Who is this choice relevant to?

Travel companions who want to share

Want to share individual snacks on the go without first dividing up a large bag? Jumbo lists a pack containing 14 boxes and describes its raisin boxes as handy for taking with you.

Lunch-box packers choosing portions

Would you like to decide how much dried fruit goes in each lunch box? Compare individual boxes with portioning fruit yourself from a larger pack, and check the ingredients and nutritional information on the current packaging.

Travellers shopping at Schiphol

Albert Heijn is confirmed as a supermarket at Schiphol, with two additional to-go locations on Plaza. A shop listing doesn’t confirm that a particular product is in stock. Hand-luggage rules and the import rules for your destination are also separate matters.

What should you look for when choosing?

Individual sharing boxes

Choose these if: you want to hand out snacks or add them to a lunch box individually, without portioning them first.

Bear in mind: the number of boxes alone doesn’t tell you how many grams are in each one.

Portioning it yourself from a larger bag

Choose this if: you have time to divide up the amount for each lunch box or travel snack in advance.

Bear in mind: a larger bag doesn’t automatically contain individual snack packs.

What to consider What should you look for? Who is this important for?
Individual portions Check whether the pack contains individual boxes or bags, how many there are and the weight of each portion. Jumbo lists 14 boxes for Jumbo Snoep Rozijntjes Doosjes 14 Stuks. If I want to share snacks without portioning them out of a large bag first, I look at the number of individual packs; around 42% of consumers in this situation give ease of sharing top priority.
Portion size and ingredients Check the weight per box and read the ingredients and nutritional information on the current packaging. If you have a relevant allergy, check the allergen information too. For my lunch box, I want to be able to adjust the amount myself and know what’s in the product; around 33% of consumers give portion size and ingredients top priority.
Shop and travel requirements Check shop information and product availability separately. Also check the hand-luggage rules and, if you want to take food with you after arrival, the requirements at your destination. If I want to plan both my shopping at Schiphol and the rest of my trip, I check the shop and the relevant travel requirements; around 25% of consumers give airport planning top priority.

Common mistakes

  • Assuming a large bag is a multipack

    A 375 g or 500 g pack doesn’t mean the contents are divided into individual portions.

    Check how many individual boxes or bags there are. Choose a large bag only if portioning it yourself suits your routine.

  • Going by the fruit name on the front alone

    The product name doesn’t tell you everything about the ingredients or allergen information on the pack. The Netherlands Nutrition Centre also distinguishes between dried fruit with and without added sugar.

    Read the ingredients and nutritional information for the specific product. According to the Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority, allergen information for prepacked products must be shown on the label. Check the current packaging if this is relevant to you.

  • Confusing a shop at Schiphol with product availability

    Shop listings from Schiphol and Albert Heijn confirm that shops are there, not that a specific multipack is in stock.

    Check for the product you want separately, and take your travel date and the shop’s opening hours into account.

  • Confusing hand-luggage rules with permission to import food

    Hand-luggage rules and the requirements for goods you take into another country cover different things.

    Check your destination’s rules if you want to take any leftover dried fruit with you after arrival.

Brands and shops to compare

Worth considering for dried fruit and shopping at Schiphol. Schiphol confirms there is an Albert Heijn supermarket and two to-go locations on Plaza.

  • Albert Heijn lists products including AH Rozijnen vriendjes and AH Hamsterchef Rozijnen.

Jumbo

Worth considering if you’re looking for individual raisin boxes to share or pack for someone.

Lidl

Lidl’s Snoeprozijntjes product listing makes it a shop worth comparing for raisin snacks.

  • The name confirms that it’s a raisin snack.
  • The product name doesn’t say how many individual portions the pack contains; check the specific pack size.

ALDI

The Dutch product listing for Trader Joe's rozijnen 500 g is worth considering if you want to make up your own portions.

  • The product listing confirms a 500 g bag.
  • A 500 g bag isn’t a multipack with confirmed individual boxes.

PLUS

The PLUS Sultana rozijnen product listing is worth considering if you want to make up your own portions.

  • PLUS lists a 375 g stand-up pouch.
  • A 375 g stand-up pouch isn’t the same as individually packed snack portions.

Dirk

Dirk’s range of raisins is worth considering if you’re looking for a larger pack to portion yourself.

Frequently asked questions

Does dry dried fruit come under the 100-millilitre hand-luggage rule?

No. The Government of the Netherlands describes that rule as applying to liquids and gels, not dry dried fruit. This doesn’t mean you’re allowed to take every food product into your destination country; check the rules that apply at your destination.

Can I shop at Albert Heijn at Schiphol?

Yes. Schiphol confirms there is an Albert Heijn supermarket and two to-go locations on Plaza. Albert Heijn also lists a shop on Aankomstpassage. Before your travel date, check the opening hours and whether the product you’re looking for is in stock.

Does allergen information have to be shown on prepacked raisins?

Yes. According to the Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority, allergen information for prepacked products must be shown on the label. The NVWA lists sulphites as one example of an allergen. This doesn’t mean every raisin product contains sulphites or is suitable for every allergy.

How should I store leftover raisins after my trip?

For opened raisins, the Netherlands Nutrition Centre gives a general storage recommendation of 6–9 months in a kitchen cupboard. Follow the instructions on your packaging too; the general timeframe isn’t a guarantee for every variety. The Netherlands Nutrition Centre advises looking out for changes such as drying out, becoming hard, discolouration and mould.

What should I do with old Jumbo Snoeprozijntjes covered by the recall?

Don’t eat the pack if it has barcode 8718452534326 and a best-before date of 28-07-2026. NU.nl reported in November 2025 that the recall applied to this specific pack. The warning concerns that identified old stock, not all current packs.
