Blue Diamond Smokehouse Almonds Bag, 30 oz

This is one of the few things that I like about flying. I always get the little bag of these almonds. My favorite is the Wasabi but these are good also. This is a huge bag and resealable. (I photographed a 14 oz can of vegetables next to the bag for size reference).

I love the flavor but wish there wasn't so much salt on them. If they decreased the amount of salt it would be perfect. That is the only reason why I gave it a 4. Almonds are one of my favorite go to snacks. The value size is great and I love how you can ziplock it shut again. I feel like the price is fair.

At work going for a healthier snack and the Smokehouse Almonds looked like they would hit the spot. Smoky flavor and overall seasoning tasted good. The big caveat is that these are WAY oversalted. The seasoning mix is otherwise good and the almonds nice and crunchy. I just wish they could scale back significantly on the salt. I ended up shaking them in a strainer to lose most of the salt and it was much much better.

"Going strong as an iconic flavor since 1958, you really can't have Blue Diamond without Smokehouse® Almonds" Actually, the Smokehouse Almonds used to have a much "stronger" flavor of smoke and spices. They are now a "Lite" version of what they used to be; not even close in flavor!

Blue Diamond Smokehouse nuts are my all time favorite go to slaty snack - but NO MORE! HATE THE NEW FORMULATION, the powdered coating is flavorless & weirdly chemical, it even changes the crunch of the snack. Bad move BD! Please for the love of God and all the FANS of your original nuts GO BACK TO THE ORIGINAL FLAVOR! You didn't even change the packaging, (which is misleading) how are we to know if the nuts inside are not the delicious nuts we crave and instead get a sorry replacement. Sad to have to break up with you this way...(I still want you back - but the OLD YOU!)

We are so disappointed with the new flavor. Eww. Research shows the recipe didn't change, but there is a clear difference between the almonds we used to love and the ones we can now hardly stand to eat. This is not a physiological change because of the new packaging (which btw doesn't look “modern”, it looks “generic”). We have eaten these almost every day for years and could tell the taste blindfolded. One of our favorite snacks has become trash. Such a let down.

I don't know if these are stale or the manufacturer changed (!) the recipe but all three of the bags in this recent order taste like regular almonds. There is a hint of smokehouse flavor (actually scent) and you can see all of the seasoning on them but no flavor. I've purchased many times before without an issue?

My favorite Blu Diamond almonds has always been smokehouse almonds in a big way💙 But if you ask me today, if I could return this open can of almonds, I would! These are not smokehouse almonds. It taste terrible comparatively. The name needs to be changed to liquid smoke.

The recipe changed again. I have a package of the old stuff, and the second ingredient is vegetable oil (Almond, Canola, safflower and/or sunflower). Now it's just sunflower. They taste noticeably weaker now. Again. I am not happy with the changes to these and I won't be purchasing these anymore. I'm switching to beef jerky.

I have enjoyed these almonds for years. The only flavor I really liked are the smokehouse ones. They must have changed their recipe or something because it is no longer any good. Way less salt and smoke flavor. Unfortunately I will no longer be buying these unless they change back to the original flavor.
