This snack mix is not worth the time or effort. It's not very good and it's not very healthy.

This snack mix is not very flavorful. I would have preferred it if there were more spices in the glaze.

This snack mix is not very crunchy. I would have preferred it if the nuts and seeds were roasted for longer.

This snack mix is a bit too salty for my taste. I would have preferred it if there was less salt in the glaze.

I'm not a big fan of almonds, but I loved this snack mix. The other ingredients really balance out the flavor of the almonds.
