Black Oil Sunflower Seed for Sprouting

[Guest guest]

Hi all... I've done a search through the forum here and couldn't find this

topic addressed...

I've been reading that a lot of people like sprouted sunflower seeds. I've never

tried them. I was in my local supermarket the other day and saw that they had

10lb bags of Black Oil Sunflower seeds for birds for sale for around $5. It

made me wonder if we could use these for sprouting.

Would this seed be OK to sprout? I would suspect that if it was for birds, that

there wouldn't be anything wrong with sprouting them for ourselves.

Has anyone sprouted these or does anyone know if these can be sprouted and eaten

without us humans growing feathers?.. )

Just curious...
