"A three-pack of 2-pound bags of Kirkland Signature organic hemp hearts retails for about $55 and is a worthwhile investment for Costco shoppers looking to up their protein intake. The difference between hemp seeds and hemp hearts is that the latter are hulled insides of the former. Hemp hearts are rich in omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids and provides 10 grams of protein in a 3-tablespoon serving. Other health benefits include supporting heart health, digestion, and cognitive function."
"It's also important to note the shelf-life of hemp hearts so they won't go to waste. If these are stored in a dark, cool, and dry place like your pantry, they can last between three and four months. If you refrigerate hemp hearts in an airtight container, they can last up to six months. If frozen, this can extend their life for at least two years."
"There are many creative ways to make the most of your Costco hemp hearts. You can always eat them on their own for a satisfying snack or combine them with other nuts and seeds for a trail mix-inspired nosh. Beyond that, one of the most basic ways to include hemp hearts in your food is by simply sprinkling them over a bowl of yogurt, into a salad, or blending them into smoothies or lattes."
