Have you noticed how pistachios seem to be everywhere these days, from coffee shops to popular TikTok videos? One big reason for their popularity is that they are widely available. For example, in California, where most U.S. pistachios are grown, farmers produce such a large quantity that the crop brings in billions of dollars for the state every year. Pistachio trees also adapt well to harsh environments, enabling them to thrive in hot, dry regions. Another reason for pistachios’ appeal is their luxurious image.
你是否有注意到，从咖啡厅到热门的 TikTok 影片，如今开心果似乎随处可见？它们受欢迎的一大原因是供应充足。例如，在美国大部分开心果的产地加州，农夫的产量庞大，每年可为该州带来数十亿美元的收益。开心果树也十分适应恶劣环境，这让它们能在炎热干燥的地区茁壮成长。开心果充满吸引力的另一个原因是其奢华的形象。
