I just looked up both on MFP... and my answer is they are both about the same. Almonds do have less carbs and more Protein, but have higher calories and fat... So it's whatever is more important to ya..ha!

Cashews 1 oz: Cal. 156, Carbs 9g, Fat 12g, Protein 5g

Almonds 1 oz: Cal 164, Carbs 6g, Fat 14g, Protein 6g

Split the difference and mix 'em together!

Pretty even and I say Cashews are way yummier so they get my vote!

A few nights ago I made a really yummy almond/cashew butter (or cashew/almond butter for vegasneon, LOL)--I just dumped equal parts cashews and almonds into my Ninja blender. Less than 5 minutes later: pure nothing-added nut buttah! Yummmm.

When did everyone start eating nuts? I think I'm still too early.

dr says as long as I chew it well I can at 6 weeks

I'm afraid to eat any nuts for a long time because I cant control myself with them very well at all. Unless I take a little amount to work with me so there is no more, I cant stay out of them.
