They are the pine tree seeds that are taken from the pine cones and then toasted.

Pine nuts are from the Pinyon Pine of the southwestern U.S.

Pinenuts grow in the cones of a pinon pine. When the cones ripen, which is in the fall, the cones turn up side down and the ripened nuts, which are in a shell fall on the ground.

Pine nuts come from pine cones. Pine needles are also edible, but are disgusting.
