I found some pumpkin seed butter at my local health store. Does anyone know if theres more pumpkin seed oil in the butter, or am I better off just eating a handful of pumpkin seeds everyday? I have no idea which would have more of the oil in it. I did actually find the oil too (finally! I've been looking everywhere) but it costs too much.
Thanks

I would think that the amount of oil in the seeds would be however many grams of fat they contain. You could phone the makers of the butter to find out how much oil is in the butter or see if the ingredients mention any other sources of fat and if not then all the oil should be pumpkin oil. Sorry this isn't much help, just didn't want you to think no-one was interested!
