Crownfield Milled Linseed Sunflower Pumpkin Chia Goji Review

REVIEW

Last year we reviewed the Sesame, Cranberry & Blueberry version of Crownfield’s Milled Linseed and it generated the most emails about any other product since. This is the other Milled Linseed in the range of 4(of which I have only seen 2 of in Lidl’s) and also contains Sunflower seeds, Pumpkin seeds, Chia seeds and Goji Berries.

This high in Fibre and Protein very fine linseed mix is softer, lighter and not as sharp(not sharp at all) as its Cranberry sister version and is quite light and fluffy with a mild seedy taste and a slight sweetness from the Goji that sometimes pop an extra sweetness if you catch and crush a miniscule particle of the berry in your teeth.

Decidedly better tasting than the other version and decent enough to be eaten by the spoonful its true calling is to be spread over your morning cereal etc… where it can get lost in the flavour of most cereals but I guess its the health benefits that we are mostly buying it for and not for its strong charasmatic flavour of which it does not have anyways.

However, although healthy in image and subliminal belief, I am once again surprised to see that it has a very High 37% Fat content(although which saturates to a much more reasonable 3.6%) and 10% Carbs turnout which is very high for a prominently healthy lifestyle product. But it is High in Magnesium and has 17.2% Omega 3 which is high on my healthy checklist so I think overall it is a beneficial product but as with all things in moderation.
