If you want to do as little preparation as possible for your morning snack, choose a multipack and check how many grams are in each individual pack. If you want to decide the portion size yourself, you can divide a larger bag in advance. Choose unsalted if that’s your priority, or a savoury roasted variety if flavour matters more. A snack bag isn’t automatically a single snack portion.
You want to grab a small almond snack before heading out, so you’re looking at a multipack and the quantity in each individual pack. Albert Heijn lists an unsalted 4-pack, but the pack title alone doesn’t tell you how many grams are in each one.
You’re looking for unsalted almonds and also choosing between roasted and unroasted, or whether to portion out a larger pack yourself. ALDI describes roasted unsalted almonds, while PLUS lists an unroasted, unsalted variety. The Dutch Nutrition Centre includes unsalted nuts in its Wheel of Five dietary guidelines.
You’re choosing mainly for flavour and how the almonds are prepared, and deciding how much to take with you from a larger bag. Duyvis describes Almonds Original as oven-roasted without added oil or fat; ALDI also lists roasted varieties with salt or a smoky flavour.

Bear in mind: Duyvis describes a 125 g pack, but that doesn’t automatically make it a single snack portion.
For a snack on the go, the key considerations are the quantity per pack, whether it’s salted and the flavour you’re after.
| What to consider | What to look for when buying | Who is this important for? |
|---|---|---|
| Convenience on the go and quantity | Check how many individual packs there are and the weight of each one.

Around 42% of consumers prioritise convenience on the go and quantity. |
| Unsalted ingredients | Check the exact variety and the label.
