Egusi By Shepherd’s Natural, Whole Melon Seed, 100% All Natural 142 grams / 5oz - For Egusi Soup - NO PRESERVATIVES - SAND-FREE - CONVENIENT, RESEALABLE BAG - Ready to use.

I looove this product. I cook Egusi quite often and wanted to try it fresh. I typically buy this same brands blended egusi but unfortunately, I’m not sure if there is a freshness thing or something added into it. The blended egusi comes off really strong and has a certain taste I didn’t care much for. But these whole seeds were amazing! The smell was almost non existent, they blended well, and they tasted great! I respect this brand and highly appreciate the access to foods that’s not as easy to find. I however will continue to choose these and blend them myself.

I didn't know that melon seeds were a thing but I was experimenting with whole grain, seed crackers over the holiday season and found these to be a perfect addition to my recipes. Mellon seeds have a flavor milder than sunflower or pumpkin seeds and add good background depth cooking or eating enjoyment. This brand of seeds is shelled and I didn't taste salt on them so they are perfect for however you want to prepare and serve them. Definitely recommended.

When the item arrived, it had a strange powder at the bottom, upon further inspection there were a bunch of bugs moving and dead inside. Very disappointed.
