Sprouts on a special clay planter, shaped usually like an animal of some

The sprouts grew on the surface making it look "fuzzy":

Okay, you claim this chia is edible. Great! How is it used as food for

Same as alfalfa sprouts.

Snip and eat. ;-d


Hi Omelet.

Funny, I have never heard of an Omelet eating seeds ;-)


Seeds go IN the Omelets. g

Especially sunflower and poppy...


Do these seeds do the same as flax seeds do to many people =
Send them to the bathroom very frequently.

No idea. :-)
To us, it was just a salad item.
