Since the season just started , you need to eat whole thing ( inside + outside ), not inside onlyFresh green almond developing fruit (nuts) of the almond tree that are eaten whole when the shell has not yet hardened and is still fuzzy, green and fleshy. This tart fruit is available only in the spring, from mid-March into May. A popular snack in many parts of the world, they are often eaten dipped in salt as an appetizer or snack. Early in the season, the center of the nut is nearly clear and gelatinous. Later, as the nut slowly matures, the kernel is white and tender. Near the end of the season, the shell begins to harden, and the still immature nuts are sliced open and the tender, sweet kernel is eaten. Either way, green almonds are an unusual and delicious treat! Green almonds should be refrigerated immediately upon arrival and are best when consumed within 1 - 2 weeks. They made a great side dish, seasoned with salt and pepper. They are very good cut in half or pieces and sauteed in olive oil with finely diced onion and tomato, salt, and lemon juice. Keep in mind: Once you wash the Green almond, it has to be eaten within a day or 2. If you don't, they turn brown. Only wash what you're going to eat. Keep the unwashed ones in a bag with a paper towel in it to keep soaking up any moisture so they won't go bad. Try them - they are wonderful.

HORRIBLE QUALITY! DO NOT BUY
I had such high hopes and these almonds were brown and moldy. I tried washing them and soaking them in ice cold water but there was no salvaging how disgusting they were. So disappointed. I didn’t get my money back

Not fresh- moldy with "goo"
I was hopeful because there were more positive reviews than negative....so I still ordered. Although the package arrived earlier than expected, sadly there was a lot of green goo and mold on the almonds, which is not typical if they are fresh. And, it couldn't just be washed off. Based on the reviews of being packaged nicely I was surprised when I opened the box to find the packaging was a brown paper lunch bag scrunched at the top. I'm disappointed that I had to throw away a good part of the order simply because they weren't edible and had mold that was into the shell of the almonds. I was so looking forward to enjoying these.

Did not arrive in good shape
These were not what I expected at all. Arrived and they appeared to be Bruised and soft/some were slimy. I understand the shipping process can affect produce type things but they seemed to not be a great quality to start with. Threw all but 3 away. Customer service was decent to work with so I gave a 4 otherwise on only the quality it would have been a 1

Fresh and delicious
I ordered this for the first time and considering that it is a seasonal fruit and has a very short time to be purchased , they were fresh and delicious. I ordered it twice and despite approaching the end of the season they were still crunchy and fresh.

Almonds
Some were not fresh. I had a couple but ended up throwing them away. Honestly, I was interested in trying them. Could be I just don’t like them.
