Farm Fresh vs. Commercial Pecans
Why our pecans taste better and are better for you!
What Most People Don’t Know About Store-Bought Pecans
By the time commercial pecans hit grocery store shelves, they’ve often been harvested over a year ago, shelled in bulk, and stored in warehouses or shipping containers under less-than-ideal conditions. As a result, they’re:
- Stale and oxidized, with bitter notes and a dull, waxy texture
- Often rancid, even if not yet expired
- Missing the sweet, buttery crunch pecans are known for
- Stripped of much of their natural oil freshness and nutrients
And worst of all — most consumers don’t even know what a fresh pecan really tastes like.
