Costco is a huge market so it has many suppliers. I bought a bag a month ago that matched this post: a noticeable amount of empty shells. The next bags were fine. Probably just a wave of product from one supplier.

Seems like a consistent ratio at this point. I would go buy them in bulk myself to prevent this...

Theory: As the factory line fills the bags, the nuts that fall out of the shells go through a grate to another line. Those are used to fill bags of deshelled pistachios.
