Kakai Pumpkin Seeds are the ones to roast. They are the best, no outer
shell! We grow Kakai's. :)

David,
I am glad you've had a great year, here in Southeast Wisconsin we have had
one of the worst drought on record. Consequently, the cucumber beetles have
been horrible. All my vines got a virus. I may have a couple of pumpkins
that will be 500 lbs. The only thing that I have been proud of is some
watermelons that have been over the 100 lb. mark.
I will certainly be requesting seed from you for next year. I like what you
are doing by concentrating on growing pumpkins that look like pumpkins.
Best of Luck,
Russ Stokes
Burlington, WI

Subject: Roasted seeds
Has anyone tried roasting AG seeds, or is that considered sacrilege
or something?
This pumpkin was safe to harvest. Lineage? Henry Fields. Weight?
68 pounds.
I roasted the seeds ... they taste great (of course, I slathered them
with butter and garlic salt), but BOY are those shells tough. Surely
indigestible.
Are AG seeds normally like this, or have other folks successfully
roasted them?
PS: I promise, if I get a 700+ pounder, I will NOT roast them.
