NUTS U.S. - Walnuts In Shell | Grown and Packed in California | Chandler Variety | Fresh Buttery Taste and Easy to Crack | Non-GMO and Raw Walnuts (2 LBS)

These were a really nice surprise. The walnuts taste fresh, buttery, and crunchy, and most of the shells were easy to crack without the nut inside getting smashed to pieces. You can tell they’re good quality and not old or dried out like some in-shell walnuts can be. The resealable bag is super convenient for keeping them fresh, and the 6 lb size is a great value if you go through walnuts often. We’ve been eating them as snacks and adding them to salads and baking, and they’ve been excellent for both. If you like fresh California walnuts with a good natural flavor, these are definitely worth buying.

I have tried various raw walnuts in shell, but have found these to be the best. They are very fresh and are super high quality. I don't buy walnuts from the grocery store anymore now that I have found these. They are delicious and packed with care. Highly recommend!

It was quite reasonably priced for how much I got. And every single night that I have opened so far has been in perfect condition! I’ve used about 2 1/2 pounds of a 5 pound bag, and no duds.

98% of walnuts were perfect and delicious. One or two broken shells and a few with black nut meat. Overall a really tasty product.

After trying two other brands, one other brand here from Amazon and another in store, I decided that these were the ultimate winner. I love that they are much easier to crack than other brands and most of the time I can get the two halves apart without breaking them into a million pieces (This was not the case for the other two brands I tried that were both too hard, broke apart into useless tiny pieces and had more rotten ones than good ones. ). I like to go through several bags before leaving a review so that I can also talk about the consistency of the brand. NUTS U.S. has been a very consistent brand as far as quality, freshness, price and availability. Since I live in Oregon they don't have to travel too far either coming from California. A few times a week I give these to our growing family of yard squirrels to help them with "teething" during the summer and spring months till our Oaks start dropping acorns. This is a necessity for squirrels as their teeth can grow up to 2" every year. Giving them a good hard nut in the shell is good for them and keeps them from finding other hard things to chew on for relief from the constant growing pains - Like your decks, rails, pillars, planter boxes, etc. They cannot help the "Chewing" part or they would always be in pain so a good hard nut helps "File" down their teeth and keeps them away a little longer as it takes them more time to get through harder nuts (NEVER give a squirrel Brazil Nuts due to the high selenium content!! And peanuts, unless Raw are really bad for them too. Never give a squirrel anything artificial, processed, roasted or salted! Only give them what they would find in nature.) or, when they are done eating, it takes them longer to find a place to bury them since the bigger the nut, the more concealed a place they want to hide it. I have seen them wander around aimlessly for 10-15 minutes trying to find a place to hide the bigger bounties. FYI...it's a "Myth" that squirrels "Lose" their nuts, they don't. Many studies have proven that myth to be false and, the fact that I don't have a million walnut, hazelnut, pecan and oak trees growing in my large backyard where they bury 90% of the nuts I give them that they don't eat was all the proof I need of that. Are these good for human consumption too? Absolutely, our little furballs only get about half our bag of nuts, the rest, go to us...dipped in melted chocolate! YUM!

Healthy and tasty came whole looks elegant

Great product like the fact that they’re in a shell not in a bag already shelled

The walnuts arrived in very good condition well packed. They are a very good food and snack.
