Choose based on the number of individually sealed packs and the portions you want to make yourself. Albert Heijn’s bundle contains three separate 190 g packs, not three small lunchbox bags, so you’ll need to portion them yourself for lunchboxes. A resealable larger pack could also work for this, while a savoury option is different from unsalted almonds.
You want to know how many snacks you’ll get from a pack and whether you’ll need to portion them yourself. Keep the pack weight separate from the serving size listed by Albert Heijn. For children, the texture of the food also needs consideration.
You want to share almonds or divide several packs between people. Check how many individual packs there are, how the almonds are prepared and how to store an opened pack. Albert Heijn and Duyvis product information distinguishes between bundles and portions within a single bag.
You’re buying for regular use and don’t want to open more packs at once than you need. A resealable pack and clear storage instructions can help you plan; choose an amount that suits your own consumption. Voedingscentrum advises storing unsalted almonds in a cool, dark and dry place.
First decide whether you mainly need separate packs for your cupboard, contents that are easy to share, or lunchbox portions you can measure out yourself.
| What to consider | What to look for when buying | Who is this important for? |
|---|---|---|
| Lunchbox portions | Check the number of individual packs and the weight of each one. Albert Heijn’s 3-pack contains three separate 190 g packs; the stated serving size of 25 g is not a separate pack. | If you pack lunchboxes, you’ll want to know how many portions you need to measure out yourself. Around 36% of consumers prioritise preparing lunchbox portions. |
| Sharing and snacking together | Compare the number of sealed packs with the contents of a single bag. Duyvis says its Oven roasted variety contains 4–5 portions in one 125 g pack, not in separate bags. | If you’re splitting a supply between people or places, check how many individual packs there are. Around 29% of consumers consider ease of sharing their top priority. |
| Preparation and ingredients | Check the ingredients, preparation method and salt content of the exact variety. Albert Heijn lists 1.1 g of salt per 100 g for Duyvis Oven roasted. | If you’re looking for unsalted almonds, don’t confuse a flavour mix and salt content with the preparation method. Around 21% of consumers focus mainly on ingredients. |
| Quantity and storage | Choose a pack that suits how much you use, and check the seal, best-before date and storage instructions. Voedingscentrum advises storing unsalted almonds in a cool, dark and dry place. | If you’re stocking up, you won’t want to open more at once than you can use conveniently. Around 14% of consumers give the most weight to quantity and storage. |
The AH 3-pack contains separate packs of the linked 190 g product. It doesn’t contain three small snack portions.
Check the weight of each pack and how the bundle is supplied. Choose based on your eating occasions, not just the word ‘multipack’.
Measuring and packing portions for lunchboxes takes time to prepare and requires extra packaging.
The Duyvis Oven roasted variety reviewed contains a savoury flavour mix and 1.1 g of salt per 100 g. The fact that the manufacturer describes a different Almonds Original variety as roasted without added oil or fat doesn’t make this variety unsalted.
Check the ingredients and salt content on the specific pack separately from the preparation method.
Almonds can lose quality or spoil if they aren’t stored correctly. Buying a larger pack doesn’t mean you can ignore the storage instructions.
Plan how much you’ll use, don’t open more packs than you need, and follow the best-before date and instructions on the packaging. Voedingscentrum advises keeping unsalted almonds in a cool, dark and dry place.

No. For the Duyvis pack reviewed, 4–5 portions refers to the contents of one 125 g bag. Only an explicit statement that the pack contains separate bags means you’ll receive individual snack bags.
Divide the total weight in grams by the amount you choose to put in each lunchbox. For example, Albert Heijn lists a pack weight of 190 g and a serving size of 25 g. These are different details, and the pack doesn’t contain separately wrapped portions.
No. Voedingscentrum warns that whole nuts can cause choking. Consider whether a child can chew the texture safely, and follow Voedingscentrum’s guidance on supervision and eating. A small pack doesn’t automatically make whole nuts suitable.
No. Albert Heijn’s product information lists a savoury flavour mix and 1.1 g of salt per 100 g for Duyvis Oven roasted. So check the salt content and ingredients of the specific variety separately from how it is prepared.
Always follow the label on the specific pack first. Voedingscentrum advises storing unsalted almonds in a cool, dark and dry place in an airtight container. For the Duyvis variety reviewed, the product page recommends storing it in a light- and airtight tin after opening.
