Finally able to buy black Chia seed

"I was having trouble finding black Chia seed, then my daughter gave me vitaCost.com info. I ordered it and was thrilled! I can order 3 pound pkgs at vitaCost.com. It was hard fo me to find in bulk and to get black & white instead of just white seed. I just ordered another 6 pounds. I love it!"
"Chia seeds are so healthy for you and this is a great value. Highly recommend."

Nutiva Organic Chia Seeds - 3lbs.

By lildeets

"The seeds tastes stale but I needed them so I kept them. I mix them in my smoothies so it's not so bad. At first they filled me up but now I'm back to my bad eating habits. Bummer!"

Great protein product!
November 12, 2011
By redwing
from Nashville, TN
"I am interested in eating as well as I can and I saw a segment on Dr. Oz about Chia seeds. Dr. Oz recommended them for their high quality protein. I sprinkle them on my cereal at breakfast and at supper on potatoes etc. A little goes a long way! If you over do it they will really clean you out. Great plus that they're organic too! Other than that, a great economical source of protein. The mighty seed!"

Excellent buy
March 20, 2011
By Defrauded
"These seeds work well for me and I have gotten my 93 yo mother using them too. Virtually tasteless and mixes well with most anything, even plain water. Mix a mason jar full, let sit overnight in refrig and pour out required amount. A quart jar makes enough for a week--- easiest healthy thing I have ever done. This brand is clean and apparently fresh with all seeds hydrating. The price is very good!"
