We use hemp seeds regularly in my house, they taste great and have great nutrition. I had never tried this brand before, though. The first thing I did was just put a plain handful in my mouth. First impressions - very nutty, very tasty! We've since used it on several dishes, including the salad we had for dinner last night. They are a great addition to salads and hot dishes. They add a great earthy, nutty flavour without adding significant calories. I track my calorie intake daily, and adding these in has not changed my ability to enjoy my usual foods. As a vegetarian, I am very happy with the nutritional information of this product! Would definitely buy again!
