So many of my salad recipes call for nuts as one of the main ingredients My grandson has severe allergies to peanuts and tree nuts, so these allow us to make our classic salads with roasted sunflower seeds in place of pecans, walnuts, cashews or peanuts.

I absolutely love these pumpkin seeds! I eat a big spinach salad every evening at dinner, and it would not be the same without Gerbs pumpkin seeds! They are always fresh, and not too salty. They add such great flavor and crunch to my healthy salad. Best pumpkin seeds I’ve found, and I’ve tried a lot of different companies!

Finding Gerbs has been a lifesaver for my family. We all have severe nut allergies and I feel so much better know that their products are nut-free. My kids ask for them constantly and I use them in homemade trail mix and granola.

I am so happy to have access to Gerbs. I thought I was going to have to give up seeds all together, since everyone else seems to process them in nut-ridden facilities. Not only do I get to enjoy seeds again, but these are delicious!
