They have an anise flavor and are very small. Fennel seed are used in Italian sausage. They're not poisonous but They are bitter if you chew on them in their raw state.

My Italian family ate fennel *a vegetable" shaped as a bulb with wispy fronds. Fresh fennel can be eaten raw like celery or cooked as a vegetable.Fresh fennel was served at the dinner table with antipasto. Tastes like anise or black licorice. Said to aid digestion.

I put them in oatmeal health bars or use them like you would raisins. Put them with seeds and nuts in granola. I like them plain but they soften when you use them in a recipe that has mashed banana or applesauce.

Sure you can, I regularly break them in half and chew them up...they dont taste horrible, but they aren't candy, either.

From what I read, yes it is ok. I took these for a while and actually lost 14 lbs (well they helped me, cant give 100% credit to them). What I would do is let them sit under my tongue for a full minute and then swallow the rest.

No. I just eat them like almonds. They are not as crunchy, and the taste does have a somewhat bitter taste, but I sometimes take a few with my local honey I also take. Makes a nice mix.

I Think they would if you soaked them first. I used them as snacks just as they are. They were tasty and crunchy.

These made me sick, but they are good if you only eat one at a sitting, lol

You could chew them if you had to. They are in the form of a solid pill, but it would be possible to chew them up. Probably wouldn't taste great.

I will be honest and say I am not sure they have helped me lose a lot weight if I had to guess 3-5lbs at the most. What they do for me is curb cravings. If I feel 'snacky' or hungry or want something sweet while sitting at the office I eat two gummies and they seem to fulfill the need to snack so I notice I do not snack on junk food the way I used to. I use these instead.

I would not recommended. You take the chance of getting some into you digestive system.

I'm sure you could but it's kind of dry. I've used them in kombucha to flavor it. But not exactly sure if I'd grab a handful to munch on.

If you clock in to hurt yourself at a buffet twice a week, then no, you will not be satisfied. It will keep you alive and did not cause me to crave water when I tested them. They fill a little oily (just a little) but that makes them go down easier. These are meant as an emergency, not as a meal substitute like a balance or slim fast bar.

I don't know that they will help you lose weight - just help you to eat healthier and that's why you would lose weight. I eat them everyday of my life - I'm a 72 year old very active female and am living large.

Yes, you can cook with them or just eat them out of the bag. They are really good for baking--I use them in an oatmeal almond bread I make--but I also like them on my oatmeal or as a yogurt topping.

I would not eat them, not because of loss of liquid, but because of the possibility of bacterial invasion. I would ask Amazon (if this is where you bought them) to replace them. It is only reasonable that they put them in your hands after you purchase them in a safe condition.

Yes, I think they are. They say they can be taken on an empty stomach. Just to be safe though I like to have them with food. Take a few bites, swallow them, then finish your food. That way they're coated & they also absorb better nutritionally because your body thinks theyre real food. I really like these multivitamins a lot & have bought them for years now.

There is no problem swallowing these .. At least I do not have a problem, and I keep ordering them .. Perhaps you can consider drinking water while taking them .. Good luck :)
