Choose a box of individual bags if you want to take a sealed pack on different days of your trip or share with fellow travellers: according to Foods & Goods, the Duyvis boxes reviewed contain ten 125 g bags, not ten small single-serving portions. If you want to put together your own lunchbox portions, a larger bag is an alternative, but you’ll need to portion out the cashews in advance and store any opened leftovers somewhere dry in a tightly sealed container, as advised by the Voedingscentrum. Also take salt, ingredients and allergen information into account. According to the MDL Fonds, whole nuts are not suitable for children under four because of the risk of choking.
You want to take a sealed bag for your journey and share its contents with your fellow travellers. Foods & Goods lists Duyvis boxes containing ten 125 g bags; these inner bags are not necessarily small single-serving portions.
You prepare several snacks in advance and decide how many cashews to put in each container. Albert Heijn lists unsalted bags of 250 and 500 g; Jumbo and PLUS have reviewed 200 g bags.
You check the salt, additives and allergen information first. Unsalted, unroasted and oven-roasted are different product characteristics, so check the ingredients and information for the exact variety.
If you’re choosing cashews for train journeys, sharing or lunchboxes, the main things to consider depend on how you plan to take and use them.
| What to consider | What should you look for? | Who is this most relevant to? |
|---|---|---|
| Individual sharing bags | Check how many inner bags there are and how many grams each one contains. | If I’m sharing with fellow travellers, I want to be able to take a sealed bag on different days of my trip. This is the top priority for around 33% of consumers. |
| Lunchbox portions | Compare the weight of the bag with the amount you want to portion out. Use 25 g as a unit for calculations only, not as a recommendation for every traveller. | For several lunchboxes, I want to put together my own portions rather than take a whole sharing bag each time. Measuring out lunchbox portions is the top priority for around 27% of consumers. |
| Salt, ingredients and allergens | Read the ingredients list, salt content per 100 g and current allergen information for each variety. | If I’m keeping an eye on salt, additives and allergens, I want to check the exact variety before sharing the nuts. Choosing ingredients is the top priority for around 20% of consumers. |
| Stock and storage | Consider whether you’ll use the full amount and how you’ll store any opened leftovers somewhere dry in a tightly sealed container. | I want to choose an amount I can use and store any leftovers appropriately. Managing stock is the main consideration for around 20% of consumers. |

Check the weight of each inner bag and decide how much you want to take with you.

According to the NVWA, allergen information must appear on the label of prepacked foods. Since 1 January 2026, the NVWA has also been checking the rules on warnings about unintended cross-contamination. Check the label for the exact variety; product information is not an individual guarantee of allergen safety.
The NVWA warning dated 20 May 2026 concerns Trader Joe’s unsalted cashews, 170 g, with a best-before date of 23-09-2026, due to possible metal fragments. Do not eat the affected cashews. The date has now passed, but the warning remains relevant if you still have stock matching this exact product description; it does not automatically apply to other packs or batches.
