It’s addictive? I just thought it tasted great…....warm roasted pistacios, pistacio ice cream, marzipan…....anything pistacio!

Marzipan is almonds.

you’ve never had pistacio-marzipan? regular marzipan is, but mixed with pistacio mass, it’s just divine…..make it every x-mas.

marzipan is awesome

I love pistachios too! They’re so addicting because they taste awesome, but the real reason is the salt. Everything that tastes good and that is covered in salt is super addicting.

I feel the same about cashews, but they cause me to break out.

wildflower's avatar

Yes! love cashews too, especially in stir-fry….....and macadamias….....actually I’m just nuts about nuts. But there’s something particularly fabulous about pistacios.

For those pistachio fans, you should visit Trader Joe’s to get the chocolate pistachio mousse cake, Haagen Dacz pistachio ice cream, pistachio pudding, hmmmmm so delicious

@ edmartin101 ~ I wonder if you can order that cake online from Trader Joe’s? I live 3 hours roundtrip from their nearest location.

wildflower's avatar

Do they ship internationally?

@ Babo ~ you are Johnny-on-the-spot!

@mcbealer you know Trader Joes has a website but you can’t order anything online. I don’t understand what’s the point of having a website, well only to show you the store locations and a few other things about their products

are you serious ??!

I think it is the salt.
