Peanuts are only edible when boiled, pistachios are awesome...

[Klaynos]

Pistachios but I do like peanuts. And really cashew nuts should but up there too.

Hard to compare, while both culinary nuts, neither is a botanical nut. Pistachios are seeds while peanuts are actually legumes.

now they are

Depends on the context. If I'm snacking, opening the pistachio shells slows me down on calories. If I'm supplementing a low-carb cold meal with some nuts, shelled peanuts are my choice. I like the tastes of both, too close to call.

 

And I agree with Klaynos. Totally different results if you'd have included cashews.

 

 

 

Edit: Oh, well then, changed my vote. Gesundheit!

Of the ones on your list, I like peanuts the best. However, walnuts are my preferred variety.
