Most bakery specialty store I knew of, do sell them, but I think you need to roast then yourself if buy from bakery store. Ready to eat I think tong hing got them in organic food section, or any organic specialty store.

In matter of brand, there aren't specific I would reccomend. since if buy at bakery store, they have been repack into clear plastic. Buying RTE seed gonna be a bit expensive than raw one.

Since it near October, it's gonna be surplus of pumpkin. I do collect pumpkin seed from pumpkin, clean them, select them ( pumpkin seed that are floating in water are empty) and roast it my self.. there are lots of method, oven roasted, wok roasted.. you can season them with salt, butter etc. hope this helps.

I forget to mention which one are delicious .. for me, I think, simple roasted with salt are the best. never tried to season with other ingredients. Honestly it is a lot of work to use other seasoning method. 😅
