If you regularly take cashew nuts with you, portioning them yourself from an unsalted shop-bought pack is a good option if you don’t mind preparing them in advance. If you want to head out without weighing them, check the serving information: the Duyvis 125 g pack and AH 170 g pack reviewed here contain multiple servings, while a 3-pack may consist of three full-size packs.
You regularly take a snack with you and want to divide a shop-bought pack at home for different occasions. Compare packs by the same quantity of cashew nuts and store the portions in airtight containers. The packs and preparation methods mentioned here vary.
You want to take a pack with you without weighing anything out first. Look out for the difference between a small retail pack, multiple servings as stated on the label and a bundle of full-size packs.
You’re looking for unsalted cashew nuts and also want to check how they’re prepared and what’s in them. Unsalted, unroasted and made without added oil describe different product characteristics.
First decide how much you want to take for each snack break, then check the net weight, serving information and preparation method for the specific product.
| What to consider | What should you check? | Who is this important for? |
|---|---|---|

AH states that its 170 g pack has a 25 g serving size and 7 servings; Duyvis gives an average serving of 30 g and 4–5 servings for its 125 g pack. | If I want to get several snack breaks out of one pack, I need to know how many servings I’ll actually have. Around 33% of consumers prioritise the amount for the same quantity of cashew nuts. |
| Ready to take with you | Check whether the pack contains a single snack portion or multiple servings. The AH 3-pack consists of three 170 g packs, not three small portion bags. | If you want to head out without any preparation, look for a pack that’s practical to take with you and doesn’t need dividing first.

Around 13% of consumers prioritise this flavour preference. |

If there’s a warning, check the exact product name, barcode and best-before date. | If you need to check allergens or a specific safety warning before buying, look at the exact pack. Around 7% of consumers put label safety first. |
