Pistachio's??????

Anyone out there sell these? I was considering adding them to a few stops that Requested them but they seem to be the type of item that might screw up the machines. I use Cashews as my Nut of choice but would like to see what you vendors have to say

Thanks in Advance

Dave

I used to do nuts but as Lee said, Not much profit so I dropped them. As for Pistachio's, well they seem a bit messy to me.

Cashews are my #1 seller. I would NEVER stop using them. I have found Pistachios sell super well at bars.

I have one location that I use dry roasted nuts. Only because it was requested. Nice profit margin though!!!

Pistachio's,

I used to do them in bars but again not much profit. Biggest complaint was they wanted more nuts for there money.

I have had requests for pistachios but like it stated before, not much profit. If they want nuts, I would suggest Dry Roasted Peanuts. You can provide a decent amount for a bit more profit.
