Choose unroasted organic cashews with cashews as the only ingredient if you want a plain snack to enjoy with drinks that also goes well with yoghurt; Albert Heijn lists both uses for its 400 g option. If you want roasted nuts without added salt, check the ingredients of an unsalted option: the AH and BIO+ products reviewed contain sunflower oil. For a deliberately salted organic snack, BIO+ at PLUS is one option; PLUS lists 0.7 g of salt per 100 g for this variety.
You’re looking for organic cashews without added salt and want to know whether they contain oil too. So compare the full ingredients list rather than relying on the preparation description alone; the AH 400 g option reviewed lists only organic cashew nuts.
You want a salted snack, but organic origins are still important to you. Check the organic label, ingredients and salt content on the exact pack; the BIO+ options reviewed at PLUS are available in salted and unsalted varieties.
You want to serve cashews at different times, for example with drinks or stirred into yoghurt. Albert Heijn lists both uses for its organic unroasted option; check that the ingredients suit your preferences for oil and salt.
First check the organic label on the exact pack, then choose according to how the cashews are prepared, the ingredients and the quantity that suits your needs.
| What to consider | What to check when buying | Who is this important for? |
|---|---|---|
| Organic label | Check the label and control code on the exact variety; a natural appearance or preparation method is no substitute for doing so. | If organic origins are your main priority, check the pack before choosing based on flavour or preparation. Around 29% of consumers put this organic assurance first. |
| Salt, oil and preparation | Read the ingredients alongside the preparation description. PLUS lists 0.075 g of salt per 100 g for the BIO+ unsalted option reviewed and 0.7 g for the salted option. | If you mainly want to know whether the flavour is plain, roasted or salted, check both the salt and oil content. This is the main reason for around 29% of consumers. |
| For snacks and breakfast | Choose ingredients that suit both occasions. Albert Heijn lists yoghurt and snacks as uses for its 400 g unroasted option. | If you’re looking for one option to enjoy with drinks and, for example, with yoghurt, versatility matters most to you. Around 21% of consumers put this use first. |
| Quantity and storage | Compare the net weight of the exact pack with how often you’ll use it, and follow the storage instructions. The AH unroasted option reviewed contains 400 g; the AH and BIO+ options mentioned contain 200 g. | If you want to choose a pack that suits how often you serve cashews, consider its size and how to store it. This is the main consideration for around 21% of consumers. |
The unsalted options from Albert Heijn and BIO+ reviewed contain sunflower oil. So the word ‘unsalted’ doesn’t tell you whether the pack contains cashews and nothing else.
Read the ingredients list alongside the preparation description, and choose based on the full list of ingredients.

No, that requirement doesn’t apply in every case.

Imported products are subject to separate conditions.
No. Albert Heijn describes its 200 g organic unsalted cashews as roasted and lists sunflower oil. The 400 g organic unroasted option lists only cashew nuts as an ingredient. So check both the preparation description and ingredients list.
That depends on the ingredients you want at breakfast. Albert Heijn suggests adding its 400 g organic unroasted cashews to yoghurt; the ingredients list contains only organic cashew nuts. An organic label alone doesn’t tell you whether other varieties contain oil or salt.
Check and keep the ingredients and allergen information on the exact pack. The BIO+ options reviewed contain cashews and may contain peanuts; the packaging also warns that they pose a choking risk for young children.
Follow the warning for the exact product and batch. On 20 May 2026, the NVWA issued a warning about Trader Joe’s 170 g unsalted cashews with barcode 2003020120930 and best-before date 23-09-2026 because they may contain metal fragments: do not eat these cashews. The fact that the best-before date has passed does not make a pack from the batch mentioned safe to eat.
