Remember red pistachios? In the 1930's, the pistachios were first dyed red to attract attention, as well as to hide the stains from traditional harvesting methods. These delicious, lightly salted pistachios will bring back fond memories with their vibrant red color. Just like other nuts, this classic snack is packed with protein, heart-healthy fats and fiber. Join us for a trip down memory lane with a bag of red pistachios.

What Happened to Red Pistachios?
Prior to the 1970's, the United States imported its pistachios from the Middle East and Asia. Due to antiquated harvesting methods, nut shells were often left with ugly stains and splotches. Foreign pistachio producers dyed the pistachios with a bright red color in an effort to hide the stains and make the nuts more appealing to consumers.
Red pistachios became scarce by the 1980's because of a limit on pistachio imports from the Middle East, and a huge increase in American grown pistachios produced through advanced harvesting methods. There was no longer a need to dye the pistachios red because they no longer had unappetizing stains. However, just like many of our customers, we feel nostalgic for red pistachios, which is why we brought them back to Nuts.com!
