a "roadside stand" or from Spain and now I'm hearing China. I'm not familiar with Spain's farming regulations are but China I have to question.

Yes!! Do not buy these nuts. They also add some kind of oil without noting it on the label. Save your money

Any that are grown in the US are pasteurized. If my memory serves me right they are. I will do further research. If they ate grown in Europe they are not pasteurized but the cost is astrinomical

Peanut oil is listed as one of the ingredients. That probably means that the nuts are roasted, although this is not stated on package. It is possible, I guess, that the nuts are only tossed and coated with a small amount of peanut oil--I just don't know for sure.

I bought this product and they were unsalted raw nuts. I was very happy with the freshness.

This is the canned, powdered milk. It is processed with high heat, so yes, it is pasteurized first, then dried and powdered. The canned "wet" milk is also pasteurized. Let me warn you : "raw" milk is not safe nor is it any better for you or "more healthy". Food is really just simple chemistry, but then so are viruses and bacteria, which are present in raw milk. Trust me. And your body won't know the difference between "raw" and pasteurized. As we say, "it's all in your mind"! Really. Best of Luck, and thank you for asking. :)

By law almonds have to be pasteurized because of a few people gotmsick kkksick from them a couple years ago. There are three methods to pasteurize and one of them is with a highly toxic chemical that has industrial uses and even the huge rifle industry has quit using it because of its toxicity. Heating slightly is another method -Trader Joes does that. They are labeled raw but are not. Forgot the third method - maybe blanching. Google it. I took a package back to Costco because of this.

There is NO indication on the packaging or on the Amazon site that these are non-GMO almonds or organic. They are raw (i.e. not cooked or roasted) - not sure if that answers your question about pasteurization.

You should contact the seller. In my experience, raw nuts are never salted.

They are NOT organic, and they are NOT GMO. I contacted the company and this was their reply... "Our almonds are conventionally grown - conventionally grown products, use fertilizers and pesticides which allow for higher yield, out of season growth, greater resistance, and greater longevity. After growth, the almonds used in our natural almond flour are then steam pasteurized. The blanched almonds are considered pasteurized when they go through the blanching process (which uses steam to remove the skins to get the white color of blanched flour). Additionally, all of our almonds are non-GMO." They are NOT organic, and they are NOT GMO. I contacted the company and this was their reply...

Not sure. The packaging does not specifically state that they are, but there are no nuts listed in the ingredients. Not sure if they are manufactured in a facility that handles nuts though.

I am not sure. I purchased mine for using in a recipe not just for eating. I put mine in the freezer shortly after arriving so I am not sure how to tell if they are stale or not. They seemed good when I received them. Just for eating, I do prefer roasted nuts because it does bring out their flavor more.

There is nothing on the packaging that suggests these Pistachios are pasteurized. The word "pasteurized" does not appear anywhere on the label. They are roasted, shelled and sea salted though.

No I have not refrigerate it. I treat it as ordinary flour. .....but I have recently found out that the FDA has ordered all almonds in the US to be pasteurized. As a result most our almonds (if not all) are being pasteurized using Propylene oxide is a known carcinogenic for cancer. No one should consume US almonds. I recommend that you google "FDA pasteurized almonds" to verify. I personally will be using coconut flour

Due to a new law passed by Congress all nuts grown in the US have to be pasteurized. I have found unpasturized ones on Amazon that come from Spain and Italy.
