eksasol: You don't eat it straight, you heat it up and it become bubbly with the jello like texture. But most people from North America have an icky thing with mucilaginous texture like okra so chia is probably not ideal.

Anyway, I prefer to get animal derived omega 3 now,, so I stopped the whole hemp/flax/chia thing. So eggs and krill oil for me.
yeah I love a massive plate of eggs after a workout. unless it's a massive plate if grilled salmon with my homemade mango/habanero chutney. i am make myself hongry

fortune_p_dawg: wtf how do people actually enjoy these things?!
How are you eating them?
If you're just shoving a pile of them in your mouth, there's your problem. You can expect any seeds you do that with to get caught in every crevice of your mouth.

I like chewing 'em up, but that's just because I've got young teeth unlike you old-timers, and I'm weird. Most people use it in drinks, from what I understand. For example, there's this tasty Mexican lime-flavored drink that uses 'em to add a slight gelatin-like texture.

yeah see, i don't really like gelatinous textures. i mean, i can force the stuff down if i have to. they're my wife's, she keeps them in a jar on the kitchen counter and i just grabbed a handful on the way out the door this morning. then again, i make green smoothies she finds utterly vile, though i tend to think theyre refreshing and delicious.. hmmm... maybe add some chi to one of those come to think of it.

That's more along the lines of how you use 'em.
