What it is
Organic raw pepitas are the edible seeds of a pumpkin variety, typically the Styrian oil pumpkin. They are harvested from the pumpkin flesh, cleaned, and dried. The term 'organic' means they are grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers.
Why it's used
Pepitas are often eaten as a snack on their own or added to trail mixes, granola, and baked goods for texture and nutritional value. They can also be incorporated into savory dishes like salads and pestos, or ground into a butter or flour.
Health notes
Pepitas are a source of nutrients like magnesium, zinc, and healthy fats. The FDA considers pumpkin seeds to be Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS). International bodies like EFSA have evaluated pumpkin seed protein, finding it safe. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from consuming pepitas in typical amounts.
Allergen info
Pepitas are not derived from one of the 9 FDA major allergens. They are not a source of gluten.
