Pinyon Nuts

Pinyon nuts are a consumable item in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
The pinyon nuts can be used as an ingredient for desert salad and trail mix.

Locations

 * Pinyon nuts have a chance to appear in most refrigerators. They can also be occasionally found on desks or tables indoors.
 * Can easily be obtained at the Followers Safehouse when Doctor Luria there. While she is there, each time a refrigerator is opened, it will immediately spawn up to three new foods replacing any previous contents. The spawn list contains only 23 possible foods, of which pinyon nuts are one.
 * East Pump Station: one on the right as you enter, on a bench in front of some lockers. One on the left, on a table next to two boxes of potato crisps.
 * Goodsprings: In Chet's store, in one of the broken fridges.
 * A bunch on a shelf against the wall where the Boomer Chef keeps his food.
 * Occasionally sold by merchants that sell food items; Quartermaster Bardon and the food supplier at the Ultra-Luxe will likely have a regular supply. Players relying on Survival for healing, especially in Hardcore Mode, are strongly advised to buy them whenever possible as desert salad is one of the strongest healing food items in the game.
 * They can be found in HELIOS One, next to the main terminal.
 * Jas Wilkins at Sloan occasionally stocks 5 or 10 pinyon nuts.
 * Occasionally found on Zion Tribals
