Spitz Seasoned Sunflower Seed, 6-Ounce (Pack of 12)

The amount I ordered was probably excessive. I now have a box of these sitting in the pantry. It may take years to eat them all, but I doubt I'll ever want for seeds again in the near future. My only mistake was getting the same flavor, seasoned - while delicious and not excessively salty, unless you're a seed afficianado I think you might need to space out your seed sessions.Not too many burnt/weird seeds but they are there. After having eaten three bags (and still so much to go, man) I've had my fair share, but honestly I'm not sure what we can expect in this regard. With so many seeds you're bound to get a few duds.Overall, great product. I would definitely recommend mixing up the flavors if you intend to purchase this quantity. Better than the competition!

I've tried 4 brands of seeds: Frito Lay, David, Dakota, and Spitz. Frito Lay was the first brand I tried when I was a kid, and for 50¢ (or 59¢ now) they are alright for a snack. Then I moved to David seeds when I started working and could buy my own. They are good, but VERY salty. Then I saw Dakota seeds in a local grocery store a few years ago. They are also good, and big, and not as salty as David seeds but still quite salty. Then I saw Spitz brand in Wal-Mart last year and saw the lower sodium content and they also had olive oil on the ingredients list so I bought a back and immediately loved them, just the right amount of salt and the hint of olive oil to give it a mellow flavor. But, sadly, Wal-Mart doesn't carry Spitz brand anymore, so I hit Amazon hoping to find some. And I did (the original flavor) and ordered some.Then I came across the Seasoned flavor. The ingredients list looked great, with brown sugar and other spices, so I bought a carton of these. All I can say is they are just amazing. They are very well seasoned, enough so you can taste the seasonings, but not so much that it is obnoxious (in other words, it is well balanced). I would recommend these as well as the original (salt and olive oil) flavor over any other brand.

I ordered 2 cases of seasoned sunflower seeds. They both had labels saying they are seasoned, although 1 is salted. I just now opened it and let down that packaging was wrong.

I've tried flavored sunflower seeds from several brands. The three characteristics of Spitz brand stand out.The first is the larger shells that don't tend to splinter. The competing brands I've tried (David and Bigs) have thinner shells that tend to become splinters in my mouth instead of breaking into 2 halves plus the nut.The second "feature" is the seasoning. The seasoning is not overpowering. I can eat a bag in one sitting if I choose and the side of my mouth where I "pouch" the unopened seeds does not become raw from excessive seasoning on the outside of the shells. The flavor is a bit amorphous that is akin to seasoned salt where each brand of seasoned salt has a unique flavor.The last "feature" is the generally well-toasted meat inside. I prefer the flavor that comes from a longer roasting time and Spitz delivers that better than competing brands.

This flavor is not nearly as good as the black pepper. Choose that one over this flavor if you are still deciding. Quality of nut is good.

Great product at a great price. I live in the west and these are always with me during my daughter's softball season. I've tried most of the flavors to include the salted caramel (blech), and have enjoyed them all. I prefer this flavor, as they're not as salty and have just the right amount of flavor. I enjoy these so much that I purchased them from Amazon when I went to NY for the summer and my daughter was playing softball. Could not find them anywhere. This brand would be one of few that I am actually loyal to. Thanks!

I really like the low sodium amount in these.....of course the flavor isnt as strong because of that. But I really like them and am trying to get less sodium..... so win.

always good
