75+ Shell-Arious Nut Jokes That Walnut Disappoint (Yes, Totally Kid-Friendly!)
Need a little pep in your step? A little crunch in your lunch? Nuts are the perfect addition to any meal or snack. Packed with protein, fiber, and healthy fats, nuts are a tasty and good-for-you treat. They walnut disappoint (see what we did there?). In celebration of these delicious eats, we’ve rounded up a whole bunch of — wholesome! — nut jokes to share with your kids the next time they turn their noses up at nuts on their dinner plate.
Before we take a crack at nut humor, though, did you know that there are 11 varieties and types of nuts? They include pistachios, hazelnuts, cashews, Marcona almonds, macadamia nuts, peanuts, almonds, Brazil nuts, pine nuts, and pecans. Each and every one has its own flavor profile and set of unique characteristics (health benefits, too!). So, whatever type you choose, your body will thank you.
Now, in our joke roundup, we use the term “nut” a bit loosely. You’ll see jokes featuring coconuts, acorns, and other types of nuts that aren’t really considered nuts at all. But they’re funny, so we thought we’d include them anyway. We hope this does nut leave you disappointed. Let’s get started.
