I got a big bag at Costco for not too much (can't remember what I paid) and
keep them in the fridge. I use commercial pesto (Contadina Buitoni or
Armanino) but it never has a reasonable amount of pine nuts, and they're
usually chopped too fine. So I toss a fistful of the Costco (Kirkland
brand) ones in the toaster oven to lightly toast them and then toss them
into the pesto.
