Description
Sunflowers originate from North and South America. The Incas worshipped sunflowers as an image of their Sun God. By 1530 the sunflower was brought to Europe by Spanish sailors. Since then, the sunflower is part of the Western culture.
Sunflower seeds contain a large amount of antioxidants.
Sunflower seeds are perfect for use in a salad or cold pasta. They have a nutty taste. Remove the black shells before consumption!
