It's well-known that hemp seeds are a serious super food but I read that sprouting them spikes up their nutritional value to a whole new level. Sort of like sprouting mung beans or chia seeds. So I spread them out on a plate lined with wet kitchen paper, watered them daily and after two weeks of patience and perseverance, here they are on three vegan food items.
I hope one day the people who run our country would come to their senses and stop being paranoid sourpuss control freaks over things they don't understand. It is backed by legitimate scientific research conducted by reputable universities that hemp (a) does not alter one's consciousness and (b) is very rich in fibre, protein, vitamins and minerals. Why people are up in arms over this humble plant is beyond me.
