Lightly salted sunflower seeds in their husks. This healthy and nutritious snack food is eaten all over Spain. Although it is predominantly a popular bar snack, it is common to see couples strolling along the pavement sharing a bag of 'pipas' or kids and pensioners alike munching on them at sundown in the town square. It is also a popular stadium snack. For the uninitiated, pipas are eaten by cracking the shell between one's front teeth and extracting the seed inside. Practice makes perfect, so grab a couple of bags! The 'pipas' we sell are not the ones that have a solid layer of salt on the outside, neither are they the completely unsalted variety. Instead, they are treated with salted water ('aguasal') so that they have a slightly salted flavour on the inside without large salt deposits on the outside.
