What do I like about the BIGS seeds? A) They're sunflower seeds, which I love. B) The variety of flavors that they offer and C) I'm having trouble writing this review because I keep reaching in to have a few more seeds.
They went with a simple idea, to infuse jumbo sunflower seeds with different flavors from different companies. Place said seeds in resealable, bright red bags and you have a formula for success. I've always enjoyed plain Sunflower seeds but the idea of having spicy, or smoky bacon flavored ones just hit home. We contacted the Bigs after finding out about them on Twitter and they sent us a few bags, today we're covering the Franks RedHot flavored seeds(Known as Buffalo Wing) and the Bacon Salt infused ones.
So off the bat, love the packaging: Bold fonts, logos for the different flavor infusions(The Franks one has a hot sauce bottle, the bacon one has the Bacon Salt logo). A warm color scheme makes these pop out, and the extra large logo definitely lets you know these seeds are large and in charge.
Flavor wise: The Red Hot ones offer a spicy bite to the seeds that I loved. The kick builds up as you eat more and more and it rocks. The hot sauce flavor isn't too strong, instead being more of a mild spicy tang that complements the seeds really well. The Bacon Salt ones have a really pleasant saltier, smoky flavor reminiscent of a slice of bacon. I'm glad they didn't go overboard with the seasoning! The amount of seasoning on each of these seeds is perfect and doesn't overwhelm the seed flavor..It complements it.
We commend the BIGS for offering this unique twist on Sunflower seeds. Stay tuned for our upcoming reviews about other flavors, including Zesty Ranch and Dill Pickle! Recommended for any seed lover out there. These are fantastic!
