Watermelon Seeds

Everyday

Watermelon seeds are the seeds of the watermelon fruit, often discarded but increasingly recognized for their nutritional value. These seeds can be consumed raw, roasted, or sprouted, with roasting enhancing their flavor and digestibility. They are a good source of protein, healthy fats, and minerals like magnesium and iron, making them a nutritious snack or addition to salads and trail mixes. Black watermelon seeds are mature and fertile, while white seeds are often immature or from seedless varieties.
