Are pistachios addictive???

[WWJD]

I had never tried a pistachio before. I thought it was green mint ice cream. Anyway, a friend brought some to work and I tried one... then another.. and another.... then I couldn't stop! Peeling open those tiny burst-open shells.... they pile up on my deak, making my fingers, keyboard and mouse all nut dusty. Then I scoop the empties into the trash can and start a new pile. At home, I ran to Walmart and picked up a couple 1 pound bags. The first bag disappeared that evening while I surfed Hayabusa.org. the second bag VANISHED the very next day at some point. I can't stop! The web stie tells me it's good for my heart, and I think I get a good workout opening up all those shells but surely the excessive amount will kill me in a few weeks. Maybe they are growing them with that government controlled M3 nicotine or whatever it was called, that was grow with high addiction rate. Or am I that weak? A sucker for such a tasty nut?? I enjoy macadamias and cashews are da bomb, but NOTHING holds a candle to Pistachios!!!

Anyone else have an addiction they need release from? Anything? Even other than Postachios? Which reminds me... I'm out and need a RELOAD! BRB...

Mmmm... pistachios...

I'd eat a lot more of them if they didn't play havoc with my skin.

I'm personally a big fan of Pringles. I can demolish a whole can in about a day if left unmonitored. Id on't buy them anymore.

"Hi, my name is Mrs. Rev, and I'm a pringle-aholic"
"Hi Mrs. Rev."
"Well... it's been about 2 months since my last chip..."

They are very addictive! I've got to the point where I have to buy them already shelled~ Otherwise my fingers get very sore from eating so many~ They can be bleeding from shelling so much and I'll keep on going until there's no more in the house~

 

[moondog]

yesssssir, they are. Have a bag in my pocket right now as a matter of fact. I may or may not give you one if you were here.....would have to count how many are left.

Yeah, man, crack cocaine and meth come in at a distant second and third to the #1 most addictive things known to man... The Pistachio! If they'd kill ya in a few weeks I wouldn't be typin' this.

WHY AM I TYPING??? IT JUST SLOWS DOWN MY EATING

fingers bleeding.. HAHAHAHAA I'd ADMIT I had a real problem if I got that far.... but my lips were burning the other day - another side affect?

The wifey tells me she gets them at a cheapy grocery store around here called Sav-a-Lot~ Not sure the brand, but they came in a 1/2lb (or so) bag~ She thinks the Super Walmart has them also~ In a clear plastic tub in the produce section~

Here's one for ya... Pistachio's by the pound.. delivered to your door!

On the way home from Laguna last year we (JWCFBD) and I stopped at a place you'd go nuts over! A place called Blackwell's Corner, the Pistachio Capital! Not only shelled ones if you want but different flavored ones too! Garlic, chili lime, roasted salted. They ship too!

I almost forgot about that place.
