About ORGANIC CHIA SEEDS
Meijer Organic Chia Seeds is a single-ingredient whole seed product from the Meijer brand, the Grand Rapids, Michigan-based Midwest supercenter chain. This SKU is functionally identical to the companion product (ID 1315920) — both contain only organic chia seeds with the same nutritional profile: 500 calories per 100 grams, 16.67 grams of protein, 43.33 grams of carbohydrates, 30 grams of fat, and 33.3 grams of fiber. The two database entries likely reflect different package sizes (such as 8 oz versus 12 oz bags) or different UPC registrations of the same product.
Organic chia seeds from Meijer are grown under USDA NOP certification standards without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. Chia seeds are notable for their exceptional fiber content — among the highest of any whole food — and their plant-based omega-3 ALA content, calcium density, and complete protein profile (containing all essential amino acids). Their hydrophilic nature means they absorb up to 10-12 times their weight in water, forming a gel useful in baking and functional food applications.
No allergens, artificial ingredients, HFCS, TBHQ, BHA, or PHOs are present. Fully vegan and gluten-free. Organic chia seeds are appropriate for all the same applications as conventional chia seeds: chia puddings, smoothies, overnight oats, baked goods, homemade energy bars, and as an omega-3 and fiber booster in everyday cooking and meal preparation.
