Of course they're expensive think of how much labor it takes to put them in the damn shells!

Because they're so addictive, they need to be controlled through price.

I could eat a few bags of them and still want more

Same, though I developed an allergy to pistachios/sesame a while back that has saved me a good bit of money by now

I feel the same way about cashews 😡

Ollie's right now has a whole shelf filled with big bags of white-chocolate-covered cashews for $5 and it's taking all my willpower not to go clean the store out.

Where the fuck my red pistachio go?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

The red pistachios were from Iran and have been under sanctions and embargoes most of the time since 1979.

I always assumed it was because they had the most pain-in-the-ass shells...
