Seeds and nuts are the main source of vegetable fats in the vegetarian diet. Nuts, almonds, hazelnuts, chestnuts and peanuts are the most common nuts, and sunflower seeds, poppies, pumpkin seeds and sesame seeds are the most common.

The creamy structure of nuts enables the wide application of this food in desserts, vegetable whipped cream, shakes, salads and nutritious spreads.
