I thought this product was excellent and will buy again. Mine did not have a strong peanut taste and were mostly whole pieces, unlike some of the 1 star reviews. So, maybe it comes down to the quality of a certain lot from a certain supplier? I bought mine online and picked it up from the store, so, I did not even shop from a shelf for the best looking one. Just random draw from the Sam's club picker. I usually have a 1/3 of a cup of cashews in the morning, as a treat, with my Quaker oatmeal and cinnamon (both from Sam's Club - make my own). So, I have had two weeks to form the opinion about the taste and quality. Your mileage will vary.

Ordered my last canister online, used free shipping for Plus members. Those cashews were great, really best ever. Bought another canister today in store, very disappointed. They're okay, just not as fresh and not enough salt. Won't buy in store again, will order again and have shipped. Hope they're as good as the other ones I had shipped, if they're not I'll find another source. Won't recommend buying in store.

I always buy these when I visit Sams but twice now I have purchased cashews that taste like burnt old peanut oil. Don’t even taste like cashews. They need to do a better job of changing the oil when cooking them. Now I know to not buy the darker batches. Not Good!

I’ve purchased these several times and they’ve always been good. However, the last time I purchased them they had a strange taste; I thought it was a chemical taste but other family members thought they tasted like peanuts. I’m not sure I’ll purchase them again.

I buy these often . My grand children love them also . However, I used to buy the Queen whole cashews from Sams and feel that they were worth the money . At least 98%of the cashews were really whole . The ones now are same price or higher and a lot of them are not whole. They r broken . Still good but somewhat disappointed ☹️.

I have purchased these many times in the past and they were acceptable but the last couple of times i have purchased them, they are very dark and bitter tasting. I feel like I'm getting an "outlet" item. I prefer Planter's as I know the quality is good - which you do sell only online now. I wish you could go back to giving your in-store customers a choice-this item has consistently gone downhill in quality.

I formerly loved this product. Is however they are no longer gluten-free. I Get that there could be other nuts in them but it would not seem hard to produce nuts in a factory where Wheat could be excluded. Natural, Raw, Salted and roasted are by far the largest portion of the market. It's not just silly acts that have to avoid gluten. It's other people with autoimmune disorders as well.

Bad batch, bug holes and spots on some nuts. Most are delicious but some tasted like diesel or chemical like fertilizer. One nut each time with such a horrible taste I had to spit out and rinse out the flavor. I noticed spots on some of the halves and I just can’t eat them again nor get a return. So sad because I normally am pleased with this brand.

Do not buy! I have bought these twice thinking maybe the first order was out of the norm. Both times these cashews have been hard and over roasted. Don't waste your money! Buy the planters. Unfortunately, Sams has been stocking more and more of it's brands instead of name brands and the quality just isn't there.

I DON'T TYPICALLY REVIEW FOOD PRODUCTS BUT THIS IS ONE THAT WE HAVE BOUGHT MANY TIMES AS IT IS ONE OF MY HUSBAND'S FAVORITE SNACKS! THIS BATCH, HOWEVER CAUSED SEVERE STOMACH DISTRESS IN EVERYONE WHO ATE THE. THEY ALSO HAVE A STRANGE TASTE, DIFFICULT TO DESCRIBE BUT "almost" STALE WITH A TOUCH OF CHEMICAL.
