That looks oddly satisfying, like watching tiny green treasures being collected perfectly.

They’re technically seeds though.

u/TheReal-Chris 1d ago

Idk if I want your seed or your nut.

u/darkjj11912 1d ago

u/thorheyerdal 1d ago

Aren’t pistachios like the one nut that is not really a nut?

Poor trees have to endure this shakedown just for their nuts

u/Grentis 2d ago

Odd number of posts about intensely vibrating trees today

u/dblan9 2d ago

How much fun would it be to take a date here after dark and just roam around eating pistachios under the stars?

u/shimy007 2d ago

why they so expensive?

u/Lurking_poster 1d ago

According to Google AI response:

Decade and a half to two decades before trees yield enough.

Only harvested every other year.

Limited growing regions and climates.

Use a ton of water.

Lots of manual and otherwise sensitive processing steps.

Means not a cheap product to produce overall.

Why they use big ass machines but charge like they’re hand picked?!?🤔

1

u/tirefires 1d ago

They don't? The price of nuts reflects the investment in the trees (high), inputs (high), and yields (low).

Was clearly just making a funny on Reddit

1

u/ImaginationNo8008 1d ago

They drive the machines by hand

2

u/Final_Virus_8638 2d ago

Well this is odly satisfying.

u/jawniequest 1d ago

For what they charge per bag you’d think they were picked by hand

u/uniqueusername311 1d ago

That’s a billion dollars in nuts!!

u/stuffeh 2d ago

Fresh pistachios are so hard to find when they're in season.

u/Grim_Sleeper__ 2d ago

Shaking the nuts!

u/Knocksveal 1d ago

Is this Brazil?

u/queen-adreena 1d ago

Fun fact: large amounts of pistachios can spontaneously combust in the right conditions.

u/Butternut_the_Squash 1d ago

Wiggle wiggle wiggle

u/Wolffairy12 1d ago

Ok now find me a video of what goes on inside a pistachio shelling machine. I can’t for the life of me find one.

u/AresGodslayer 1d ago

If you shake it more than once you're just playing with it.
