Trader Joe's Chocolate Sunflower Seed Drops


"Better than peanut M&M's," says Sonia.

I won't argue with that assessment.

The sunflower seeds provide a decidedly nutty flavor, and there's just the right amount of chocolate...plus, of course, a colorful candy shell on each drop. They're crunchy, addictive, and fun to play with. Makes you wonder why none of the big mainstream candy companies have offered chocolate-covered sunflower seeds yet...

We were inspired to make another short video. Please enjoy our crude attempt at stop motion animation.



Bottom line: 8 out of 10.

  1. Another great thing about these is that they don't melt! A friend of mine brought them camping last summer and they didn't melt in the 107-degree heat!

  3. I LOVE these!! Totally perfect to have a pinch or two as a mini dessert that doesn't require a real commitment. The candy shell is seriously crunchy which is really satisfying. But be careful getting the lid off! I'm not especially coordinated and managed to send them flying across my apartment trying to get the lid off...
