What it is
Whole roasted almonds are almonds that have been heated in an oven or roaster until they are crisp and have a toasted flavor. They are the whole kernel of the almond tree fruit, a drupe, native to the Middle East and South Asia. Roasting can be done with or without oil and salt.
Why it's used
Almonds are often used as a snack food, either plain or coated in chocolate or yogurt. They add a crunchy texture and nutty flavor to baked goods, cereals, and trail mixes. Manufacturers use them for their taste, texture, and nutritional value.
Health notes

International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated almonds and their components. While generally considered healthy, some individuals may experience digestive upset from high fiber intake.
