Interesting that you should mention fir. Fir bark is also edible and
has been served up as an alternative to starvation in famine

Chris there is an experiment I am anxious to do for some time now but the materials are not that easily available to me. I eat alot of
the cereal Kaisha which is puffed cereal grains such as wheat, millet, rice, etc.

I was wondering since most every pineseed is edible whether they puff up when heated. I suppose they do. And whenever I order pine seed,
I just hate to use any on such a test.

I wonder if spruce seeds when heated form a nice edible puffed cereal?

And judging from the taste of pinenuts I would think puffed pineseed would be delicious.
