With many sizes and varieties to choose from, you can find the perfect PLANTERS® products for all your entertaining needs in the snack aisle at your local Publix.
PLANTERS® nuts and mixes are a great alternative to other traditional snacks. Besides being packed with good fats and low in saturated fats, PLANTERS® Nuts are also a good source of dietary protein. With over 100 years in the business, it’s no wonder why PLANTERS® is the king of the snacking aisle.
