Best Nuts and Nut Butters — No Seed Oils, No Added Sugar

A nut should have one ingredient: the nut. Commercial roasted and flavored nuts slip in cottonseed, soybean, or palm oil plus sugar and emulsifiers, turning a whole food into an ultra-processed snack. Our top scorers are dry-roasted or raw, salted with real salt if at all, and free of the industrial oils that oxidise during roasting.

What to look for

One ingredient (the nut) — two if lightly salted
No cottonseed, soybean, canola, or palm oil
No added sugar or corn syrup solids
Dry-roasted rather than oil-roasted
Stored in opaque packaging — nut oils go rancid in light
