If you want something you can take with you without any preparation, check the weight per bag: Duyvis has a confirmed multipack containing 20 bags of 60 g each. For a supply you can portion out yourself, there’s a Duyvis multipack with 10 bags of 235 g each. If you want unsalted peanuts, check the contents per pack and the product information for a multipack such as the AH 3-pack. The packaging doesn’t determine how much you’ll want to eat at lunchtime.
If you want to grab a sealed bag for your working day, compare the number of individual bags with the weight per bag. The pack size doesn’t automatically tell you what amount is right for your lunch. Foods & Goods and FOOX confirm the pack sizes; the Netherlands Nutrition Centre provides general nutritional information about peanuts.
If you pack your lunchbox at home and want unsalted peanuts, you can portion out an unsalted pack yourself. Product listings from Albert Heijn, Jumbo, Lidl, ALDI and PLUS in the Netherlands describe a range of pack sizes; the Netherlands Nutrition Centre recommends unsalted nuts. Peanuts can be part of your lunch without dictating what else you choose to eat.
If you’re buying for several occasions or to share, check the contents per bag and how to store opened packs. If you’re sharing, check the allergen information too. Foods & Goods confirms the Duyvis size of 10 × 235 g; the Netherlands Nutrition Centre and the Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority provide general storage advice and information about allergen labelling respectively.
First decide whether you want to take a sealed bag with you, measure out an amount yourself or share a supply. Then choose the variety that suits your preference.
| What to consider | What should you check? | Who is this important for? |
|---|---|---|
| Weight per bag | Check the number of individual bags and the weight per bag; consider whether you want to take the whole bag with you or portion it out. | If you want to take a sealed bag with you without weighing anything, the contents per bag are the main consideration. Around 25% of consumers make the right inner pack size their top priority. |
| Salted or unsalted | Check the variety, ingredients and nutritional information for the exact product. | If you’re looking for unsalted peanuts for lunch, choose based on the variety, not the number of bags. Around 25% of consumers put choosing unsalted first. |
| Portioning and storage | Check the number of larger inner packs, storage advice and best-before date; if sharing, check the allergen information. | If you’re buying a supply for repeated occasions or to share, portioning and storage are important too. Around 25% of consumers prioritise a shared supply and how it will be stored. |
| Total quantity | Compare the total weight and only take as much as you expect to use. | If you mainly want to match the quantity to how much you use, look beyond the number of packs. Around 25% of consumers make the total cost of use their top priority. |
A multipack with 20 bags doesn’t automatically contain 20 portions that are right for your lunch. The Duyvis portion pack contains 60 g per bag; the Netherlands Nutrition Centre’s general nutrition table uses 25 g as an example of a handful. This is a comparison of quantities, not a personal portion recommendation.
First check the contents per bag, then decide how much you want to take with you.
If you don’t want to use a whole bag, you’ll still need to portion it out.
The Duyvis stock-up multipack contains ten bags of 235 g, 2350 g in total. The Netherlands Nutrition Centre’s Storage Guide recommends keeping opened salted peanuts in a kitchen cupboard for six months, but this is general advice and not a guarantee for every variety or storage condition.
Choose an amount that suits how much you use and follow the storage advice on the pack.
A supply you can’t use in time may go unused; the Netherlands Nutrition Centre lists rancidity, a chewy texture and mould as signs of deterioration or spoilage.
The confirmed Duyvis multipacks are salted. The Netherlands Nutrition Centre recommends unsalted nuts; convenient pack sizes don’t change the variety.
Choose salted or unsalted first, then compare the inner packs.
A 235 g product isn’t the same as a multipack containing ten 235 g bags. Check the full sales unit, not just the brand, flavour and weight per bag.
Otherwise, you may end up with a different total quantity or number of sealed packs than you expected.
Dutch supplier listings confirm two salted multipacks: 20 × 60 g and 10 × 235 g.

Follow the storage advice on the pack. The Netherlands Nutrition Centre’s general Storage Guide recommends keeping opened salted peanuts in a kitchen cupboard for six months, and lists rancidity, a chewy texture or mould as signs of deterioration or spoilage. This isn’t a product-specific guarantee and doesn’t automatically apply to every variety.
Check the allergen information on the packaging and keep it with the peanuts when you portion them out or serve them. According to the Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority, allergen information must appear on the labels of pre-packed products. Since 1 January 2026, the Authority has also monitored warnings about unintended cross-contamination; this is separate from peanuts being an ingredient.
No. A sealed bag doesn’t change the fact that the product contains peanuts. The Food Allergy Foundation warns that even a very small amount can cause severe reactions in some people, so don’t offer peanuts as an allergy-safe option.
Albert Heijn’s warning concerns AH Extra-Large Salted Peanuts in a tub with a best-before date of 04-11-2026; the notice mentions possible metal fragments. Check whether your pack exactly matches the notice and follow Albert Heijn’s instructions. Don’t automatically apply the warning to unsalted AH peanuts or products with different best-before dates.
