How to choose chia seeds

Choose whole or ground chia around the texture you want in a drink, pudding or recipe. Compare plain chia with plain bags, and read the full seed list when buying a chia blend.

Black or white seed color alone is not a useful reason to assume one product is better. Compare unit price, sourcing information and storage directions, and check any additions beyond the seed.
