Has anyone tried chia seeds? They are omega 3 rich and are supposed to help you feel full & satiated. - which is what I am going for!

I bought about a cup's worth at Whole Foods from the bulk section to give them a try. Just made a smoothie and dropped in a tablespoon.

    I heard of Chia pet. That hokey thing that grows green fur when you water it. Good luck with your Chia

    I had my first taste of them this past week, mixed in with oatmeal. Didn't really notice a difference. I've read that you can sub in chia gel for half the amount of butter in baking and can't wait to give it a try.
