1 Robert M.  · What a joke, a bag of peanuts with a few almonds and cashews so they can legally claim it's mixed.
1 Ron  · It was a disgrace. Almost all peanuts and not a mixed nut packet. This is a case fo For the ACCC for false advertising.
1 Anita  · Bag is getting smaller and smaller and it's mostly just plain nuts.
1 Dan  · Too salty – Mostly cheap peanuts. Far too much salt. Why do they do this?
1 Allan G  · try a different brand – Mostly peanuts with just a few almonds & not many cashews & a lot of salt. Not worth what you pay for them !
1 Steph S  · Nobby’s FAIL – No brazils, minimal almonds and cashews. Too many peanuts. Total rip off, really low quality. Won’t buy again.

Classic brand needs to lift its game – As a long-time fan of the classic Nobby's brand and frequent user of Nobby's 'Salted Mixed Nuts'. it's been disappointing to have at least 3 recent experiences of stale-tasting nuts from a just-opened packet. While it's also disappointing to see inconsistency in the variety of nuts, I appreciate that availability varies. Nobby's, please lift your… Read more

quality game. Your famous and beloved brand will only take you so far these days - there's a lot more choice out there and customers will vote with their feet.

this product is a load of nonsense – I wanted a packet of mixed nuts as per the picture on the packet, what do I get, a handful of peanuts with one or two nuts of other varities, what a con. I wouldn't even give it a 1 star rating, obviously Smiths think that we are all that gullible. It should be called, "Mainly Roasted Peanuts"

Definitely "Not" mixed nuts – I have always enjoyed Nobby's mixed nuts, but imagine my surprise when I opened the "last" pack of "Mixed nuts" only to find that the pack should have been labelled, "Peanuts with less than a handful of mixed nuts". So now you know why, #1 the reason for a low star review, #2 My written review, and #3 My words of "Last" pack of nuts. Coles have mixed nuts, they're cheaper and have "Heaps" of different nuts in their bags. Show details

Big disappointment – Mixed nuts? What mixed nuts? Just a packet of peanuts with the odd cashew and almond.. I think we got one hazelnut. Very poor, and maybe the name on the packet should be changed so that it gives a reasonable insight to what the contents are. A person should not have to read the ingredients on the back of the packet to determine whether or not… Read more

the description on the front is slightly misleading. The consumer is entitled to expect better, considering the price.

DISGUSTING – As previous reviews have stated this is more a bag of mixed peanuts. Also it doesn't taste like salt on the nuts it tastes more like a chemical... not sure what it is... Some of the nuts have a bitter, acrid taste. Wont be buying these again :( Show details

Save your money – Really disappointing product. I brought this product over the generic brand thinking they would be better quality. Not so. Terrible nuts no Brazil nuts in the ingredients, poor quality and way too many cheap peanuts. Don’t bother. If you want good mixed nuts buy them separately and mix them yourself. Save your money. Show details

The Nuts are Back – I haven’t bought these for over a year, switching to other brands, because for a few years they were mostly peanuts with very few other nuts. When someone gave me some for Christmas I was pleasantly surprised. They have returned to a great fresh mix of delicious nuts. Keep it up Nobby’s. Show details

Bad nuts – It’s called mixed nuts, however the last few times I have bought these they are peanuts with a small amount of almonds and a couple of cashews. Where are the other nuts. Might as well just buy peanuts. So disappointed, won’t buy these anymore

Full of peanuts and not much else – More peanuts than cashews and almonds. Should have got a bigger bag of mixed nuts in another brand in the local IGA for a couple of dollars more and you could see through the bag that there was more of everything else on it.

