Nobby's Salted Peanuts

I have always eaten Nobbys nuts for many many years. Recently I bought a pack and they were so salty with big chunks of salt that I couldn’t eat them until I had put them through a shaker sieve 3 times. It was a huge disappointment. Show details

Nobby`s nuts aren`t what they used to be! – My wife and I have bought Nobby`s nuts for years. The second to last time, we noticed that they tasted stale and under roasted, but didn`t think anything of it. Last weekend, we noticed the same thing. That being said, we both ended up with diarrhea. I was not a happy camper! My stomach still isn`t right. NEVER AGAIN!!! Show details

Nobbys have really lost the plot (and a lot of customers!) – I have been eating Nobbys salted peanuts for ~ 65 years so I feel well qualified to pass an opinion. I stopped buying Nobbys nuts regularly about 5 or more years ago when they were no longer well sized slightly oily with a smoky/roasted flavour. The horrible tasteless dried little pale offerings that are now in the value 375G and larger bags are… Read more

just nasty. I prefer Coles unsalted or salted nuts over the no longer delicious Nobbys nuts I grew up with. Nibble Nobbys nuts? not bloody likely until you lift your game a hell of a lot - this should not be difficult surely the only direction you can go now is up?

Nibble Nobby's Nuts – I purchased my packet of Nobby's peanuts from Woolworths. They are fresh and tasty. One star off because they're not Australian but everything else is fine. Enjoy nibbling those Nobby's nuts! Show details

Nuts are fine. Tasty and salty – I am sure all these bogans complaining because they thin they are from China. Just check your clothes and shoes muppets. Everything is made in China! anyways - nice nuts! Show details

shame – Your nuts are great but omg the amount of salt is shocking l couldnt enjoy the actusl nuts one bit because my throat was so dry and l had such a bitter taste in my mouth from the excess salt. l will not be buying your nuts any more.I bought several packets for my friends also and regret that purchase.Surely in this health conscious time you could cut the salt ontentcin half and the nuts would still be tasty Christina Vickers

DON’T RECOMMEND!! – Absolutely trash and highly don’t recommend!! Why the hell is it soo salty?? Your evil sc*ms trying to make people sick all for a few bucks.

Bad quality – What has happened with your nuts, I thought I had been unlucky and just kept buying a nasty batch but every bag is the same......DRY and small. I won't be buying them anymore the quality is rubbish. Show details

Hate getting totally ripped off by false advertising when the product in reality is disgusting – Thought I may try one last time to buy some Nobby's nuts in the hope that they would be edible. According to packet they expire in 5 months time. Opened the 375g pack, chewed a few, spat them out and threw away the full bag. What a rip off. Smith's food snacks are a bunch of crooks! The consumer council should do something about them. Do not ever ever buy nobbys nuts. The company should be taken to task over this. I'm really annoyed. Show details

Disapointed – Nobby's salted peanuts are now mostly small imported nuts that no longer seem to have that roasted taste that was autonomous to nobby's.they now ,seem to me,to be only half roasted,just like all the other brands. Show details

Don't nibble a nobbies – They taste old and they are really small I think home brand are better quality particularly how much cheaper they are. I see that 90 per cent of the nuts in nobbies Peanuts are imported. Last time I will be buying them Show details

False health rating imo – Who is responsible for 4.5 star rating as shown on pack? Should be outed for making false claim! No way could they be 4.5 star these roasted peanuts are oily and extremely salty blah!! Show details

genetic modification – Too many foods are modified so they're easier to produce and taste poor to insect pests. It's unfortunate then that insects have good taste .

