Nuts about peanuts and cashews? Get to know our Unsalted Roasted Baru Nuts—they taste like both! Jam-packed with more fiber and protein than almonds or walnuts, they make a terrific snack for supercharging your health. We import our Barus from the Brazilian savanna where they’re grown without pesticides or fertilizers. Enjoy Barus straight out of the bag, with your favorite dried fruit or cheese or in a buddha bowl or salad.

Why the Roasted Baru Nut?

On top of being rich in nutrients and full of nutty flavor, our Baru nuts also support the economy and environment of the Cerrado, Brazil, where Barus grow in the Brazilian savanna. Before the discovery of the Baru nuts’ health benefits, the Brazilian savanna was at risk of becoming an empty landscape with the burning down of trees for charcoal and cattle ranching (the two main sources of income for surrounding communities). With an increased demand for Baru nuts in the U.S., the maintaining of trees for harvesting can help improve the economy and support the environment, making Barus a pro-planet pick!
