How do you eat pistacios? I hate having to dig them out one at a time takes too long to be able to pop one in your mouth. I tried shelling a bunch, then eating them a handful at a time, but they just don't taste as good that way

1-5 in mouth.....use teeth to crack shells 1 at a time...eat nut....spit shell.

Like sunflower seeds, only larger.

Uh, buy pre-shelled ones, that makes eating them by the handful easier.

And thus, the Southern smile was born.  

I eat them one at a time.  I prefer the plain kind.  The red-dyed ones stain one's fingers.

For $24, you can get a silver-plated opener, but there's a maximum IQ requirement to purchase one...

Traders has garlic flavored pistacios, almost as good as garlic soup.

Yep, love those Trader Joes pistachios. Those are the northern Kali-fornia grown jumbos.

Trader Joe's Habanero Pistacios are awesome.  I always grab a bag of those and a bag of Honey Sesame Cashews when I go there.

Arizona Gunslinger® SMOKIN' HOT PISTACHIOS - www.arizonagunslinger.com/

The best on the planet.  Flavored with jalapeno sauce.  Leave a bowl full on your desk and watch the food moochers cry.

That is cheating and takes all the fun out of it.
