thai lime & chili cashews

[iAMthebomb]

I just picked up these thai lime & chili cashews at trader joes last week and at first i didn't like them that much but now I'm just eating them like candy haha. I was wondering before I go buy more, if cashews were ok as a snack if I were trying to lose weight?

depends.

are you eating them by the ounce or by the cup?

personally, i love cashews. but i buy them pre-packaged by the ounce...too easy to overeat. but because of their high fat content, they are great for preventing binges/feeling of hunger.

i heard that..but is that fat thing a good thing or a bad one..? it prevents hunger but its also high in fat?

the fat in cashews are good fats and are good for you but i would not overeat. but these flavors could be packed with sugars and salts so read the labels and careful
