Huh, interesting take on things here. The Talenti pistachio doesn’t contain any whole nuts from what I recall, it’s more of a blend. Just thought this was a stylistic difference compared to having whole nuts, perhaps since Talenti is supposed to be gelato.

- nordwind 2y agoAccording to TFA, pistachios are not listed as an ingredient. Maybe they are a part of natural and artificial ingredients or maybe some other natural ingredient is more convincing.
- yareally 2y agoProbably natural or artificial pistachio extract. Much cheaper. Also common for almond desserts to use artificial extract
- fortran77 2y agoThe article says that it's artificial pistachio flavor.
- nimih 2y agoNot only that, but part of the plaintiff's case is that pistachio is generally a listed ingredient among competitor's products, even so-called "discount brands."
- yareally 2y agoTraditional pistachio gelato is typically made from smooth pistachio paste/butter with 40% pistachio in the contents. You can also grind your own, but that's a lot of work when you have to get the skins off. Not that Talenti is exactly that, but it's closer than Cold Stone. Also worth mentioning that what Americans consider gelato (the Italian word for ice cream) is only a subset of Italian Ice Cream, so they probably have other varieties of gelato with pistachio pieces. https://www.davidlebovitz.com/pistachio-gelat/ https://www.davidlebovitz.com/pistachio-gelat/
- fortran77 2y agoThere's nothing derived from pistachios though. According to the article, it's a completely synthetic flavor derived from chemical sources not connected to pistachios.
