I use my chia seeds each morning for breakfast. It gives me a boost of energy and protein to last until next meal. I usually sprinkle in on my yoghurt,mix with oat milk and with granola.
Very versatile.
The product seems authentic. I enjoyed the taste, however did not enjoy the amount of time it took for the seeds to "gel." They didn't really form a gel as they were suppose to and remained watery. The seeds also did not plump up, I would find this hard to add to anything besides salad dressing or perhaps a smoothie.

I decided to give Chia seeds a try and add more nutrients and vitamins to my day to day lifestyle. I purchased a bag of Black Chia seeds and have used it as a part of my morning smoothies. I love that it adds a lot of fibre and omega. I also noticed that there is a good amount of Iron and Calcium.
I liked the ease of being able to put Chia seeds into my water for an additional protein boost throughout the day. The taste is very neutral and I like how the back includes different ways to be able to use it like yoghurt or pancake mix so I can incorporate it in different ways. I would've appreciated a little serving spoon included that has the max amount allowed per day just for convenience, as exceeding, the maximum can have adverse health complications. All in all, love that they're organic gluten-free vegetarian and an easy source of protein and fibre.
