Pistachios - The Low Fat Low Calorie Nut

[richmanpoman1]

Good to know. Pistachios take a bit longer to eat, too, with the shelling. I was shocked how many calories in sunflower nuts/seeds. I am doing low carb/fat/sodium/sugar and it is hard to have one without the other. Can you possibly do a video on nuts in general? It would be interesting to see how they all compare, from your take.

And as a hedonist that doesn't give a damn about health, pestachios taste great!

how does it have the least amount of calories and fat? i'm very sure that an ounce of pistachio has the same amount of fat as cashews and peanuts (13 grams) and that a pistachio has more calories at 170.

@AEC32094 Pistachios have only three calories per nut – about half the calories of most snack nuts. Thirty pistachio kernels yield just 100 calories, compared to 14 for almonds and 11 for cashews. You also get more nuts per serving with pistachios – 49 per ounce, versus 23 almonds and 10-12 macadamia nuts.

@AEC32094 I still don't get it. All nuts have around the same fat content per serving. To say the pistachio has half the calories of other nuts based on the paistachio is half the size of other nuts. So, 30 pistachio = 28 almonds = 22 cashews = 100 calories. I can eat pistachios in a gulp, almonds on the other hand would take a lot longer and be more filling. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE 'stachios, but this info is misleading.
