The catch

The salted version carries 135mg of sodium per 1 oz serving, so heavy snacking adds up, though Wonderful also sells a No Salt version at 0mg if that matters to you. (source)

The honest take

This is about as clean as a packaged snack gets, with a two word ingredient list of pistachios and sea salt. One 1 oz serving (roughly 49 pistachios in shell) gives you 6 grams of plant protein and 3 grams of fiber for 160 calories, with only 2 grams of naturally occurring sugar and no added sugar. A health minded shopper reaches for these because the in shell format naturally slows you down and the fat here is mostly the heart friendly monounsaturated kind. The main thing to watch is the calorie density, since it is easy to eat two or three servings without noticing.
