Hemp seeds taste slightly sweet (low glycemic), creamy with rich nutty, buttery and heavy cream flavors.

Hemp seed uses include hemp milk, smoothies, salad dressings and eating by the handful. Hemp seeds have an adaptive flavor. They can be used in both sweet or savory (non-sweet) recipes. Hemp seeds tend to amplify whatever flavors are present with them, especially sweeteners like Agave Nectar and pungent spices.

Hemp Seeds are rich in protein (33%+), Omega 3 and Omega 6 Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs), GLA, Chlorophyll, and SDA (Stearidonic Acid) which have been shown to increase DHA/EPA concentrations in eye and brain tissue.

An excellent vegan source for protein and energy. Those who consume 5 Tablespoons of Hemp Seeds (with raw fruits and veggies) for breakfast notice that they have enough energy for the entire day, that they expel wastes after every meal, and that they are not hungry again until mid-afternoon.

Did you know?
Hemp fiber was used for clothes, sails and ropes of ships colonizing our world. The Declaration of Independence is written on Hemp paper. America was the world's largest Hemp producer through the 1940's until the paper, clothing and soybean lobbies joined forces to ban THC-free Hemp, to increase their profits.

What's The Difference Between Brands?

In a hemp-shell, the difference between the two brands of Hemp Seeds we carry seems to be taste and price.

SunFire Super Foods Hemp Seeds seem to be a little softer and more buttery-flavored than Hemp Hearts.
Hemp Hearts are a very good price: $10 less per pound than SunFire Super Foods.

Which should you choose?

If you are eating the hemp seeds straight or you have a very sensitive digestive system, we think the SunFire Super Foods brand is a great choice.

If you are using the hemp seeds in smoothies or energy bars, we don't think you'll notice any flavor difference and the Hemp Hearts can save you some money.

Best Brownies Ever

3 Cups	Brazil Nuts
1 tsp	Sun Fire Salt	$20 + S/H
3 Cups	Dates (pitted Medjool Dates are best)
2 Tbsp	Vanilla Extract
1 Cup	Carob Powder	$15 + S/H
1/4 Cup	Cacao Powder	$25 + S/H
1/4 Cup	Mesquite Powder	$13 + S/H
1 Cup	Hemp Seeds	$30 + S/H
1/4 Cup	Bee Pollen	$30 + S/H
3/4 Cup	Chopped Walnuts or Pecans

Add the brazil nuts and salt to a food processor and grind as fine as you can before it starts to turn into a creamy paste/butter. (Note that you do not need to soak brazil nuts – they don’t have enzyme inhibitors like most other nuts). Add the dates and vanilla to the food processor and process until a smooth cake batter like consistency (you may want to add the dates a few at a time).

In a separate bowl add all the remaining ingredients and mix well. Add the nut/date mixture to the blended dry ingredients and mix thoroughly (best if kneaded by your hands – and more fun).

Put the brownie mix into a 9×12 pan and spread evenly, pressing down with your hands to make a uniform appearance in the pan.
