Do you like them raw or roasted? Or both? I had bought a few pumpkins last fall for decorating and then took the seeds out to toast myself even though I usually eat nuts and seeds raw. It was fun few hours but turned into a little too much work, Lol.I wonder if the location challenge is locally on your end or if it's everywhere.....I hadn't thought to look at US origination for seeds.... I usually read labels for organic and non gmo and stop there on packaged foods. One of the 2 brands I have in the house does also say China. The other says grown in the USA on it....
Thank you for the heads up.

but there are many fond memories and maybe from those days, while these were farmed in america, (but who knows?). but my favoritest memory of all is while i was still in my teens and we’d buy a huge halloween pumpkin which i’d carve with great care and the “prize“… the “treat”… was the joy of all those pumpkin seeds which i’d clean, wash, deslime etc and then fry in oil and salt until gloriously dark brown and crispy so that even the outside could be eaten. then for the next several days, since i was the one who loved them the most - i’d crunch away and you’d think i‘d get tired of them but not a chance and eventually all gone until next halloween. the good old days!!! any time or tea time, yum. couldn’t resist sharing….👽
but I agree, the result was a couple of weeks worth of yum🙂 Quite alright @extraterrestrialone !
I was just making my dinner & thinking that tonight I’ll research US grown pumpkin seeds.

wow, who makes those triangular rice balls anyway? wherever you go they look exactly the same down to the bar code yet you are on the west coast and I'm on the east. and there always is label over label and tell me if I'm wrong, but don't those labels get in the way of the mechanism for opening those damn (yet delicious treats)??? now I'm on my bed just finished therapy but wish I could be strolling down to the local Japanese supermarket 😢
now behind that ale in the background I see what looks like a really steep stairwell in what could almost be a NY subway - bannister and everything, but I know it's really another bar code. just had to mention... 👽

They totally get in the way !
It’s Mitsuwa!! Lol They do have one in New Jersey over there. They have em all spread out over the nation.
Just a lot more in California
I live right across the street from a Japanese shopping center! They also have a Daiso.
probably one of the most delicious shopping center lol! 😂
that was a kobu omusubi
Was kelp.
I’ll have to make a video while I’m in there and send it to you haha . It will be like we went together.
I need to find me a Japanese friend to help me out with some things. 😂 sometimes I go in there and be like.. why not, let’s do this!
Yes!! OMG their salmon of all things so wonderful and cheaper! I am like wtf!
everything is usually way more expensive. Not the salmon shrug 🤷♀️
The triangle rice ball maker they got stuffed in the back 😂 he’s our man!
crazy thing ! They take half the store into the back at night. Lol literally around 6 pm they start unsticking the shelves 😂 craziest thing I ever seen

What’s your fav thing to get at your store?

yeah mitsuwa is across the river in NJ. but even the little shop in forest hills has the same ones. salmon is my fav... 😁 now I'm thinking ramen and tako yaki... yum. beer too of course. then later I could go for a sushi buffet. ( but gotta find a clever way to not eat all the rice and not let them know it - like stuff it in your pockets... 👽
