When choosing a snack portion, focus on the serving size on the label rather than just the net weight: according to the product information, the Duyvis 125 g pack reviewed contains 4–5 servings. A larger pack can be a practical alternative if you measure out a portion in advance. Also check the ingredients, allergen information and the rules at the cinema you’re visiting.
You want to decide in advance how much to take, rather than treating the whole pack as a single snack portion. Albert Heijn lists 4–5 servings for the Duyvis pack reviewed; for AH cashew nuts, the stated serving size is 25 g.
You’re looking for a variety with no added salt and also comparing how it’s prepared and what’s in it. Albert Heijn lists sunflower oil in the ingredients for the baked variety reviewed; PLUS lists cashew nuts as the only ingredient in its unsalted, unroasted cashew nuts.
You prefer a savoury or salted variety and are happy to share a larger pack or portion it out in advance. Albert Heijn’s product information describes the Duyvis variety reviewed as savoury; Jumbo lists salt among the ingredients in its salted cashew nuts.
| What to consider | What should you check? | Who is this important to? |
|---|---|---|
| Portion and packaging | Compare the net weight with the serving size on the label and the number of servings. Decide whether you’re looking for an individual sachet or can measure out a portion yourself. | I want to take a suitable amount with me and not guess based on the net weight. Around 34% of consumers prioritise portion convenience. |
| Savoury flavour | Check the exact variety, ingredients and salt content. Oven-roasted doesn’t in itself tell you whether a product is salted. | I’m specifically looking for a savoury or salted snack and want to choose a variety to match. Around 20% of consumers prioritise this flavour preference. |
| Unsalted ingredients | Check whether salt has been added and read the ingredients list; unsalted doesn’t automatically mean that no oil has been added. | I want an unsalted variety and also pay attention to how it’s prepared. Around 20% of consumers prioritise these ingredients. |
| Allergens | Read the ingredients and warnings on the pack of the exact variety you’re buying. Distinguish between ingredients and possible traces. | I’m buying for someone who needs allergen information and want to check the pack carefully. Around 13% of consumers prioritise this check. |
| Cost per snack occasion | Compare current prices on a like-for-like basis and consider how much of a larger pack you’ll actually use. | I’m planning several snack occasions and want to portion the pack myself to weigh up the cost. Around 13% of consumers focus mainly on the cost per snack occasion. |
The net weight doesn’t tell you how many servings the manufacturer lists. Albert Heijn’s product information gives 4–5 servings for Duyvis 125 g and states a serving size of 25 g for AH cashew nuts 170 g.
Check both the number of servings and the serving size on the label, then decide in advance how much you want to take.
If a pack contains several servings, portion it out in advance if you want to take one measured snack portion with you.
The AH cashew nuts reviewed are unsalted, but Albert Heijn lists sunflower oil as an ingredient. PLUS lists only cashew nuts in the ingredients for the unsalted, unroasted variety reviewed.
Compare the full ingredients list and preparation method, rather than relying on the word ‘unsalted’ alone.
Rules can vary depending on the cinema and the type of visit. In an FAQ about school visits, Pathé Business says that food and drink brought from outside may not be consumed in its cinemas.
Check the cinema’s rules for your visit before buying a snack to eat there.

No, not for the Duyvis variety reviewed: Albert Heijn lists 4–5 servings, with an average of 30 g per serving. So the net weight and the serving size on the label tell you different things.
Check the rules at the cinema you’re visiting. In its FAQ for school visits, Pathé Business says that food and drink brought from outside may not be consumed in its cinemas. That doesn’t in itself tell you what the rules are at every cinema or for every type of visit.
Read the ingredients list and any warnings on the pack of the exact variety. The NVWA explains that the 14 allergens specified by law must be clearly identifiable in the ingredients list; a warning about possible traces is not the same as an ingredient.
No. The Albert Heijn, Jumbo and PLUS product pages reviewed warn that young children can choke on nuts. So don’t assume that whole cashew nuts are suitable for a young child.
