I don't know the reason why.

IF you’re actually curios, it was because we used to import them, and the importers would dye them red due to discoloration in how they were harvested. Domestic production ramped up in the US and since pistachios didn’t have to travel as far, and because modern harvesting was more mechanized. It was easier to wash, dry, roast and salt them in a shorter time period avoiding the discoloration that required the dye in the first place.

I see, so that’s why they have never been red outside the US

Ok that makes sense because I (a 30+ yo canadian) was so confused.

It’s also about ten years out of date, 25 year olds today probably wouldn’t recognize this

I’m 47 and have never seen this. I only remember pistachios in ice cream but they werent fucking red.

Pistachio ice cream was never red afaik, just the plain/salted nuts in shell. They also used to be way more expensive, so I only remember seeing them a couple times. I mostly just remember the color of my fingers after eating them.

Youre not paying attention like most in here. Or are just looking for another reason to hate on “the others”

Red pistacios still available in canada right now

I don’t think that someone not having seen a thing means that they hate it.

What? Where was the indication of hate? I said I was confused. Last time I checked it’s not a moral failing to be confused.

Yes it has and currently is

Youre all just looking to hate on someone

I’m blocked for some reason and can’t access the page.

Might still be a (North) America thing. All I know is that I’m over 30 and I have never seen red pistaccios in Germany. I remember that as a kid, I didn’t like them but my brothers did and I’m pretty sure, I would remember if they were red. Sorry for spreading all the hate.
