  If the nut looks slightly deformed and/or is dark in the shell and the nut inside is dark, it is not because it was roasted. It’s because there is a worm inside. There’s often a bit of web inside as well. That is not a part of the pistachio. That is the worm’s web.

  I know. It is traumatic, but you know now and I’m glad that you do.

  The only bad thing about realizing this about pistachios is that I have personally struggled to eat them since, and they used to be one of my favourite snacks.

    Well I for one, am not.

    The only bad thing about realizing this about pistachios is that I have personally struggled to eat them since, and they used to be one of my favourite snacks. Hopefully, you will be more resilient than me.

    You really didn’t have to share this and I would have gone on to continue enjoying them. Why? 😭

    Gonna go stand in traffic now and hope the concussion deletes this fact.

        Oddly enough this doesn’t deter me from still enjoying pistachios. I probably will forget this soon

  I read it, but I’m going to try and forget it as soon as possible.