Mixed nuts should be called just peanuts – I am a long standing loyal customer of Nobby’s nuts, I buy quality and expect quality, I have bought at least 5 bags in the last month (my partner and I love them) and the ratio from peanuts to other nuts that are in the mixed bag is atrocious, when you buy mixed nuts, that is exactly what it should be MIXED, not 5% of cashews and almonds… Very poor Nobby ☹️ Show details

Used to be the best now inedible – I'm so glad to see I'm not the only one that thinks Nobby's have gone down the toilet. A few years ago I got my first horrible bag and thought maybe it was a one off. I have since bought at least 5 more bags over the years to see if they have returned to their former glory and sadly each bag has been worse than the last. I can tell as soon as I… Read more

open the bag that they are awful but I still force myself to try a few then subsequently spit them out and throw the rest in the bin. So disappointing. I won't buy another bag.

I even wrote to Smiths expressing my disappointment and I received a generic "Sorry you feel that way" reply and a $5 voucher. I wasn't interested in a voucher. I wanted the delicious nuts back. I've yet to find any nuts on the market that compare to the glory days of Nobby's so now I just don't eat nuts any more :(

terrible – nobbys nuts quality has hit an all time low. they used to be good once. tasteless,small broken nuts is all you get now. this is the last time i will buy your products

Dont taste like the use to!! – I have previously eaten nobby nuts for many decades but not in the last 10 years or so. Tried some tonight and dont rate then very well. They did not have the peanut flavour, oil and salt from the past. Very ordinary with a dry finish. Show details

Quality poor – Always purchased Nobby nuts recent purchase of favourite nuts confirmed quality is no longer a priority in many purchases nuts were clearly old the taste was not a fresh crunch of flavour but a stale taste. Show details

Mixed nuts – Nobbys used to be very good. Now when you buy mixed nuts, you may as well just buy the salted peanuts because that's pretty much all that is in the mixed nuts. I won't bother with nobbys anymore. Show details

Buy Australian not 10% Australian – Nobby had a great name and product. These days the nut are about a third of there original size. Dry and broken bits. Not for me any more after 40 years or so. What happened to buy Australian. Only 10% Australian. Show details

The product is not good enough – I have been buying salted mixed nuts for many years, the last 5 or 6 times i have bough nobbys mixed nuts , they have not been salted , and have mainly been just peanuts Show details

HORRIBLE – I bought 2 packs of the red salted packs before their expired dates, THEY had a very foul taste like they used car oil to cook or roast them!! First time in 20 years!!! Bad management problem!!!! Show details

Well The Poor Reviews Do Not Surprise Me – "It says focus on facts". Here are the facts. I have no idea who owns this brand at this point but they have gone from great 40 plus years ago to complete crap now and years before this. As an B.Comm. Graduate (many years ago) , trust me that this (like many) company is just so endemic in the world now where ... well B.Comm (Accountant for… Read more

example) graduate "crap" would exploit marketing to promote a product, make it really good then "crap" it for nothing but pure profit and the quality of the product gradually get worse and worse as they buy cheaper and cheaper hoping that no one will realize and guess what...most do not. I only pointed out to a mate who always purchased them thinking they were good ol Aussie nuts but not 1 % are Aussie and they come from the cheapest place they can get them anywhere in the world. I am writing this review because after many years refusing to eat them, of course they keep getting cheaper and cheaper as more people realise how crap they are…they reduce the price. Well I am here to tell you that the beer nuts are even worse than they were many years ago. I never shop at Coles ONLY because my closest store is Woolly’s but a year or so ago, I found that Coles actually sell Aussie peanuts at an awesome price and OMG…you can tell the difference let alone avoiding the chemical crap that is used in third world countries and the appalling taste. Again only because of convenience, I travel to Coles to buy just the Aussie peanuts because Woolleys clearly do not give a crap, to buy the nuts and of course I complete my shopping there. Yes … sure a big rant but in this day and age if we can't use this Technical media to point this stuff out the it all is a waste of time. Whenever you shop for whatever Please look where it comes from and buy as much Aussie produce as you can even if not for the country…for your health… and I am one of those Accountant crap !!!

Nobby’s Salted Peanuts – They are supposed to be salted. But the majority of nuts I purchase have the salt at the bottom. I shake them up but the salt still settles to the bottom. They just need a coating to retain the salt. I buy these nuts every shop. Some are fine but the majority have salt at the bottom. Show details
