What are the white spots on these nuts? Is something wrong with them?

After you remove the shell the Brazil nuts have a brown skin much like a peanut and in processing and handling some of the skin comes off. I bought the Brazil nuts for my parrot and myself an they are excellent. These nuts are not roasted or salted which makes them more healthy.

Sorry I can't help because it was so long ago, but I do not remember any white spots on mine.

They are fine to use. I have been using these for 3 yrs and the drops have always been white. I checked with the pharmacy and they said they wer ok. Hope this helps.

I don't have any spots on mine..But since the "salt" is a natural substance, the dark spots may just be from that part of the "rock." I'd contact the company, just to be sure..

Yes!! Do not buy these nuts. They also add some kind of oil without noting it on the label. Save your money

Yes but we haven't done any kind of nuts yet since we have bought ours. I'm thinking that will probably get tested out this holiday season. I will let you know how it goes if you are still interested..

I noticed these too. Not in the natural flavor powder. I have seen these little flecks in all of the vanilla flavored powder that I have ordered. Not sure what they are, but the vanilla is MUCH BETTER TASTING than the natural flavor so I am sticking with the vanilla.

I looked at mine & saw the little black dots as well. Never noticed them before! The only thing I could find is that these are seeds from weeds that get mixed in. I've been using chia seeds for at least a year now & have had only positive results especially with my HDL's. Don't worry about the black dots. If it was something bad it would be all over the Internet. : ) Hope this helps.

I see SALT and Peanut Oil as additives. It might mean that they are roasted in peanut oil... would be nice of COSTCO to label the product accordingly.

I am pretty sure they aren't. They were very stale tasting and dark colored, not like fresh pecans.

I just checked. The color stays. I never saw white. It doesn't appear to have fillers. Another reason I bought these was because the writer of the 100 Days of Real Food blog recommended them......and she's super picky. Hope that helps.

The surrounding is an off white color. Not sure why it's referred to as "almond"

White spots? Are they small? These could be bad mirrors in your processing board. My TV has 2 white and several black ones. Replacing the processing board with the mirrors is about 250... This is not related to the bulb it is a separate issue.

I have had this unit for 3 years. I had been repaired once already. I currently do not see any white spots.

Hi..what i did was let the nuts soak in water for about 20-30 minutes. Afterwards I cut each end of the nut. Hope it works for you!

are the nuts roasted? You just want dry / dehydrated. Turning to mush sounds like cooked / too soft nuts
