What is your procedure when encountering one?
a) Crack shell with teeth b) Put it back in the bag c) Throw it at the dog d) Stick it up your ass (for the gays) Whatever you do, FUCK THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I throw it back in the bag and let someone else deal with it.

I use a half shell from a previously shelled pistachio to pry them open.
If that doesn't work, or if there is one with no seam, I then throw them at the dog. |

so delicious, so much work. i agree with CBR, if they won't open easily, something is not right.

I donate them to the food bank. The poor should work a little bit for their treats.

Sunflower seeds are too easy. Maybe pumpkin seeds.

Red ones that make your face and fingers pink, or natural ones?

natural - I ate my first ones in paris - my parents went out to the Folies Bergere and left my sister and I with a babysitter that the hotel provided - she
brought along pistachios to keep the little american kids occupied

Whenever I think of pistachios I think of the times I've visited my relatives in their timeshare in old peopleville, FL. All the old people head to the
beach about 10 minutes before sunset, carrying their glass of red wine and a bowl of pistachios. Heaven forbid you'd deign to bring peanuts or cashews.
Pistachios only. Natural.

Why is it that every time I'm eating something a thread pops up about it the same day?
Guacamole last week, and now pistachios! I just had a bunch earlier. |
