  • Does anyone else love Marcona Almonds like I do?

    They are just delectable! I enjoy them several times a week, and to this day still shake my head in wonderment at how incredible they taste as I eat them. They're roasted in sunflower oil and have this gorgeous, clean, almost squeaky texture. You can find them at the larger health food supermarkets, Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, Central Market, HEB, and even online.

    I had a midnight snack attack just now and since I am enjoying a few ounces just now, I felt it right to share my little find with those of you who've not come across them yet.

    I love those also! My favorite way to eat almonds is raw, but these are great.

      OMG, yes -- these things are awesome. But, I only trust myself to sample them when I'm at Whole Foods. If I brought them home, I'd down the whole container in a hurry!

          Curse you Sheila. I had no idea what you were talking about, but they jumped out at me at Costco today. Yum. No stopping point in sight though...

                Never heard of these, will have to try and locate them. Are they are a better suited snack than pistachios? That is what I have been using as my treat lately. The small bags of the pistachios have a 4 net carb count so I usually have l sometimes 2 for a snack? How does the almonds range in carbs?
