Choose individually wrapped packs if colleagues want to take a sealed snack with them: Albert Heijn lists a 20 × 45 g multipack of Duyvis Provençale. A 125 g bag is listed as containing 4–5 servings, but it isn’t a multipack of individual bags; larger bags are better for sharing. Also check the ingredients, allergen information and storage instructions for the exact variant.
Which pack is right for you?
Taking a pack with you
You want to be able to grab a sealed pack from the office snack box to enjoy at your desk or on the go. Albert Heijn lists a multipack of 20 × 45 g bags of Duyvis Provençale. That’s different from a sharing bag that simply lists several nutritional servings.
Sharing a snack during your break
You’re looking for a bag to serve during a break with colleagues. Compare the net weight and follow the storage instructions on the pack once it’s opened; for Duyvis Provençale 125 g, Albert Heijn recommends an airtight, lightproof container.
Checking ingredients and allergens
You’re buying for people with specific dietary requirements or allergies and want to check the exact variant. Listed allergens vary by product, so base your choice on the current packaging, not just the flavour name.
What should you look for when choosing?
First decide whether you need sealed individual packs or want to serve a snack for everyone to share. Then check the quantity, ingredients and storage advice.

Common mistakes
-
Assuming a serving size means individual bags
Albert Heijn lists the 125 g bag of Duyvis Provençale as containing 4–5 servings. The multipack, on the other hand, contains 20 individual bags of 45 g.
Check the packaging format and the number of inner bags, not just the number of servings listed.
You’ll need to portion out a sharing bag yourself and store it according to the pack instructions once opened.
-
Using the flavour name instead of checking the label
Duyvis Provençale lists peanuts and wheat; the PLUS Mild variant we looked at also lists milk and celery, among other ingredients. Information therefore varies by product.
Check the current ingredients and allergen information for the exact variant. Keep this information to hand if you decant a sharing bag into another container.
-
Assuming a small bag is the same as unsalted nuts
Voedingscentrum distinguishes between unsalted nuts and savoury coated peanuts; a smaller pack doesn’t change the product category.
Don’t use information about unsalted nuts to describe savoury coated peanuts. Check the packaging for product-specific details.
Comparing brands and variants
Duyvis
The packs we looked at range from individual bags to sharing bags.
- Albert Heijn describes the Provençale multipack as 20 × 45 g. Duyvis describes the flavour as onion and garlic.
- The 125 g and 275 g variants come in different pack formats; check the quantity and label for each product.
Albert Heijn
The range includes examples of Duyvis packs and own-brand savoury coated peanuts.
- The product information distinguishes between a 20 × 45 g multipack and a 125 g Duyvis sharing bag.
- The stated weight of an own-brand pack doesn’t, by itself, confirm that it contains individual inner bags.
Jumbo
The Cocktail variant we looked at is a 300 g bag for sharing.
- Jumbo recommends storing it in a cool, dry, dark place.
- The product information doesn’t describe a multipack of individual bags. The variant lists peanuts and wheat.
Lidl
Lidl lists savoury coated peanuts in its Dutch range.
- The product page confirms the product category.
- Check the packaging for the current variant, quantity, inner packs and ingredients.
ALDI
The Dutch range page we looked at describes Trader Joe’s savoury coated peanuts.
- The page lists 300 g bags in Poesta, Paprika and Bacon Kaas flavours.
- The description refers to bags and doesn’t mention individual portion packs.

Frequently asked questions
Is a 125 g bag a single-portion pack?
No, the 125 g bag of Duyvis Provençale we looked at is a sharing bag. Albert Heijn lists an average serving of 30 g and 4–5 servings per pack; the separate multipack contains 20 bags of 45 g.
How should I store an opened bag of savoury coated peanuts?
Follow the storage instructions on the packaging for the variant you buy. For the 125 g bag of Duyvis Provençale we looked at, Albert Heijn recommends storing it in an airtight, lightproof container after opening.
What should I check if I need to take allergies into account?
Check the ingredients and allergen information on the packaging for the exact variant. The Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority says allergen information must appear on the label of prepacked products.
What rules for allergen warnings have applied since 2026?
In the Netherlands, new rules for warnings about allergens that unintentionally enter food have applied since 1 January 2026. The Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority gives examples such as ‘May contain X’ and ‘Not suitable for people with an X allergy’. So check the current packaging and don’t rely solely on older online shop information.
How can I tell if a pack is suitable for taking with me?
Check whether the pack actually contains individual bags and how many grams each one weighs. A sharing bag that lists several nutritional servings doesn’t mean those servings are individually wrapped.
