TruRoots Chia Seeds -- 12 oz 4.2 5 8 11

Confused I'm a big fan of chia seeds. They taste great and are so good for you. I love to toss a tablespoonful in my yogurt or porridge. This brand confuses me, though. If you look at any brand they are all, obviously, approximately the same with regard to nutrition information. This brand, however, has twice the amount of fat as any other brand with about the same calories, fiber content, etc. Where is all the extra fat content coming from? I love the packaging, the taste, and the quality but am baffled by the excess fat content. It's disturbing. February 17, 2013

Great price Great energy food, too! January 23, 2013

I was a little disappointed I was really looking forward to trying the product. The seed has some grit in it which was very unappealing. I'll try a different brand next time. January 12, 2013

this is a great product I love chia, and use it in a lot of things, this is not only a great product, but the price is very good, I would reccommend this to anyone December 31, 2012

Quality product These chia seeds are fresh and crunchy. They are delicious, too! A good value for a good product! December 29, 2012

truRoots Organic Chia Seeds bring the wisdom of a traditional superfood to the modern kitchen. Ancient Mayan and Aztec cultures treasured the tiny seeds. Their belief that chia, which comes from the Mayan word for "strength", embodied extraordinary powers has been confirmed by modern science.

Chia seeds, a member of the mint family, are bursting with Omega-3 and Omega-6 essential fatty acids, fiber, and B vitamins, and contain protein and calcium. To the Mayans and Aztecs, chia seeds were an endurance food. Today, research has also revealed their role in the regulation of blood sugar and blood pressure.
