This is the 3rd time I have ordered from this company through Amazon and have never had a problem. The container clearly states that it contains "shelled hemp seed" which I would interpret as "hemp hearts" without the outer shell or husk. But apparently it doesn't say that the husks are removed from the container. This most recent order had at least 50% husks mixed in with the hearts so I took issue. Amazon as well as Manitoba Harvest were very accommodating and sent a replacement order. I was not charged for the first order. The replacement was better but still had lots of husks. I've purchased other hemp hearts in the health food store and there are no husks at all so this was a bit disappointing. If you don't mind the taste or texture of having them in there, then it's a great deal.

I love this company! Their products are always fresh and delicious. The hemp seeds are wonderful and versatile, and I make all kinds of recipes with them. I like buying the big bucket of their hemp seeds because I use them in shakes, smoothies, eaten plain, added to trail mix, sprinkled on salad, and I even make many Raw vegan desserts, soups, and pates with them. I keep them stored in the freezer for extra freshness. This super food's nutrient profile is awesome... highly digestible complete protein, essential fatty acids in a great ratio, iron, calcium, vitamin E, zinc, chlorophyll, and other nutrients.

Just the other day I created a Raw Vegan Frozen Banana Protein Shake by blending 1 cup water, 3 sm-med frozen bananas (chopped), 1 Tablespoon raw carob (optional), 2 Tablespoons Manitoba Harvest Hemp Seeds, and 4 Tablespoons Manitoba Harvest Protein Powder. It was so yummy that I made a second one in the same day and I'm getting ready to make another right now.

This is a fantastic product, I just ordered my second tub. The seeds smell very fresh and keep well. The protein is primarily edestin, which is a native protein to the human being and is the ideal protein for anti-body and immunoglobulin production. There are also no enzyme inhibitors on shelled cannabis which makes it very easily digestible. Also, the fat content is literally a perfect source of essential fats, with the same ratio of fats as are found in our brain! Of course they are short chain omega 3 fatty acids, as with all vegetarian fair, however the human body produces the enzyme delta-9 desaturase which transform them into long chain fatty acids, like those found in fish. It is this process of the human being developing the long chain fats that Rudolf Steiner hints at as being one of the real spiritual reasons to consume vegetarian foods, is that our body becomes a factory for certain fats, which has a certain alchemical effect within the individual.

I thought it would take me awhile to go through these but I finished the tub within 2 weeks. Excellent to sprinkle on salads, steamed veggies, base in smoothies, additive to yogurts and oatmeals, mixed with potatoes, pretty much mix it with anything.

I was showing the tub off to one of my friends who eats more of a mainstream diet and I put it up to her nose to smell it and she said it smelled like dirt it really sort of does, it smells great. It is very earthy and almost bitter in taste, however it is very mild when mixed with other things. The seeds have a robust character of tremendous value to the human species, anyone committed to the development and future of humanity would be wise to befriend and defend this plant of nearly unequivocal value to the human species.

Hopefully there will be hemp farms in America soon If we had eyes to see this food would be a staple in all hosptials, schools, and other major food institutions. The plant is easy to grow and extremely useful in a multitude of ways. Word to the wise: Keep your eye on hemp.

No, these will not make you high mentally but yet I get high physically since three tablespoon of this beauty, once again only 3 tablespoon which is 30 gr, offer me 50% magnesium and 25% zinc which allows me to get to really high spots in the mountains with my mountain bike or catch those big high waves in the ocean since my muscles do not cramp due to magnesium intake of hemp seeds. What an absolute joke, in US they continuously talk about health care but yet this one creation of nature which offers so much not only is not produced in US but yet the only site that I trust for ingredients which is the USDA Nutritional Value, will not offer me any info in regard to this superfood. Now you probably get an idea why so many industries controlling your dear representatives in US Senate will not allow hemp to have a chance to flourish in US. Big Pharma loves that idea since they sell those magnesium supplements which god knows what is in those unregulated tablets but yet citizens of US will not have access to the simple knowledge of all the minerals, vitamins, proteins and multitude of healthy hidden ingredients that this superfood offers at a reasonable price but yet they have all the nutritional value of Chia seeds which hardly has any vitamin or mineral but yet a whopping fiber at a whopping price since it is no threat to any industry in US... shame, shame, shame. While hemp and marijuana are kissing cousins, the amount of THC in hemp is almost non existent. Two tablespoons contains 400 milligrams of anti-inflammatory gamma-linolenic acid and 2 grams of omega-3 fats, plus all nine essential amino acids, compounds that help maximize recovery from workouts. I consume these straight from the container with spoon, an hour before my work outs without mixing in a bowl or as dressing. I consume it first thing in the morning or when I need a quick burst of energy regardless of the time of the day. For years I have consumed 1)raw sunflower seeds, 2)almonds in water 3)organic sesame+flax seeds grinded in coffee maker+cocoa powder+unflavoured protein isolate, 4)hemp seeds, 5)watermelon & garlic on daily basis. Seeds all go rancid due to the oil and the germ of the seed so regardless of the type or brand, seeds need to be stored in freezer, in a dark, cold, sealed container, away from any moisture. If plastic container then it needs to be #5 or for me it is much safer in glass containers that keeps air out. I consume seeds within two weeks and insure not to purchase in big quantities since freshness is a priority to me due to the nutritional value which I consume food for, any food. Hemp is an unbelievable product and you can not grow it in US since it is illegal and big business does not want to see you healthy. No gain for big industries either since it is so cheap to grow with so many benefits that scares big pharma, plastic industry, fabric-cotton industry, pesticide producers, etc... so if you live in US, Canada becomes your only hope. Hemp increases my level of energy without any artificial stimulants like caffeine and sugar. More energy with less empty calorie fillers like sugar and saturated fat, in all energy bars which I never consume. Hemp contains the highest percentage of globulin than any other plant which is an essential amino acid that helps my body to create antibodies, a component of a healthy immune system. Healthy addition to a weight loss plan since it provides essential nutrients such as protein, essential fatty acids, fibre, vitamins and minerals without adding an excess amount of calories, starch, sugar or salt. One of the best natural boosters that I can get when doing any type of sport or when I need energy without a big meal. Hemp is truly a good plant for the environment and it is shame that we have to deal with the politics of the hemp instead of the benefits of the hemp in US. Victim of its own success. This is a super food next to quinoa, kale, broccoli, dandelion, raw honey, garlic, legumes, nuts, seeds, etc... Organic is always better for the planet earth and its inhabitants. Thank you, thank you, thank you Canada.

I am a sceptic so I always start anything as a doubter. The day after we started on Hemp hearts back Dec 1st 2010 , both hubby and I noticed we both had more energy and the brain fog lifted. We eat 4 tablespoons each n the mornings in yogurt or in smoothies. I sprinkle them on salads and add to most of my food.

Ok, our so I thought "Heck if we feel better how bout giving them to our dogs!" Our pug is 11 this summer. He was getting lethargic , lazy, and seemed like he was just kind of depressed. I thought it was just aging and do not want to loose him and see him like this. I add 1 teasp to each dogs food every day and their coats are shinier and have stopped shedding. The pugs eyes seem brighter and they both have more energy so the pug has lost some weight. I hope never to be without my Hemp hearts again as long as I live! I am on auto deliver and we eat 5 lbs a month.

Hemp hearts are God's perfect food! You could live on them and water alone if you had to! Stock up!

God bless us all! Eat more Hemp Hearts!
