I have a feeling that I bought them and they will most likely just sit in the cupboard for a long time. Has anyone made pudding with them? Is it like tapioca pudding?

Yes, it's chia pudding that I described before.  I like it.  But it has to sit for many hours or overnight.

I made a pudding recipe with the chia seeds, but it called to blend them smooth, so you cannot taste them. It was dates, cocoa, chia, non dairy milk. It was pretty good.

I thought of this thread: for DH's race, we received 600 chia vegan bars from Health Warrior.  Anyone tried them? I like them, but the seeds get stuck in your mouth and I spent quite some time cleaning my mouth.

Speaking of seeds, a co-worker who knows I can't tolerate gluten brought in some buckwheat pancakes.  Oh my, they were good!  Better than the "real" thing in my opinion.  Recipe for the batter is here.

I have never tried them, they are pricey, seeds in teeth does not sound great though.

Radial-- i have made GF waffles and pancakes and they are often better than the "regular" kind, esp if you use coconut and/or almond flour in them. Sadly I no longer can eat almond flour, but man it was delicious :D

They are good. We took a bunch home, and I have been eating some.

mg, the back of my package says: "Enjoy as a breakfast cereal, hot or cold; or add to yogurt, smoothies, oatmeal or salads."

in the interest of full disclosure, I have a chia, buckwheat and hemp mix, but I don't see why you couldn't add to smoothies same as flax.

Would this be Chia Goodness?  Yum.  It doesn't thicken up as much as plain chia.
