1. Unfortunately it doesn't have cc. Could you summarize for us deafies? nt

2. Here ya go..

“Do I regret ditching peanuts for heart healthy pistachios, not at all.

Do I regret getting this mouse tattoo, yes I do. It was a bad decision on my part,
I truly regret it.”

3. Thanks! nt

5. As a habitual pistachio eater

I have learned to use the empty shell to crack that hard to open pistachio. It works every time!

[malaise]

6. What a great idea

Thanks
I love them and they love me - our two luxuries - pistachios and blue mountain coffee.
My theory is simple - why did we work so hard if not enjoy a few pleasures on this journey called life ?

7. You're very welcome

I wanted to clarify that the hard to open pistachio shell has to have a crack in it. The ones with no cracks should be tossed.

Mmmmmm....coffee.

It's important to enjoy simple pleasures in life.

8. Get a cheap nut cracker

After all, those pistachios grew just for you!

9. Tweezers work with the pistachios. We only use the nut cracker for walnuts, pecans, Brazil nuts or

almonds. I've never used one for pistachios.

10. When we're down to those last few it's time for serious measures

[malaise]

11. Ha

It can piss you off for sure

13. A little change of subject...

Have you noticed how big the grapes and blueberries are getting?

I got some green grapes that took three bites to finish. When I was a kid they were the size of small pimento olives. And the last blueberries I got had many in the basket that were almost as big as 25 cent pieces. It's like they're on steroids.

12. I like to share those hard to open pistachios

with the neighborhood squirrels.

15. Those little guys have fierce teeth - good choice

[H2O Man]

14. I use a

set of stone tools from the Lamoka culture (circa 2500 bc) that they used to crack nuts open.

[eleny]

17. Gasp!

[TheBlackAdder]

16. Same here. I use the one half shell as a key to pry tougher ones apart. No hurt fingers or teeth.

.

At CVS, they have pistachios on sale all of the time. I'm digging their Salt & Pepper ones. Awesome!

18. You described the way to open them perfectly!

I would hate to see anyone injure their teeth trying to open a pistachio.


Pistachios are delicious with many health benefits. Enjoy!

19. Two years ago I saw my first pistachio tree on a trip to Costa Rica.
