If you have coeliac disease, first choose a variety whose ingredients and relevant cross-contamination information are compatible with your gluten-free diet. Then compare the energy content on the same weight basis and weigh your portion. Unsalted doesn’t automatically mean low in calories: the Voedingscentrum lists 157 kcal per 25 g for ordinary unsalted peanuts, while Jumbo gives 156 kcal per 25 g for its specific Unsalted Kingsize variety.
You buy peanuts because you have coeliac disease and want to distinguish between plain peanuts, additional ingredients and information about possible cross-contamination. The Dutch Coeliac Society describes peanuts packed separately by type as gluten-free snacks; it’s still important to check the exact variety.
You want to assess the energy content of your snack by comparing products on the same weight basis and weighing the portion you eat. The Voedingscentrum’s calorie checker gives a value per 25 g serving for ordinary unsalted peanuts.
You’re looking for an unsalted variety, but don’t want to confuse that choice with a low energy value. Read salt and energy as separate nutritional values on the label.
First check the ingredients and any cross-contamination information for the exact variety. Then compare the energy content per 100 g and calculate the amount for the portion you actually want to eat.
| What to consider | What should you check? | Who is this important to? |
|---|---|---|
| Gluten-free suitability | Read the ingredients and any cross-contamination statement; assess each flavour and mix separately. | If I have coeliac disease, I want to check first whether the exact variety is suitable for my gluten-free diet. Around 36% of consumers put suitability first. |
| Energy per serving | Compare kcal per 100 g and calculate the value for the amount you eat. | If I want to measure out my snack portion carefully, I’d rather compare the same weights than product names. Around 36% of consumers give calories per serving top priority. |
| Unsalted ingredients | Check salt and energy as separate values on the label. | If I’m mainly looking for unsalted peanuts, I want to assess that preference separately from the energy value. Around 14% of consumers put unsalted ingredients first. |
| Packaging and storage | Check the pack size, stated serving size and storage advice; weigh out a snack portion separately. | If I want to divide a bag between several snack breaks, I look at serving sizes and how to store it after opening. Around 14% of consumers prioritise these practical points. |
A mix may contain additional ingredients that contain gluten, even though plain peanuts packed separately by type are described as gluten-free snacks.
Check the ingredients and cross-contamination information for the exact mix or flavour before choosing it.
The specific Jumbo Unsalted Kingsize Peanuts variety lists 0.00 g of salt per 100 g and 623 kcal per 100 g. So the unsalted label alone doesn’t tell you how much energy the snack contains.
Compare salt and energy separately, and check the value for the portion you weigh out too.
The 350 g Jumbo Kingsize bag lists 14 servings of 25 g. The pack contents are therefore not the same as one serving.
Weigh out the amount you want to eat in advance and store the rest in a tightly sealed container in a dry place.

No. Peanuts, nuts and gluten-containing cereals are separate allergen categories. So a nut warning doesn’t automatically answer the question of whether a product contains gluten. If you have a separate peanut or nut allergy, that also raises a different safety concern from coeliac disease alone.

Do not eat AH Extra Large Salted Peanuts in a tub with a best-before date of 04-11-2026. Albert Heijn warns of possible metal fragments; the warning concerns that specific variety, packaging and date, not all AH peanuts.
According to the Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority, new rules for warnings about possible allergen cross-contamination have applied since 1 January 2026. Transitional arrangements may apply to stock packaged earlier; the NVWA uses the production date as its starting point and states that products may only be sold while the food remains safe.
