raw nuts

Unprocessed tree seeds

Raw nuts are nuts that haven't been roasted, salted, or otherwise processed beyond shelling.

Health-conscious eaters often prefer them for their unaltered nutritional profile: I keep raw nuts in my desk for snacking.

The term distinguishes them from the roasted varieties more commonly sold.

Common raw nuts include almonds, cashews, and walnuts.
