I usually buy my almonds at the grocery store but i was at sam's warehouse club (one of those stores that you buy everything in bulk,) so i bought a big thing of almonds.

i got home and read the label - it said 1 g. sugar. what is that all about? is there usually sugar in almonds? i looked at the label of the almonds i normally buy and it said nothing about sugar. should i eat them or throw them out? help!!

Okay! I had to do some homework on this one to get documented information. However, the assumation I had made was correct... (Yeah!)

I searched on fda.com and found the following:

FDA- How can the food label help people on special diets?


The sugars contained in the almonds are naturally occurring. This has a lower glycemic value than processed sugar.

Munch happily but sparingly would be my advice! (Nuts tend to slow me down.)
