Are these almonds treated with PPO (propylene oxide)?

Don't know about ppo, but these were the worst, driest old nasty excuse for almonds I ever regretted buying

Joan, The box in which the fruit is packaged contains a lot of information about the fruit, e.g., no preservatives, but there is no indication that the plant in which the fruit is processed also processes peanuts. If it did, the company would probably need to reveal that fact. To be safe you might call the company or contact it on its website.

Amazon is showing me that you are asking about Anthony's coconut flour, which is made from coconuts and not almonds. Not sure if you meant to ask this question about a different product or not.

There is no sweetener added, just palm fruit oil which I believed is used for consistency because I imagine in their processing they lose some of the oil from the almond. Ideally, I wish they added nothing.

Do not have the bag anymore... kids ate them all up. I never paid much attention to the label almonds, coconut, dark cocoa, sugar (and other sugars) but a complete list I don't have. sorry.

I actually asked the manufacturer this and this is the response I got: "The almonds in our Almond Butter are steam pasteurized. Steam treatments are surface treatments only. Multiple proprietary steam treatments are currently being utilized by the industry which meets USDA Organic Program standards. The short bursts of steam do not impact the nutritional integrity of the almond. These treatments do not "cook" proteins or destroy vitamins and minerals. The nutritional and sensory characteristics of the almonds remain unchanged when treated with steam." So rest easy.. they were never sent to the PPO gas chamber. Thanks, Woodstock.

Copied verbatim from package:Ingredients: pitted California dried plums (prunes), potassium sorbate (as a preservative)

I don't have the box any more or any of the packets from it. I normally would tell you that almonds should be kosher but today they can be packaged in an non-kosher facility. Hopefully some else can tell you. If not see if you can find this brand in a store.

Unfortunately, it's roasted almonds. I didn't know that when I ordered. The image in the description shows "Blanched almonds, palm fruit oil". The product I received says "Blanched roasted almonds, palm fruit oil". I wish I had seen this Q&A; before I ordered.

About these particular nuts, I cannot comment. But for your general information and in answer to the comment by Leann McCamey: I am sorry to have to inform you that the FDA specifically allows steam-heat pasteurized almonds to be labeled "RAW" Yes, even though they are "cooked" by being pasteurized, the FDA allows (and perhaps encourages) the industry to continue to label them raw. The other method of "pasteurization" is fumigation by toxic gas (my memory is not screening up the chemical right now, just google for it) and those also are "raw", I am not sure how "organic" they are according to the USDA's definition of "organic". Of course none of this fits MY definition of safe, wholesome, raw or organic. About these particular nuts, I cannot comment.

Yes. Worked great. Added nothing. Just Almonds. Tried adding a tiny bit of honey. Too sweet

I've never seen a disclaimer about whether or not they are processed in a facility that also processes nuts, or anything about containing traces of nuts, but I certainly wouldn't take that as confirmation that it doesn't. Also, the product contains CHIA SEEDS, so if you are concerned about a reaction due to a nut allergy, that is something you may want to take into consideration.

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.

If your an expert on almonds, you'll notice the difference. Personally it was for a recipe and I'd rather have the prussic acid (cyanide) contained in raw almonds before I pay that price for them again!

Yes they are peanut free. I just contacted them myself and the email indicated they only process almonds and pistachios, no peanut any either facility. The almonds and pistachios are are processed in separate facilities as well. We have peanut allergy too, my kids are eating right now!
