Choose individually wrapped bags if you want to take peanuts with you or hand them out straight away; for Duyvis, a multipack of 20 bags of 60 grams is listed. If you’d rather choose your own portion or take unsalted peanuts, a larger pack may be more practical, but you’ll need to portion it yourself and store what’s left. Pack weight is not dietary advice, so check the ingredients, allergens and any warnings for the exact variant too.
You won’t need to weigh out an individually sealed bag in advance. Check how many grams each bag contains and how many bags are in the pack. Duyvis lists salted peanuts in 60-gram bags; Foods & Goods describes a box containing 20 of these bags.
A larger pack means you’ll need to portion and store the peanuts yourself, but you can decide how much to have each time. Albert Heijn has a product page for unsalted peanuts; ALDI and PLUS list 250-gram unsalted varieties.
For sharing, you could look for a larger bag or a different type of product, such as peanuts with a crunchy coating. Jumbo lists a 500-gram pack of salted peanuts; Duyvis describes its Borrelnootjes Cocktail as peanuts with a savoury coating.
First decide whether you want to take a sealed bag with you, weigh out your own portion or buy peanuts for a group. Then compare the product type and the information on the packaging.
| What to consider | What to look for | Who is this important for? |
|---|---|---|
| Taking them with you | Check the weight of each sealed bag and the number of bags; a multipack may contain several bags. | If I want to take a bag with me or hand one out without weighing it first, I look at how much each bag contains. Convenience is the top priority for around 39% of consumers. |
| Product type and flavour | Read the description and ingredients for the exact variant; plain peanuts and peanuts with a coating are not the same product. | If I’m choosing between plain peanuts and a crunchy coating, I want to know which variant I’m buying. Flavour and texture are the top priorities for around 23% of consumers. |
| Choosing unsalted | Check the variant and ingredients. Don’t treat the weight of a bag as dietary advice. | If I want unsalted peanuts and to decide my own portion size, the product variant matters more to me than a ready-portioned bag. Around 23% of consumers prioritise this choice. |
| Quantity and packaging | Compare the total amount and the number of individual bags; with a larger sharing pack, you’ll need to serve and store the peanuts yourself. | If I’m buying peanuts to serve with drinks and nibbles, I want a quantity that suits how I’ll use them. The total quantity is the top priority for around 15% of consumers. |
A 60-gram Duyvis bag is a packaging specification. The Voedingscentrum recommends a handful of unsalted nuts each day; that doesn’t automatically make the contents of a salted bag a recommended portion.
First decide which quantity and variant you want to take with you. Use the packaging to check what’s inside, not as a guide to recommended portions.
Albert Heijn has issued a warning about possible metal fragments in AH Pinda’s extra groot gezouten in a tub with a best-before date of 04-11-2026. The warning applies to the specified variant and date.
Check the product name, packaging type and best-before date. Don’t eat a product that exactly matches the warning; assess other variants separately.
A Duyvis box of 20 bags of 60 grams and a 500-gram Jumbo bag are different purchase quantities. A multipack is not the same as individual bags to take with you.
Compare the total amount and the number of bags shown on the packaging. Follow the storage instructions for the variant you choose.

The product contains whole peanuts. According to the Voedingscentrum, don’t give whole peanuts to children under 4.
No. 60 grams is the weight of the pack, not dietary advice. The Voedingscentrum recommends a handful of unsalted nuts each day; that doesn’t automatically make a bag of salted peanuts a suitable portion.
Compare both the total amount and the number of individual bags. The Duyvis multipack described contains 20 bags of 60 grams; the Jumbo pack contains 500 grams in one bag. The packs therefore differ in both quantity and format.
Read the ingredients and allergen information on the packaging for the exact variant. The Voedingscentrum says allergens in packaged products are clearly highlighted in the ingredients list. The NVWA distinguishes between allergens used as ingredients and warnings about allergens that may accidentally get into food.
Don’t eat the product mentioned. Albert Heijn has issued a warning about possible metal fragments in AH Pinda’s extra groot gezouten in a tub with that best-before date. The warning applies to this specific variant and date, not all AH peanuts.
No. The Voedingscentrum advises against giving whole peanuts or nuts to children under 4. This is dietary and safety advice, not a legal age limit.
