Why do Costco cashews always smell of fish? I have tried buying them from various Costco locations and they all smell the same.... Fish!
Is there any scientific reason? |
They might be old and rancid. Nuts are rich in oils and can go bad. |
Stop buying them. |
I buy them from Costco all the time and do not smell fish. |
Like another person, above, I buy them frequently and there is no off smell whatsoever. |
Try buying them from Trader Joe's? |
We buy from Trader Joe's and Target's house brand. |
OP here. My kids love nuts and we prefer to buy from Costco due to optimized costs. Their pistachios and almonds are really good but no idea why cashews stink. How can they be rancid all the time? I have been buying for more than a year now and have tried from various different Costco locations.
Will try trader joes! |
Fwiw we’ve bought 4 bags of unsalted cashews from Costco and not noticed a smell. |
Another alternative is ordering from Nuts.com. |
Aldi has the best nuts at the best prices. Their 1 pound bags of roasted, unsalted almonds are literally half the price Giant sells them for. |
You have some kind of genutic allergy |
