Roasted Nuts and Peanut Butter Manufacturing
In the early 2000s, salted or dried peanuts accounted for about half of the snack-nut market. The rest of the snack-nut market was split among mixed nuts, cashews, walnuts, almonds, pistachios, and macadamia nuts. Salted or roasted sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, and other seeds also are included in this category. Nuts and seeds are sold both packaged and as bulk food in grocery stores.
Sales of snack nuts totaled $2.7 billion in 2005, up more than 3 percent from 2004. Some 708.7 million pounds of snack nut food was distributed, with more than half sold in convenience stores.

Snack-food nuts have strong competition from potato chips, tortilla chips, pretzels, and microwave popcorn for the nation's snack dollars. The snack nut and seed industry responded by introducing new flavors of seeds and nuts. For example, Blue Diamond introduced lemon-chili and ranch-flavored almonds in some parts of the country, and Planters introduced hot and mild versions of spicy peanuts, as well as low-fat honey roasted peanuts.
Manufacturers also have tried more creative packaging to expand their markets. Planters brought out a line of snacks in small, narrow bags and called them Munch-and-Go Tube Nuts. However...
