Wow, they are incredibly cheap in the US - in Australia they are nearly double the price per kg.

Yeah, the US is one of the big producers. Wikipedia says:

In 2022, world production of pistachios was one million tonnes, with the United States, Iran, and Turkey combined accounting for 88% of the total.

Oh yeah he mentions his source is Walmart in a specific state, but amazon is more consistent here.

Always interesting to hear how different stuff is in different countries!
