Raw pecans?

[SedonaSun]

Are pecans raw unless they say otherwise??

I went to Costco today and they have bags of "raw almonds", "raw pinenuts", and "pecans". It doesn't say they're raw pecans and it doesn't say they've been processed in any way. No other ingredients than pecans.

I assumed they specified "raw" on the others because roasted/toasted almonds and pinenuts are common, though that could be an incorrect assumption.

They also sell bagged walnuts, but I didn't think to look at that bag to see if they're raw or not.

I really hope they're all raw because they're much cheaper than the HFS.

Thoughts anyone??

I have never heard of roasting pecans, but that is just me....

they're probably raw...but they might use some sort of mechanism to shell them that involves heat...so i don't know...check if there is a phone number somewhere on the bag...or look up the name of the company on the web...maybe there's an e-mail adress somewhere, where you can write to and inquire
