I've heard they make a good substitute for oatmeal.0

They don't taste like anything imo. You need to add "flavour" to them.
I make Chia protein pudding. It's ok. Plenty of other things I'd prefer to eat!0 -
I soak them in almond milk overnight for my little one's smoothies. I also use them to thicken dishes instead of flour or cornstarch.0

This. For the calories, I'd rather eat something tasty.0 -

I've never tried em, but a neighbor told me she eats them like oatmeal, is she crazy? I don't think I could get past the texture0 -
I occasionally toss some chia seeds in my yogurt. I also enjoy eating oatmeal. I can't imagine the aftermath of eating a bowl of chia seeds. I think your neighbor is crazy.
Chocolate chia pudding is OK. I don't like the texture of chia fresca, chia seeds mixed with lemon water. It tastes like I'm drinking a glass full of tadpoles.0 -
I have them my oatmeal. They're glutinous do I wouldn't enjoy the texture if I added too much - about 2tsp per 50g of oats is enough for me. They don't add to the taste but I 'think' they help me last til lunchtime!0

Lol...We love chia fresca. Of course, we also call chia "frog eggs" so we're all about the disconcerting feeling of tadpoles in our mouth.I occasionally toss some chia seeds in my yogurt.
