===== Magical Uses ===== The Arabs believe that pistachio nuts, when eaten, act as an antidote to love spells. The nuts are also given to zombies to bring them out of their trances and to give them the rest of death. Curiously enough, the pistachios which have been artificially dyed red are said to be the best for this purpose.
