Apparently Iran is one of the worlds biggest suppliers of pistachios, so they started growing them in the US and the Dubai chocolate craze switched over US consumption from Iran imports to California. Cutting off Iran's exports.
LOL no.
Iran was the primary supplier of the world's pistachios several decades ago, but right around the time of the hostage crisis in the 1970s, it was realized they could be grown in California.
Bonus reason to buy the American ones: the Iranians used to dye the pistachios with red powder to hide how many of them had gone bad.
That was used for a gag in the first "Naked Gun" movie:
Absolute scenes at the poker tonight.
From ~30 got down to the final table. Me and one other guy.
I pull two 6's - solid hand.
Flop - K, 3, 6.
Triple 6's so I go all in. He goes all in.
Turn over. He's double kings, I'm trip 6. He's raging.
Next card, 4. I'm winning.
Final card, 5. FUARK. He's got double kings and a straight.
Still won £75 so GG. But fuck me.
@Victor It's all manufactured.
There was a oversupply of pistachio and so someone came up with Dubai chocolate as a way of selling them.

Perhaps some coinage / carnage will help to clarify… the choice is, as always, yours.
