Description:	Though the pistachio tree originated thousands of years ago in the Middle East, early production in the United States didn't begin until the 1930's, when a determined botanist journeyed to Iran and brought cuttings back to California's Central Valley. The fertile soil, dry climate and moderate winters in the Southwest proved to be ideal conditions for growing pistachios. After years of trials, production spread from California to Arizona and New Mexico in the 1960s, and the first "official" commercial crop was harvested in 1976. Trader Joe's Pistachio Nutmeats Unroasted & Unsalted are grown for us in California, where US production first began. Thanks to strides in modern technology and food safety, these kosher (pareve) Nutmeats undergo a steam treatment, just long enough to make them safe—but not long enough to make them soggy. The result is nuts that are safe to eat and positively bursting with fresh flavor. Because these Pistachio Nutmeats are Unroasted & Unsalted, their distinct, earthy, sweet taste is simply unmasked—they're surprisingly addicting! A one-quarter cup serving provides three grams of fiber and six grams of protein, making them a filling snack on their own. Their shelled state makes it a cinch to pour them atop salads or add them to a recipe.
