Small snacks with a long history

As early as seven hundred thousand years ago, humans discovered nuts—a type of food that still has its place in our everyday lives.

Archaeological findings show that almonds, hazelnuts, and walnuts were part of the human diet even in prehistoric times, as they provided what was needed then just as it is today: stable energy, satiety, and essential nutrients.

Throughout history, nuts have represented much more than just food.

In ancient Rome, walnuts were thrown at weddings as a symbol of fertility and abundance; in China, they were called “the food of longevity,” while in the Middle Ages they followed trade routes that connected continents and cultures.

During the Renaissance, they adorned the tables of the nobility—not only for their taste, but also for the status and respect for nature they symbolized.

Although times have changed, the reasons we eat them have remained the same.

Even today, nuts represent the perfect blend of simplicity and nutritional value: rich in healthy fats, fiber, vitamins, and minerals, they are proof that nature has always offered the best.

That’s why JUMBO nuts are not just an opportunity to enjoy a flavor we love, but also a reminder that some good habits have endured for thousands of years.
