Get Cracking Wonderful Pistachios - {Giveaway} Gangnam style

 {Review & Giveaway}

When I was sent the three new Wonderful Pistachio flavours: Roasted & Salted, Salt & Pepper and Sweet Chilli to review I went nuts .

No seriously, they are delicious. I shared my nuts with a few friends and family. Everyone agreed Wonderful Pistachios are a winner for a healthy, tasty snack that appeals to the whole family...well not so much the kids but more for me and hubby.

I'm trying to choose wisely when I snack . Pistachios , are a healthy alternative to chips, dips and crackers . They are a rich source of energy packed with nutrients, minerals (copper and iron), antioxidants, and vitamins (a rich source of Vitamin E, B-complex)

I loved the mildly spiced 'turn up the heat' sweet chilli -a little added sweetness and tangy heat of chili.



 The salt n pepper was very unique -bold and crunchy.Hubby likes his nuts roasted.

Pistachios are perfect for a pre-dinner appetizer , 'waiting for school bus' afternoon munchies and for family movie night . Pistachios go great with popcorn, on a fruit & cheese platter and the shell keeps little (or big) hands from gobbling them down by the fistful (my boys do know how to chew nuts properly).

Wonderful Pistachios are grown in California and dry roasted - $7.49 for 250 grams at supermarkets.

I came across this Psy video when I was researching my review - hilarious and so catchy

Hugh Jackman the man has some moves, I think he could teach me some things.
Channing Tatum - hopefully he might even let me crack a few pistachios on his abs of steel!
Michael Jackson. I grew up watching his dance. Love moonwalk dance.
Oh my Gosh I wish I could participate, but unfortunately I am not an australian resident. But I am a really huge fan of pistachios, although they are pretty expensive for an everyday-snack. That's why I really would like to win them:) Is there any worldwide giveaway maybe?

Very difficult to answer, would you count Julia Gillard and Tony Abbott as celebrities? I think they both need to let their hair down before the election really hits, I'd take them out for a bit Gangham Style dancing with Pistachio's as our snack of choice :)
Brobee from Yo Gabba Gabba, because just watching his youtube video made my little one want to try some pistachios. For my fussy boy that's a win so Brobee is welcome here anytime!
The Queen of England, I think she has a wicked sense of humour hiding beneath her public persona & I'd like to see it come out. Her crackin' some jokes would be hilarious.
Sam Newman, he's a cracker! We'd have a blast laughing our arses off.
Megan Gale, I'd like to be gettin' into her crackin' ;)
Joseph Fiennes! I couldn't think of any other actor I'd rather get my teeth into!
I'd like to get crackin with Bear Grylls because after we were done he would be able to show me a way to utilize the shells and other quirky things

Rowan Atkinson.
Why? Because, as we saw at the Olympics, he has the ability to entertain anyone aged 2 to 102 with his wit and humour.
Love, love, love him!
