"Snacks have come to occupy an important place in our daily routines—for many people, they’re as important as “three square meals” a day. Delicious taste is the first thing people look for in a snack, but 65% of people who nosh also say they are most interested in healthy snacks[i]. Gourmet Nut has combined great flavor and healthy ingredients in a line of Gourmet On the Go snack mixes, which are full of protein-containing nuts and antioxidant-packed, fiber-filled dried fruits.
Whether it’s throwing a 2.25 oz. Power Up bag in a gym bag or keeping a resealable 8 oz. bag in the car or desk drawer, Gourmet Nut snacks can help stave off the vending machine or drive through window. Eat them alone or toss them into yogurt, oatmeal, or salads."

What we thought: We tried a variety of snack mixes and salts from Gourmet Nut and were impressed with every single item. We loved the fantastic blends of the snack mixes, especially the Body Boosting Antioxidant Mix. It was filled with big pieces of fruit, whole nuts and chunks of dark chocolate. These snacks are a healthier alternative than other snack mixes we've tried and the are great for on-the-go snacking!
The selection gourmet sea salts we tried was absolutely amazing! They were beautiful too:) These salts come in a variety of pretty colors and have very descriptive labels which include what makes each salt so special and the best ways to use them. I was particularly impressed with the Sel Gris French Salt since it could be used in baking. I usually use iodized salt for baking and love having a healthier option that actually works well for baked goods. The Northwoods Alderwood Smoked Sea Salt and the Alaea Hawaiian Sea Salt were fantastic for grilling.
We will definitely be using Gourmet Nut for our snack mix and sea salt purchases in the future because of their large variety of high quality products at affordable prices!
