Could have something to do with the seasoning they use, I eat a bag of pistachios a week and use the 160 number. They’ve not tripped me up yet! That’s only a 40 calorie difference between the two bags so I wouldn’t sweat it. Also, in shell pistachios are such a hack. You have to eat them slowly because you’re shelling as you go. They’re the most enjoyable nut on a diet haha

They are essentially the same. There is a margin of error when it comes to assessing how many calories are in food.
I always hold on to 20 pistachios in shell is 100 calories. I dont think 10 calories would make a difference but I understand it is confusing!
Hers a site I find helpful when I’m counting calories for nuts:
