Pine nuts?

What are your favorite source for pine nuts? It's getting to that time of year when the basil is overflowing, and I like to freeze some pesto. Thanks!

    costco, my bag seems to be endless, which is good because I seem to burn them often.

      Trader Joes. Huge bags raw or toasted for around $5. Matter of fact, any nuts at Trader Joes are a great value.

        Yep, Trader Joe's or BJ's are my standard sources as well.

          Agree, but the raw. The taosted ones taste rancid.
