Already available as an In-Shell variety, this latest offering is giving consumers a convenient way to enjoy the pistachios they love without the hassle of removing the shells. The In-Shell variety already has a loyal following, with 60 percent of shoppers purchasing only that flavor. With the No Shell format, it’s a no-brainer as shoppers can go straight to the delicious center without the work. As stated in a release, the flavor joins other popular varieties, including Sea Salt & Vinegar, Smoky Barbecue, Chili Roasted, and Honey Roasted.
