Marshall,
Its the ALMONDS that are being Pasteurized NOT the Apricots. And
since California controls virtually 100% of the almond market its a
mess. Not only that they are allowed to sell the pasteurized almonds
with a RAW label. Can you believe this? So raw almonds are not raw
any more and haven't been for a couple of years.
There is a loophole in that law however. The actual farmer is allowed
to sell direct to the consumer Un-pasteurized almonds so this is
how most of us are getting them. Its only when there is a middle-man
involved that they have to be pasteurized. Check online for your
sources. Truly Raw almonds are now sold as Un-Pasteurized.
And there are two acceptable methods of pasteurization- ONE of
them involves radiation and still they tell us this is SAFE. I
don't think so, not for one minute. Its just one more way of
removing our Healthy foods from us, in an attempt to prevent us from
being healthy. A quick trip to Google will verify all the above for you.

It is my understanding that you have to be careful on the apricot pits
( bitter almonds ) now. Either California or the FDA started
requiring them to be heated to destroy the enzyme that kills cancer,
so others started advertising that they were raw, which I understand
they are not allowed to do either now. You may want to talk to the
supplier privately to find out if they are raw or not. They must be
raw to be of any use.
