Wilderness Poets, Organic Heirloom Pumpkin Seeds - Styrian Variety, No Shells, Naturally Hulless. Unsalted, Bulk Size, Grown in Oregon, USA or Europe (32 Ounce - 2 Pound)

I absolutely love these heirloom pumpkin seeds by Wilderness Poets. They’re on a whole different level — the taste is out of this world! I’ve been loyal to another brand for years, but after trying these at Erewhon, I was completely blown away. Compared to the regular pumpkin seeds shown in my photo, these are noticeably larger, more vibrant, and packed with rich, deep flavor. You can really taste the difference — robust, nutty, and perfectly crunchy. The beautiful dark color says it all: pure, organic goodness bursting with nutrients and freshness. Wilderness Poets nailed it with these. I’ll never go back to any other brand! They’re the gold standard for pumpkin seeds.

These pumpkin seeds have a really good taste I love the fact that they are grown in the USA most of the pumpkin seeds you get in the store come from china and do not have good flavor. I was so excited to find these I’m a picky consumer especially when it comes to food. Organic, Raw, Heirloom and Grown in Oregon USA you can’t go wrong. they are great on salads.

Delicious, fresh & like eating popcorn ! Priced right & a little goes along way !

These are fantastic pumpkin seeds. They are fresh, soft and quality texture. They are of excellent flavor and organic coming from Oregon in the USA. I will without question be sticking with these and re-ordering them.

Good taste and quality they are not like Chinese absolutely identical seeds but they taste much better

The Wilderness Poets organic heirloom pumpkin seeds have an earthy flavor and a good crunch, both of which I like. Once, I added some to a fried rice recipe, and I was surprised to discover that they were slightly firmer, when cooked. I had thought cooking would make them softer. Anyway, I enjoy eating them.

I HAVE NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE TASTE OR IMPACT OF EATING ANY OTHER TYPE OF PUMPKIN SEEDS. And I have eaten a lot of organic pumpkin seeds from various sources over the years including the bulk ones from Whole Food. I switched to GoRaw in early 2015 upon discovering that most organic pumpkin seeds come from China because Whole Foods mistakenly told me the GoRaw ones were the only ones in their store that were grown in the U.S. I think it's because as happens with many people, they misinterpreted the UDSA organic label as meaning it is grown in the U.S. whereas it simply means they were grown according to those standards. But the standards cannot ensure that unhealthy metals or other toxins are ending up in the foods in higher levels when grown in countries or areas with badly polluted air & soils & less stringent sanitary standards. So ever since I called GoRaw to ask about their country of origin as it was not posted on their package, finding out it was China started a long search for raw organic pumpkin seeds grown a cleaner area than densely populated China or even Mexico where logistics of such areas usually make it hard to avoid being exposed to contaminants in higher levels than in countries like the U.S. or Canada or Europe. SO I THOUGHT I'D FINALLY FOUND THE IDEAL & TRULY HEALTHY SOURCE OF RAW ORGANIC PUMPKIN SEEDS IN THIS PRODUCT & WAS SO CONFIDENT they would work great given their being grown in an ideal location (lush Oregon) & given all totally positive reviews by reviewers who posted at different times & have reviewed many different products & thus seem to be genuine customers motivated to post by a truly great product. Thus I bought the 5 lb size as it was the most cost-effective way to get these seeds including in then enabling free shipping. I'M INCLUDING ALL THESE DETAILS HERE TO SPARE OTHER CUSTOMERS THE POTENTIAL DISAPPOINTMENT BY RECOMMENDING YOU FIRST TRY THE SMALLEST SIZE IN CASE THESE MIGHT NOT WORK WELL FOR YOU BUT LET'S HOPE I'M THE EXCEPTION. I DID ALSO FIND THEM TO TASTE RATHER LIKE CARDBOARD not exactly that dry but close to it as well as in blandness. SO UNFORTUNATELY THE OTHER PUMPKIN SEEDS I'VE USED OVER THE YEARS INCLUDING THE ONES FROM CHINA WHICH I DID NOT WANT TO KEEP TAKING because of concerns about contaminants, ALL TASTED BETTER IMO THAN THESE SEEMINGLY IDEAL U.S. GROWN ONES. FYI I did last year as part of my search for a cleaner country source of organic pumpkins get Natural Healing House Organic Raw Austrian Pumpkin Seeds 16 oz which since has been unavailable. Those pumpkin seeds did taste & look somewhat different from the usual & as I recall are closer to the size & type of pumpkin seed in this product, but I had no problem eating those even though they also didn't wow me with their taste but I found it worth the compromise for the cleaner country of origin. SO AT THIS POINT THE Skout Organic Trailpak Raw Pumpkin Seeds, Pacific Sea Salt, 6 Count seems to be the best option even though they are rather salty & their other flavors are too spicy for me. And their price is even higher & seems to be rising rapidly in the months since I discovered them. But those seeds do taste very fresh & nutritious & flavor-full & although Mongolia may not be much better than China in being right next to it, it is from a remote area of Mongolia & thus likely cleaner than usually densely populated China. And the company immediately responded to my posted question about country of origin & in their response said they also share my concerns about purity of product & so ongoingly test to ensure no unsafe levels of toxic metals. I found that very reassuring as every other company whose product had posted questions about country of origin concerns either never bothered replying or just said it was China with no mention of any steps taken to ensure sufficient purity despite many Amazon customers increasingly voicing their concerns about these issues.

These are outrageously good! I don’t know what else to say.