90% Peanuts. Very misleading – These used to be a great mix but 90% Peanuts now. No more Brazil nuts either. Should have pistachio's and more variety in each pack. Won't buy another packet again. Show details

Mixed Nuts or Peanuts – Having some good experience of how packing machines work, I think you need either re-calibrate them or update them. When I open a packet of mixed nuts I expect to find roughly equal portions of the four nuts varieties and not peanuts, peanuts and more peanuts.  Show details

Nobbys nuts – 99% peanuts,1% almonds & cashews, feel like I’ve been ripped off again. Why not throw in a few hazel nuts and Brazil nuts, walnuts etc. cheaper to buy peanuts and other nut separate and mix them yourself. Show details

Mostly peanuts – 90% Peanuts. Totally false advertising. Try Costco Mixed nuts. Far Better. Far more honest. My last bag had no macadamias at all. I see they've now (2022) added chickpeas. I guess it's a cheaper filler? What a joke. Show details

More peanuts than mixed nuts – Normally buy Woolworth's mixed nuts and they are pretty good both price and mix. Saw Nobbys on special and thought may have a better assortment....wrong. Lucky to find 6 cashews and a few almonds mainly peanuts and salt wow plenty of that. Sorry but back to woollies home brand. Show details

Mixed peanuts – I actually love the variety of peanuts you get - big peanuts, little peanuts, whole peanuts, half peanuts. All really well mixed. But when Nobby is mixing his peanuts he must accidentally drop in some other crazy nuts like almonds and cashews - bad quality control Nobby! Please do better but keep up with the great peanut mixing. Show details

Still lacking in variety – If you feel the bag you can tell that the variety is no longer there. No big creamy brazils, no pecans. The mix now is 90% peanuts 5% almonds and a few hazelnuts and cashews. I rarely buy them now and when I do it is to check of they have improved quality. Sadly not! Show details

Oh, nuts! – In my home we have over the years been just well-off enough to nibble upon Nobbys Nuts. It was worth it. The freshness, the quality, the mix variety. Alas, it is not worth the premium price anymore. Over the past couple of years, the "mixed" nut-to-peanut ratio has gradually fallen. Prized nuts have been slowly phased out - to not even included on… Read more

the ingredients list. Now a packet of Nobbys Mixed Nuts is false advertizing. 98% peanuts with a couple of sad cashews and almonds thrown in. Way too much salt and even that has dwindled in quality. Save your money. Do not nibble upon Nobbys Nuts.

Oh, how the mighty have fallen – Just as bad as Aldi's Forrester brand; meaning, you get sweet diddly squat mix in the pack. What the hell has become of the world when people are getting seriously ripped off by these companies? Used to love nibbling Nobby's nuts. And judging by other reviews, so did a lot of people. I tend to think Nobby will be nibbling his own nuts before long. Show details

Not mixed at all – I bought Nobbys for many years but now buy another brand which is actually mixed muts. Nobbys mixed is really a bag of peanuts with a few cashews and almonds. Not worth buying, shame on you Nobbys! Show details

Nobby’s lost his nuts – Nobby you have lost a long term customer . Mixed nuts NOT 99%peanuts , where are the Brazil and hazel nuts and we only had about 5 tiny cashews extremely disappointed as in the past we always found them to be the best , home brand nuts has a better variety

Salted mixed nuts – Very disappointed. Bought a packet of mixed nuts, not a Brazil or Hazel nut in sight, just a few cashews, bunch of almonds and 90% peanuts. Never had this problem before, sort out your marketing mob.

Unhappy – Purchased mixed nuts, lots of peanuts but no Brazil nuts or hazelnuts at all and minimal almonds, cashews. If I wanted just peanuts that what I would have bought.

Disappointed! – I bought 2 packets of Nobbys Mixed Nut & was very disappointed. The packet contained 85% of peanut. The rest was mainly almonds with a few cashew & hazelnuts.

Packed in foil so you can't see what your buying – I feel ripped off like Peachblue .The Coles home brand is a far better product than Nobbys,less salt as well. Suppose these packs sell well only at PUBS and CLUBS.Drunks buy anything..Very disappointed.I remember when these packs had far less peanuts and of good quality.SHAME SHAME SHAME I will never be buying your product again.

Misleading – Like other reviewers very disappointed. About 95% peanut and salt, 4% almonds and 1% cashews. Quite the ripoff. Show details
