Yumnuts Receives an A+

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010

Hey Guys!

Great product! I agree with the YUM!!!!…….you give YUM a new meaning. The nuts are light with your roasting process and the flavors subtle.

I was shopping at the Stew Leonard’s store in Newington, CT today (2/26/10) for my weekly fresh goodies and I met your representative offering samples of new YUMNUTS! I bought the Honey for my husband and the Coconut for me to take to work to much on for a satisfying, up-lifting snack between teaching my university classes. I will now be looking for your product display at Stew’s when I go back for my next shopping trip.

It was funny, I asked the gentleman if these cashews were a Bear Naked product….I’m a fan of their granola also. He told me one of you “original YUMNUTS” were associated with that company in the past. (I read your BIOS and see how you blend well together). I knew I could recognize quality again!

Well…keep up the great product line and I hope to see in the future the addition of new, exciting flavors and different nut products as you expand your horizons.

CT Bites Into Some Yumnuts!

Tuesday, October 20th, 2009

When you walk into a company that makes a product called “Yumnuts”, it’s tempting to joke about the name. But on a recent visit to Yumnuts Naturals’ office in Norwalk, it was apparent that these guys are serious about their nuts. See, I had to do it, but all kidding aside, the makers of Yumnuts want to know if you’ve said “yum” today? If not, they have just the cashew for you.
