Do you judge people who obsess over pumpkin spice?

Apparently pistachio is the new hot flavor

Anyone notice?

I’ve always seen pistachio flavored this and thats but can’t say I’ve seen anymore than usual

Maybe next season is when it’ll explode
===============

Pistachios have long polarized the world’s taste buds – the flavor is bold, nothing like the subtlety of an almond or a walnut. You either love them or hate them.

But one side of the pistachio debate appears to be reigning supreme. Pistachios were named nut of the year in 2023, unsurprising to anyone who had an eye on pop culture.

Pistachio is now a popular flavor of latte. Pistachio butter and cream became food trends on social media.

Vibrant pistachio green even made several appearances on the runway, with fashion designers being inspired by the unique, earthy hue.

The rise of the pistachio in the US can be attributed to California. Pistachios generated nearly $3bn last year for the state, which ranks the nut at number six in value out of the over 400 agricultural commodities grown in the state.……

The sudden boom in popularity has even had some food experts predicting that pistachio may be the next big seasonal flavor to follow pumpkin spice.

But the explosion of pistachios may not spell a green windfall for everyone, as over-saturation of the market means smaller businesses can be left bearing the brunt………
