Manitoba Harvest

I was given a chance to try Hemp Heart product from Manitoba Harvest.  Hemp hearts or raw shelled hemp seeds that   can be  sprinkled on salad, cereal, yogurt,  or you can eat it right out of the box.  I like its nuttiness and very soft texture.
Hemp hearts are a raw, vegan, and certified source of protein, vitamins, minerals and essential fatty acids. The CEO of Manitoba Harvest shared his story  on how hemp hearts  helped  him to be a healthy and  happy  man that he is now.
My daughter love yogurt so we tried it and she likes it.  Hubby tried it too but he is cautious because  they get random  drug tests from his work so eve though  the packaging say that  it won't affect anyone who would eat it.  He wants to stay on the safe side.
I also added some hemp hearts when I roasted the coconut meat that I used as topping for the treat (palitaw - Filipino dessert/snack)  I made for my kids at home.
You may check out their Facebook Page for more  products and  see how they  harvest  hemp hearts.

    Well, I hope you post more about this-I can't eat yogurt (and I love it). Other ways to use it? Like oatmeal or? Very intriguing.

    Very interesting food product. Haven't seen one but I'm pretty sure this can be found in our local grocers.

    Talking about palitaw mommy, I miss it. I haven't had palitaw in such a long time. I think the last time I had it was when mom made some back in Pinas pa ako nuon. Your palitaw looks good. Looks like you guys enjoyed the manitoba harvest product. :)

    That looks delish. It's easier to be vegan now compared to 5 or 10 years ago. Thank God for products like this one. Choosing healthy is no longer a hard thing to do.\
