I have passed these in the store a few times before deciding to give them a try, and man I'm glad I did. The taste is really etheral, nothing artificial or fake, but a mellow, smooth buttery hint of vanilla - pretty subtle but addictive never the less. The first day I had this I ate about ¼ of the container and had to stop myself from having any more.

These comes in a nice size, 8 oz plastic container, easy to take with me or keep on my desk at work, true that is distracts me, I find myself gazing at them and reaching to have a piece here and there, but they taste as good as candy and are healthy.

What I also love is the lack of corn syrup, this is sweet but has none of the appalling chemicals that food companies love to feed us with. This little nut, native to Iran is virtually carb free and has lots of fiber, vitamin E and is rich in mono unsaturated fat ( the good one that helps lower LDL cholesterol). It is possible that almonds benefit the skin - good complexion never hurts, and help prevent cancer, have anti-inflammatory properties and boosts immunity - phew, so much for such a little nut.

Also this price can't be beat, I will order my next batch from Amazon.

I can no longer find these in my local grocer, so I am ordering them from Amazon. The other big nut company is offering a cocoa-flavored nut full of artificial sweeteners and the like. These vanilla nuts have only 3 gm of sugar per serving, but they are sweet and delicious. Short ingredient list, wonderful product, I hope they continue making these, you can't find a better choice.

These almonds are worth every penny! (Should be under 4 bucks a bottle.) They are VERY lightly sweetened ... no sticky or crunchy goo coating here! The light dusting adds interest without overpowering the almonds. Check out the impressively short ingredient list. My kids love these and are happy to find them or the Cinnamon Brown Sugar Almonds in their lunchbox. 'Nuff said. :)

These nuts are heavenly in more ways than one. For one, all nuts are healthy. Almonds are especially heathful. For two, the taste is out of this world. It is an almond taste with a smooth vanilla background. If you like both almonds and vanilla, then you will be in heaven.

Lucky for me, I am a nut lover. I am lucky to love something so healthy. And the vanilla background of these nuts make them a very healthy and tasty snack; they are so good, it is hard to believe that they are healthy.

Almonds are good for the heart, as well as other organs. Even though raw nuts, I'm sure, are healthier than cooked nuts, I do sometimes include nuts in different recipes. However, I would never include these vanilla almonds in any recipe, because I would be afraid that the vanilla might come off. I only eat these raw.

This is a very healthy snack. Highly recommended.

The flavor of these nuts is similar to vanilla wafers, yet they are filling and healthy, containing little sugar and almost no salt. I would deduct a star for being priced too high both here and in the supermarket, but Blue Diamond deserves credit for their restraint in using quality ingredients and in not producing a sugar encrusted candy. Now if they would only go against the trend of charging a huge markup for minimal extra processing cost...

And if your not in the mood for vanilla, the cinnamon flavor is excellent as well.

These are my favorite Blue Diamond Naturals almonds, so when I couldn't find them at my local store, I bought them here. I emailed the company and they wrote and informed me that this flavor is no longer available due to poor sales performance. :(

These have come to be a snack that I look forward to having each and every day. They are slightly sweet with a yummy vanilla flavor. I am so glad the company came out with this flavor.

Excellent snack, with health benefits. Great taste-- just enough sweetness and vanilla flavor without being overwhelming. Amazon's current pricing is not at all high ($23.63 for 6-pack).

I LOVE this stuff. I always carry a jar in my car and in my knapsack. They fill me up when I'm hungry and I wash them down with water. Additionally, whenever I feel like smoking a cigarette, I pop a few in my mouth and the smoking desire disappears. These almonds are literally lifesavers!

A healthy and tasty snack! But where are they? I can no longer find them at my local grocery stores. Have they been discontinued? OMG, I hope not! I've tried the butter toffee, cocoa, cinammon sugar, etc. but they aren't as good as the vanilla bean. Please bring them back Blue Diamond.
