Just wondering... does anyone in this guild consume chia seeds? I personally find it easy to just add a teaspoon to drinks in order to get my calories (I'm on a customized weight gain diet). My favourite is to mix it with honey and lemon juice.

It supposedly lowers bad cholesterol and a whole bunch of other stuff, but I don't really see a change in my health from eating it.

I was kind of interested in trying some for awhile but never did.

I've never heard of 'em. Honestly, the first thing I thought of was the Neopet.

My Mom just gave me some. Started adding it to my oatmeal and things like my spaghetti sauce. Not a bad source of fibre!
