Local resident Kathryn Prather started Nut Nation Pistachioz in early 2009 out of necessity, when her husband lost his job in November 2008. With some hard work and the help of my family and friends, she was able to launch a quality product that is not only unique, but also delicious.

Being a certified nutritionist, Kathryn chose Pistachios because they are not only a very healthy snack and are a great source of manganese and phosphorus. They are also loaded with antioxidants. All the ingredients are natural and there are no preservatives or msg.

The pistachios are seasoned and then slow smoked over hickory chips in electric smokers. This produces an undeniably aromatic and bold hickory flavor. Pistachioz flavors include: Zesty Garlic, Curry Mango, Parmesan Ranch and Sweet Mesquite.

The nuts can be found in several stores in the Kansas City metro area as well as Lawrence and Topeka. Nut Nation Pistachioz are also found at two grocery stores in the resort town of Jackson Hole, Wyoming and at a gourmet grocer in Randolph, New Jersey. For a complete listing, visit the Nut Nation website.

The most unique thing about these spices is that they’ve been smoked so the flavor is not only delicious, but just a little smoky.  Yum!
