To intensify the taste of sunflower seeds, lightly toast them in a dry pan and add to salads, home made bread, in a sandwich on muesli, yogurt or baked potatoes. Oil from sunflower seeds is widely available and sold for its health properties, but buyers beware the oil is very delicate with a low smoking point and is often extracted using toxic hydrocarbons which are then removed before sale never the less, some of these hydrocarbons are lost in the process and some residues exist in the oils as well as escape into the atmosphere and water outflows where they are harmful pollutants.
