World’s Largest Pistachio

Alamogordo, NM | 148 Miles

If you’ve ever wondered where to find the world’s largest pistachio, you’ve come to the right place. McGinn’s PistachioLand in Alamogordo, NM boasts that its 30-foot-tall concrete tree nut is the world’s largest, and who are we to argue?

And just in case you’re ever a contestant on Jeopardy, pistachios technically aren’t nuts—they are seeds of drupes, which the Oxford Dictionary defines as “a type of fruit that has a thin skin and a large stone in the middle.” Other nuts that are classified as drupes include walnuts, almonds, and pecans.
