Unfortunately, you can almost guarantee any nut or seed butter you see in your local supermarket or health store is cooked. It is common for the nuts/seeds to be roasted prior to processing, heated to high temperatures during processing, and often both. Nuts and seeds are packed full of vitamins, minerals, amino acids and essential fatty acids, but like any food, when you cook them you substantially reduce nutrient levels. Cooking foods also alters their chemical structure, and fats undergo the scariest changes of all. So if you're buying nut or seed butters it makes sense to insist on only the purest, highest-quality ones. That way you get all the natural goodness without any of the artificial badness.
Ingredients: pumpkin seeds, sunflower oil, sunflower seeds, golden linseed, sesame seeds, sesame oil, hulled hemp seed, linseed oil, hempseed oil, pumpkinseed oil.
