Ways to use sunflower seeds
Sunflower kernels go straight onto salads, yogurt, and oatmeal, or into granola, breads, and energy bites. In-shell sunflower seeds are the classic eat-and-spit snack for games, road trips, and the dugout. Because our kernels are dry roasted with no oils, they keep a clean, nutty taste in any recipe and work as a simple swap wherever a nut or nut butter would normally go.
How to store sunflower seeds
Keep sunflower seeds in a cool, dry place in a sealed container or their resealable bag. Stored in the pantry they stay fresh for several months; in the refrigerator or freezer they keep longer. Roasted and salted varieties keep best sealed and away from heat and humidity.

Frequently asked questions
Are Gerbs sunflower seeds safe for people with nut allergies?
Sunflower seeds are naturally free of tree nuts and peanuts, but for someone with a nut allergy what matters most is where and how they are processed. Gerbs sunflower seeds are made in a dedicated facility that is free of all 14 major allergens, with no shared equipment and no shared production lines with any allergenic ingredient.
What is the difference between in-shell sunflower seeds and sunflower kernels?
In-shell sunflower seeds still have their striped outer hull and are the classic snack you crack open and spit. Sunflower kernels are the inner seed with the shell already removed, ready to eat or cook with. Gerbs carries both, in raw, dry-roasted, salted, and unsalted options.

Yes. Gerbs offers raw sunflower seeds and kernels as well as dry-roasted versions, in both salted and unsalted. The dry-roasted seeds use no oils, and the unsalted options have nothing added at all.
