Usually reputable raw food sites done the homework for you. I'm sure you know "raw" almonds are usually not raw. I get mine from Spain. This means, a lot of raw almond butter isnt raw. There is a brand made with truly raw almond butter made with spain almonds. A lot of cashews arent truly raw either. You just have to know your source. If you buy online you have to know that they have done all the leg work for you.
