The category Pistachio nuts describes the edible seed of the tree Pistacia Vera. The nuts are sold with or without shell and can be roasted and salted as well. Shelled nuts can be broken in pieces (hacked), ground or made into a nut butter.

Pistachios are also sold flavoured with Chili, Pepper, Lime, etc (Flavoured Pistachios). Pistachios are sold as a confectionary when coated with chocolate (Chocolate covered Pistachios) or caramelised (Caramelised pistachios). When pistachios are finely ground with added fat and sugare, it becomes a Pistachio cream like Nutella.

The category contains 1404 products on 12 November 2024.

Nutrition score

The Nutrition Score varies wildly (salt level, nuts not taken into account?)

Comparing categories

Not relevant.

Quality Monitoring

Generic errors

Superfluous categories

Only the categories that belong to the parents should be present as category. Checking the categories list might help finding wrong one.

Categorisation errors

  • Oneside opposites(these are categories which are incompatible and which are often due to adding an ingredient as a category):

Sales format

Pecan nuts are sold by:

  • package - pre-packed in the nuts aisles;
  • weight - in the bulk aisles;

Regular maintenance

Once the category has been cleaned up one can perform regular maintenance by visiting the links below and do additional repairs.

Extracting data

  • Nutritional values: products for which the nutritional values can be extracted from the associated image;
  • Ingredients: products for which the ingredients can be extracted from the associated image;

Hunger Game

Classify products for the various (sub-)categories (be careful Pistachios with Pepper, vinegar, chili, etc., do NOT fall under Pistachios):

Minmax nutritional envelope

Issues

Quite a lot of products have issues with nutritional values. It seems due to a difference in weight used, either with or without shells.

A few other subcategories could be defined, but have few products at the moment:

  • Hacked pistachios for pistachios that have been hacked into small pieces;
  • Pistachio butters(100%) for pistachions that have been ground without added ingredients like sugar or oil;
  • Pistachio flours for finely ground pistachios
  • Dry roasted pistachios for roasted pistachios without oil.
