Travel Pro Super Foods #8: Pumkin Seeds in Ecuador!

in #travel7 years ago (edited)

Hey there my Steemit friends. Today I come to you with a great Travel Pro Super food, pumkin seeds! Not only are they very nutritious they travel incredibly well. You can eat them on a plane, bus, train, taxi, and ferry too. Snack on them in your hotel room while lying down and watching some TV. No need to keep them in a fridge either.

I once got caught up by customs for having these while coming back into the U.S. I also got stuck for a green pepper too. A tiny dog came and sniffed me down.... good times..

I like pumpkin seeds but didn't realise the details of their nutrition. Sounds like a good excuse to eat more of them! 😊

One of my favorite snacks! I'm glad it made it to the Travel Pro list! It's such an underrated snack. I'm happy that the spotlight is getting shone on it more these days.

I get asked this all the time too! Hope you don't mind if I also share my tips :) Gah I want to go to Peru and also simultaneously keep traveling Thailand

bro.. I have ate this once or twice. but i didn't know it has this much of good food for our health. thank you very much brother, for sharing this good article with us....

Pumpkin seeds are super delicious = ) I eat them from time to time and there are plenty of them over here. You can buy them either in store or you could buy a whole pumpkin and cut it in half - remove the seeds and boil the pumpkin with some sugar in it and cook the seeds as well. Really delicious and great tip !

Thank you for contributing to the Steemit Community.Keep up the great work and I'm looking forward to your next posts.

And you can eat them whole!

Well, most of the seeds you can, but some people can get fussy about it. We had sunflower seeds as a snack on our last trip (Hong Kong) and Sam eats them whole, however Becca bites it and takes out the small seed inside the seed and eats that. Seems like a lot of effort for something so small! Just eat the damn thing.

amazing post :D i always wonder how i should go about eating while traveling. sometimes it seems impossible to get healthy food. i need to check out more tips like this :D

I eat pumpkin seeds all the time for the taste and I kinda knew that they were healthy but you just totally blew my mind with this post. I will definitely be incorporating them into my diet more now that I know of the many health benefits. I appreciate that you shared this one. Thanks!- Ivy

You are so very welcome! Best wishes on your travels, have fun!
