Nature’s Garden Keto Snack Mix - Probiotic Cheese Balls, Crunchy Keto Snack, Keto Snack Mix, All Natural, Heart Healthy Nuts – 24 oz Bag (Pack of 2)

> Nature's Garden Keto Snack Mix is indeed low carbohydrate, low cholesterol, and relatively low calorie. And therefore are good snacks for diabetics. That's because the major components (including almonds, pecans, and [the few] macadamia nuts) are low carb.> But there are lower carbohydrate nuts, specifically peanuts and walnuts. Both of which are also less expensive. So, I suggest mixing the Nature's Garden Keto Snack Mix with peanuts. Walnut skins are bitter, so walnuts alone are not so appealing --- but you can add up to 1/3 walnuts to the Nature's Garden Keto Snack Mix, and the diversity of flavor will improve the mix. If you particularly like pecans (as I do) they are low carb as well.> So far, I've purchased a dozen bags, 4 of which were stale. Light toasting can remove the staleness. Even if not stale, the flavor can be improved by toasting. (Pecans, walnuts, and almonds are usually sold unroasted -- presumbably they keep better unroasted. So, you can improve the flavor by roasting them too.)> It's probably best to roast the mix (including any added nuts) in an oven or a toaster oven, but I use a microwave (because my tiny kitchen is too small for a toaster oven, and I don't want to fireup my big oven).> TOASTING IN A MICROWAVE OVEN:>> I toast about 1 1/2 cups of mix (with or without added nuts) on a paper plate in my compact microwave for 9 minutes on power level 4. The cooking time and best power level may differ. Mixing the nuts half-way through the time, is a good idea, but not essential.>> My microwave is hotter in the middle, so I spread the mix in a donut shape on the paper plate. Keep the layer relatively thin. The amount that you are toasting matters -- so always toast the same volume of mix at a time. If you microwave too long, or don't leave the center bare, then some of the nuts will burn inside. Don't sample until the mix has cooled down -- hot nuts can be hot enough to blister burn your mouth.

Freshness:I love the taste, portion size is good, great snack and there is no salt.

my many cheese balls

I was very disappointed with this product.There were loose prices of seeds in the box it came from and the product was very stale.There was a small opening in the bag and it needed to discarded.For the money it was not worth it.

Nice, I like it.

Disappointed at the lack of macadamia nuts. We haven't found one yet, unless they are made to look like cheese balls, which there are quite a few of in each bag, but no macadamia nuts. And if they are in pieces, that hardly fits the picture on the package. I did give it a three because of low carbs and what is there is tasty.

Good healthy snacking alternative. Satisfying!

The fake cheese in the mix is horrible
