Simple Truth Black Chia Seeds are a whole-seed product sold under the Simple Truth brand, the organic and natural private label of The Kroger Co., which operates retail banners including Kroger, Ralph's, King Soopers, Fred Meyer, Harris Teeter, and Smith's across the United States. Simple Truth products are formulated to meet organic, non-GMO, or natural standards, and these chia seeds are a single-ingredient product with no additives of any kind.
The sole ingredient is black chia seed (Salvia hispanica), a small oilseed native to Central and South America that has gained significant commercial presence in the United States due to its nutritional profile. The product contains no fillers, preservatives, flowing agents, or processing aids. Black and white chia seeds are nutritionally comparable and the color difference is due to natural pigment variation.
