Fiddyment Farms 5 LB. In-Shell Lightly Salted

Easy

Love them !!! Nicely lightly salted .

The nicest pistachios we ever had. We have made repeated purchases if you are a pistachio lover these are for you.

Super good. Very healthy. Shipping was fast as well.

Excellent product quality. I really like the product BUT for the first time ever I encountered an unexpected number of empty shells in the bag. I normally see a few in 2 pound bag, but I also see a few nuts already out of the shells. I think: "oh, they've been shaken out, and it will average out." And so it does.This time, it seems that I have bought too many empty shells ....

I have been providing pistachios at my desk for the past 18 months. Due to health concerns, I've switched to low salt and over the past several months I've tried many different producers' products. These are hands down, the BEST.Pros:1 The five pound bag is easy to open without destroying the built in zip closure! Three openings later it's still fully functional!2 The nuts are large for pistachios. On a 0 -10 scale with 0 being pea sized and 10 looking like almonds, these are a respectable 7 or 8. Very plump!3 The pistachios look, smell and taste very fresh. There is just a touch of moisture that makes them have a texture that seems extra fresh and the taste is AMAZINGBALLS.4 For Amazon Prime members, the free shippings prices these nuts a little below the ones sold by my local large grocery chain and the quality is better than the WallyWorld offerings for about the same cost.Cons:1 None noted (empty shells are rare)After a great deal of searching, these are by far the best quality pistachios for the dollar. At the time of this review they were selling here on Amazon for about nine dollars a pound.

A wonderful tasting pistachio, lightly salted extremely fresh great product. The downside is a fair percentage of the shells are empty, that’s right no nut inside this is the first time I’ve encountered this buying pistachios in volume, but it is a fairly large amount of empty shells.

I really liked these a lot. The lightly-salted flavor is a nice compromise between optimum health and getting some extra zest in a snack. Sadly, for health reasons, I'll be going to the unsalted ones after trying these and the unsalted ones -- but for my blood pressure, not because there was anything wrong at all with these.For me, the Fiddlyment 5 lb. Pistachios have consistenly been fresh and of high quality. About 90% of the shells are very easy to remove by hand with my somewhat arthritic hands. The other 10% or so generally open pretty easily with a bit of prying from something like a screw driver. If I had my hands of 35 years ago, only 1% of the nuts would be hard to open.The bag was easy to open with scissors and reseals very nicely numerous times, as I consume the bag -- to keep the freshness in and any bugs out.Pistachios are expensive, but compared to typical local grocery store (i.e. Krogers) quality, selection, and pricing per pound, all things considered, I plan to stick with these as long as the quality remains consistently high.
