Are Larabars considered a "raw" food?

I'm not certain, but believe they would be considered raw as they appear to be a simple mixture of nuts and fruit.

Yes, they are. I don't know if all of them are, but the ones I've enjoyed are raw. Visit the Larabar Website and see the "Raw Diet" portion. http://www.larabar.com/about/special-diets

it doesn't say raw specifically on the container. it says "unrefined" and cold-pressed"

They are not raw. Ready to go. I don't know how deep. They are very small but that was what I wanted. 1-2 bite size.

Not sure if they are pasteurized. The label indicates merely "raw nuts." Ingredients say: Raw Brazil Nuts (Bolivia, Peru). Processed on shared equipment with peanuts, tree nuts, soy, milk, egg or wheat products." Wish I could answer definitively.

They are considered raw, but a company spokesperson from Costco confirmed that these are pasteurized using the PPO method....that is not good....will not purchase these again.

No. And No. If you do a little research "raw" is not actually raw anyway due to the heat involved in processing.

These are shelled. I recommend that you divide them up and store in separate bags since they are raw.

Nothing on the package about being Dutch processed. Label states "...processed at low temperatures..." which qualifies it as raw.

No, they were raw. Very hight quality. You can roast them or use them in stir fries etc. About 30% less than grocery brands and much higher quality

That question is best asked of LifeTime. It does not say "Raw" on packaging. HTH

I am not sure what you mean by "raw" in regards to this product. I don't think it's cooked. I would contact the manufacturer.

They were raw. I roasted them myself. They were ok, not the best quality. I did not buy them again.

I would be very surprised if the almonds are pasteurized as that generally involves flash heating the food (my aunt and uncle had a dairy farm when I was young, so I've seen milk pasteurization). It's possible the almonds were pasteurized, but I think raw means raw, unheated, unpasteurized. You could experiment with 'nuking' them in the microwave if you're concerned about it.

If you research the Garden of Eden story and the founder, you will find that only the purest food ingredients, etc are used. The RAW brand is the only brand I use.

Raw but likely they have been irradiated which kills them and the enzymes. Thanks to a law the FDA passed a year or so ago to supposedly protect us :-(

They are raw, unsalted pecans. They are as good as the ones from Sunnyland Farms, and cost a lot less, and better than any Costco pecans (cheaper, but stale in comparison) At least in my opinion. I'll order these again
