Sunflower Seeds for Truck Drivers


When preparing to go on a long drive the first thing I grab, is a big old bag of sunflower seeds. There’s nothing better then the wide-open road and the taste of a salty sunflower seed rolling around in your mouth. But when I went to buy my trusty bag I was bombarded with dozens of choices. A sunflower seed is just a sunflower seed.. right? Wrong! There is so much to consider when selecting your road-side snack that the information can be overwhelming.

First to consider is the flavor. Who would have known that you could have more then one flavor of sunflower seeds. Among the choices I found original, bar-b-q, jalapeno, nacho cheese, ranch, chili lime and even dill pickle. There are also healthier choices such as reduced sodium seeds. While deciding what flavor you want may be a tough decision it is comforting to know that there are choices to please all types of taste buds and moods.

Not only do sunflower seeds make a great traveling treat they have several health benefits as well. They are rich in sources of important nutrients and are very beneficial for growth, development and a healthy life. They also provide a good source of dietary fiber, protein and carbohydrates.

Although health benefits are important to the selection of your sunflower seeds, it all comes down to taste. After reading several reviews online and comparing the facts it seems that one brand of seeds stands above the rest. The leading seeds on the market today are “David’s” seeds with several flavors, sizes and options.

So no matter what flavor or brand you choose grab a bag of nutritious sunflower seeds to keep you busy on the road. It is the best snack for Truck Drivers looking for a little something to eat.
