What it is
These are macadamia nuts that have been dry roasted. Dry roasting means the nuts are heated without any added oil. This process brings out their natural flavor and creates a satisfying crunch. They are a simple snack, ready to eat right from the package. The nuts are typically whole or halved, showcasing their rich, buttery texture.
