Breaking news...Thomas Keiser eats Chia Pet seeds

[Riverboat Ron]

Same problem?

[Guest Bwood]

That is awesome.

[Herbert The Love Bug]

Just don't put them up your butt

I've eaten them...they're getting to be a health food fad. They're really good for you. High in Omega-3 fatty acids.

About like flax seed . Thanks for doing your part to stop the wave of ignorant coments.

[MHS831]

Yes, they are good for you and they absorb liquids and actually expand like a sponge.

Now, this may come as a shock to some of you who only shop in the "As Seen on TV" section of Rite Aid, but people actually eat things called seeds that, if given water and soil, as in the Chia Pet commercials, will develop into plants.

Newsflash: Thomas Davis was seen eating corn.

Chia gotta be kidding me!

Do you know if they cause added weight as the hold water or do they help with weight loss due to expanding causing people to not eat as much? (Not a joke just really would like to know)

You could get the same by taking a flax-seed supplement.

I think Chia is also a good antioxidant.

Not the same amount. Chia has more omega-3, more protein, more fiber, and like Joat mentioned they're much higher in antioxidants.

Also don't expire as fast and they blend better. I know you've put your heart and soul into flax seeds but it's old hat bro.
