Pistachios

This is an oddball synchronicity that involves pistachios. Yeah, you read that right.
This evening while we were watching the news, Rob got out a bag of pistachios that we could snack on. He asked if pistachios are good for you, so I went to my computer and Googled it. Turns out they are. From WEB MD:

Among the possible health benefits of pistachios:

High levels of unsaturated fatty acids and potassium. Both have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory traits.

They can lower your chances for cardiovascular disease. 

Pistachios are bursting with the fiber, minerals, and unsaturated fat that can help keep your blood sugar, blood pressure, and cholesterol in check.

Their fiber and protein can make you feel fuller for longer. This fiber can also have a positive effect on your gut by aiding “good” bacteria.

They can help you manage your weight since they’re a nutritious and satisfying snack. This may help you eat less overall and lose weight. Buying pistachios in their shells slows down your eating.

Some studies suggest that eating pistachios lowers the amount of fat and sugar (glycemic index) in your blood, as well as improves the flexibility and tone of your blood vessels. 

So as I read this aloud, Rob paused the ads, then suddenly laughed. “You won’t believe this. Take a look.”

I hurried back to the family room and there on the TV was an ad for pistachios.
“So what’s it mean?” Rob asked. “Is every coincidence a synchronicity?”

And as we were talking about that, the possible meaning, a second ad about pistachios came on and it was different from that first ad.

Other than the health benefits of pistachio, we aren’t sure what the message is. It’s definitely a coincidence, but is it a synchronicity?

    Don’t eat too many salty ones. The salt is not good.
    The synchro was probably trying to tell you how many nuts will be running the House come January.

    Funny thing is I’m reading Mary Shelley’s novel ‘Frankenstein’ right now and I see this TV American commercial for pistachios 🙂 –

    Now you guys are making me hungry for pistachios.
    We have them in the shops over here in Australia, but I have never seen any TV commercials for them over here, like this 2013 Superbowl ad I just watched on You Tube while trying to find the commercials you may have watched, to see what message there may have been in them, as far as synchros go –
