5.0 out of 5 stars Great flavor, Great Value

2026-01-25    -Keith

I read the reviews and was a little worried, but now I have purchased these twice! They are delicious. They are oily, but I actually like that. The macadamias themselves taste great...almost to the point of being addicting. I went through the first bag much faster than I intended. I'll be buying more, and I really don't get the negative reviews.

5.0 out of 5 stars Little Oily But Great Taste

2026-01-03    -Cisco

When I read the reviews on this macadamias many expressed their discomfort about the macadamias being oily and that’s True. I personally don’t mind it to be oily because I find these to be tasty. I really like the taste of these macadamia and doesn’t bother me the fact that it’s a little oily. Just keep that in mind when buying it but you’ll like taste to the point of liking your fingers afterwards.

These arrived as mostly whole macadamia nuts, with maybe a quarter of them having split into halves. They are well-coated in oil, with salt that can be felt when you pick them up. We have consumed probably around 5 cups (1.5 lb) of these.PROThese are a great price for bulk mac nuts, and make nut-butter-making-in-a-blender super easy. I made mac nut butter in our vitamix with these and didn't have to add any oil or salt - just loaded them in as-is! If it weren't for all that oil in them, they'd make a wonderful butter substitute!CONThey have a much milder, more neutral flavor than expected, and, while they do taste like nuts, they don't quite have the full mac nut flavor for which I longed. I have to admit, I was disappointed in their taste. I would have to agree with other posters, these are probably already old when they arrive. Even searching out the ones that were darker roasted (have brown, not-quite-burnt areas on them), I could not find a nut that tasted like anything better than bland and vaguely-nutty.The amount of oil in which they are coated is, in my opinion, excessive. That mac nut butter I made with these in our vitamix? Even after resting in the fridge for almost 2 weeks, none of the oil separated out - it stayed thin and runny the enter time. Just a guess, this may be related to the age of the nuts and the solids becoming less dense, so they don't separate from the oils nearly as well. Seriously, nuts should not be coated in enough oil to account for 1/4 cup of oil per 3 cups of nuts.Assuming that 1/12 (1/4 cup per 3 cups) is a correct ratio of oil to nuts, doing a rough calculation, the cottonseed oil in this accounts for approximately 13% of the weight; so, assume this 5 lb bag contains only 4.33 lb of actual mac nuts, then go price compare.Edit: We've now also tried this same brand's (and seller's) raw and unsalted version, and found them to be really great.

1.0 out of 5 stars Product is GREASY AND SATURATED in seed oil - UNACCEPTABLE

2026-03-05    -T.T.

These macadamia nuts are VERY TINY and SATURATED IN SUNFLOWER OIL to the point of being EXTREMELY GREASY. They don't have that fresh clean taste of a roasted Macadamia nut and my hands get covered in grease just from touching them! Macadamia nuts are expensive and these are ruined in both flavor and health benefits, as processed seed oils are inflammatory (regardless of the outdated health hype). Macadamia nuts are already rich in heart-healthy monounsaturated fats. Why add inflammatory seed oil? The manufacturer doesn't disclose the added oil in their product description and Amazon doesn't allow returns on these products. I'm basically screwed out of my money and stuck with a 5 LB bag of greasy crap! (This is also my first time buying a food product on Amazon - never again)

4.0 out of 5 stars Small, very tasty, but also very oily

2026-01-31    -Mike in RI

These are not what I typically think of when I envision macadamia nuts. They are small (about 1/2" diameter), mostly broken, and, as a result of not being dry roasted, they are very oily. They are very lightly salted and taste great. They are so oily that you need to wash your hands before touching anything else after eating these. The oil is visible on the surface much more than in cocktail peanuts or most other non-dry-roasted nuts I am familiar with.

3.0 out of 5 stars The raw macadamia nuts are better

2026-01-07    -loosedogs

I have been buying the 5lb bags of raw unsalted macadamia nuts, and I have been very satisfied. I roast them myself so I can keep the temperature low. However, there are long periods of time when these are not available. So I bought these roasted salted ones to try. I could tell that they were roasted at too high of a temperature, which spoils the nutritional benefits of most nuts. Also the use of unhealthy processed sunflower oil is a disappointment. Not only is processed seed oil very bad for health, the oiliness and flavor it adds is not good. I would hope that Sincerely Nuts can do a better job of keeping the raw nuts in stock, because I will not be buying these roasted ones again.Edit to add, after reaching the bottom of the bag, the nuts are way too oily, this should never pass quality control.
