Is this butter from domestic almonds.

According to Artisana's website they're from California. You can check it out at http://www.artisanafoods.com/nut-butters/almond-butter/

It's been years since I spoke with the president of the company, but last I checked they used solely California almonds for their butter.

Unless Artisana has changed their sources, this is made from pasteurized, California almonds. If you're looking for raw almond butter from non-pasteurized almonds, you can Google "non-pasteurized raw almond butter."

Almond butter is truly raw ONLY IF the almonds are UNPASTEURIZED. http://www.woodstock-foods.com/pages/productdetail.aspx?p=2693873760#show http://www.woodstock-foods.com/pages/productdetail.aspx?p=2693873761#show

I would check w/ the vendor but I dont think so... I believe they are sourced as raw (unprocessed) California almonds

I don't see the USDA sign in it. But, it is the real shea butter. I know that because I'm from where it is produced. Buy it with peace of mine.

As I am not Jewish, I am not familiar with what would make this kosher or not. One website I checked says yes because the almond represents life and the coating represents the sweetness and joy of life. I would check with the vendor to see what they know.

No. If you roll your mouse over the picture they are all different butters. It is very good. Mix it with carrot seed oil and grape seed oil to make a hair mask. Use very little and blend well.

Yes, it is simply ground almonds, although it is a finer grind than I would be able to do with my food processor or any other piece of equipment most home cooks would have.

That's really weird. This product has a single ingredient and it's "certified organic butter (milk)". California is a crazy state so I wouldn't worry. They may just consider saturated fat a carcinogen.

No, it is made from Almonds that have had all of the juices squeezed out of them.

It contains almonds, only. I have the "unsalted, smooth" butter and recommend it highly. I do not miss the sodium and it is definitely tasty without any added sugar. Imagine a ripe banana/almond butter sandwich...ymmmmm.

It's derived only from argan, and contains no almonds. The word 'almonds' is a translation error by Ecocert (which is a French organization). If you look at the new certification, you can see it's been corrected. (Almonds are not listed on the bottle; only on the since corrected certificate.) This product is 100% pure cosmetic moroccan argan oil, and has been certified organic and pure by Ecocert.

Doesn't specify but by the texture, appearance and taste it tastes and looks roasted. It were really raw unpasteurized and sprouted then this might be the best nut butter on the market less the high amounts of Omega 6's.

Yes, the company says it is. I was very impressed with the quality and after mixing it with the 100% shay butter it made up a great hand,face and body rub. Especially the feet. Hope this helps. Carroll

I actually asked the manufacturer this and this is the response I got: "The almonds in our Almond Butter are steam pasteurized. Steam treatments are surface treatments only. Multiple proprietary steam treatments are currently being utilized by the industry which meets USDA Organic Program standards. The short bursts of steam do not impact the nutritional integrity of the almond. These treatments do not "cook" proteins or destroy vitamins and minerals. The nutritional and sensory characteristics of the almonds remain unchanged when treated with steam." So rest easy.. they were never sent to the PPO gas chamber. Thanks, Woodstock.

There's 1 gram of sugar per 2 tablespoons of almond butter. I'm assuming it's natural sugar from the almonds. No additional sugar is added.

Yes I have. I make almond butter. I takes a lot longer without oil, so the second time I uses a little almond oil and it was much better. The third time I made it I used a little almond oil and a little melted coconut oil. omg! it is GREAT.
