Lunchboxes without weighing
You want to take an individual pack with you while studying or on the go, without portioning it out yourself first. Duyvis lists a multipack of 4 × 30 g; this pack size is not personalised nutritional advice.
Who are these packs suitable for?
A study group sharing supplies
You’re buying for several people or study breaks and want to decide how to divide up the supply. Check whether the pack contains individual sachets, and keep the ingredients and allergen information to hand when sharing them.
Preparing your own portions
You want to decide how much to have at each snack break and don’t mind portioning out the nuts. A larger bag or resealable pack may suit this approach; store the rest in a tightly sealed, dry place.
What should you look for when choosing?
First decide whether you want ready-to-go packs or would rather portion the nuts yourself. Then check the ingredients, packaging and label.
| What to consider | What to look for | Who is this most important for? |
|---|---|---|
| Individual portions | Check how many inner packs there are and the weight of each one; the total weight alone won’t tell you how many portions you can hand out straight away. | Packs that don’t need weighing are handy for lunchboxes or several study breaks; around 31% of consumers say that portability and portioning are their top priority. |
| Ingredients | Check the ingredients and make sure it’s the unsalted variety if that’s what you prefer. | If you’re particular about the types of nuts and are looking for an unsalted option, you’ll want to check the exact ingredients suit those eating them; around 23% of consumers prioritise ingredients. |
| Managing your supply | Check the total weight and whether the pack is resealable; a larger bag doesn’t automatically mean you’ll get individual portions. | If you portion the nuts out at home, it’s important to be able to store the rest properly; around 23% of consumers prioritise managing their supply and portioning it themselves. |
| Allergens when sharing | Read the allergen information and warnings on the exact pack, and keep the label to hand when portioning out the contents. | If you’re sharing snacks, you’ll want to check the information for the people who’ll be eating them; around 23% of consumers give allergen information the greatest weight in their decision. |
Common pitfalls
-
Mistaking a large bag for a multipack
A total weight of, say, 500 g doesn’t tell you how many individual packs are inside. Duyvis, by contrast, clearly lists Unsalted Nutmix Walnut as a multipack of 4 × 30 g.
Before planning how many lunchboxes or people you need to cater for, check how many inner packs there are and the weight of each one.
Portioning the nuts yourself takes preparation and may mean you need your own storage containers.
-
Losing the label when you share the snacks
The original packaging contains the ingredients and allergen information. Duyvis warns that some products may contain traces of peanuts and/or nuts.
Keep the packaging when making up your own portions, and check the information for the exact variety before sharing them.
-
Choosing a bulk pack without a suitable place to store it
Nuts are susceptible to mould, so they should be stored in a tightly sealed, dry place. The Netherlands Nutrition Centre says that keeping them somewhere cool, for example at 10 to 15 °C, is one option.
Choose an amount that suits how much you use, and check whether the pack is resealable; don’t assume it is just because it’s described as a ‘stand-up pouch’.
-
Treating the weight of a pack as personalised nutritional advice
The 30 g in the Duyvis multipack is a packaging specification. A pack size doesn’t automatically determine how much is right for each person.
Use the stated weight to plan your snack break, but don’t let the packaging decide how much you should eat.
Relevant brands to consider
Duyvis
Duyvis lists Unsalted Nutmix Walnut as a multipack for individual snack breaks.
- The manufacturer lists 4 × 30 g and almonds, walnuts, cashews and hazelnuts as ingredients.
- The fixed amount in each pack won’t suit everyone’s individual nutritional needs. Duyvis warns that the product may contain traces of peanuts and/or nuts.
Albert Heijn
The AH own-brand range offers unsalted nut mix in different total weights.
- Range information includes packs of 200 g and 500 g.
- The total weight doesn’t confirm whether a pack contains individual sachets or is resealable; check the specific packaging.

Jumbo’s own-brand range includes a 200 g Noten Mix Ongezouten, and it also lists the Duyvis multipack as a separate branded product.
- The Jumbo product page confirms the 200 g unsalted variety, which you can portion out yourself.

Lidl
Alesto is Lidl’s product range for nuts, dried fruit and party snacks, among other things.
- The range description makes Alesto worth considering for nut snacks.
- The general range information doesn’t confirm that every variety is unsalted or comes in individual portion packs; check the specific label.
Aldi

Frequently asked questions
Does a multipack always contain several small snack portions?
No. Check how many individual packs it contains and the weight of each one. For Duyvis Unsalted Nutmix Walnut, both the manufacturer and Jumbo list 4 × 30 g; that doesn’t automatically apply to other products with ‘multipack’ in the name.
How should you store nuts after portioning them yourself?
Store the remaining nuts in a tightly sealed, dry place. The Netherlands Nutrition Centre says that keeping them somewhere cool, for example at 10 to 15 °C, is one option. Also follow the storage instructions on your product’s packaging.
What allergen information should I check when sharing nuts?
Check the ingredients and warnings on the label of the exact pack, and keep that information to hand when portioning out the contents. According to the Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority, allergen information must appear on the label of prepacked foods; peanuts and nuts are listed separately.
What if I still have a recalled pack of ALDI cashews at home?
Do not eat Trader Joe’s Unsalted Cashew Nuts 170 g with barcode 2003020120930 and best-before date 23-09-2026.

The warning does not automatically apply to other ALDI nuts.
