Chi-Chi-Chiiiii CHIIIA! (pods)

Heyyyy Guys! Well today I wanted to write and tell you about one of my new favorite snacks. The CHIA PODS.. Yes, I said it .. CHIA pods.. Same seed from that old commercial and you can actually eat them!

They are full of Omega 3's, tons of Fiber and some Protein. They also contain many essential vitamins and minerals, like potassium and calcium.. The seeds actually do contain extractable oil, a reason why the Aztecs called the seeds chian or oily.

This one Australian company called The Chia Co has these delicious Chia Pods which I call the On The Go Chia Puddings. Now these are VEGAN and contain only 3 little ingredients. Chia Seeds, Coconut Milk and fruit..(They have different flavors) also NO SUGAR ADDED! WOO!.


Now I call them Chia Puddings because once the Chia Seed comes in contact with any liquid it excretes this gelatine (when its comes in contact with liquid it actually absorbs 12 times its weight in water.... did I mention it also HYDRATES you?!). So the consistency becomes like a nice pudding with little soft Chia seeds inside.



Now here comes the best part.. The Flavors:
