Question: You really should tell more about the importance of buying organic almonds, as now NON ORGANIC almonds are now pasteurized!!!

Answer: Jodika, You are absolutely right!

I am just as frustrated as you are... it is very hard and expensive to buy truly raw almonds now. I love snacking and blending almonds in my smoothies!

I do feel bad that all of these small almond growers have a bunch of regulations in order to make a living... when most of the problems stem from the large corporate growers. And we, as the consumers, shouldn't have to read behind the label to find out if our products are really "raw" or not.

Fortunately, I've found a place that sells completely raw and organic almonds! Nutsonline.com has great prices for small and large quantities for truly raw and organic almonds.

Thank you for bringing the importance of buying organic almonds to our attention.
