    I have bought a packet of pumpkin seeds ready to eat "zeina" : the seeds themselves look great, fresh and of an excellent size BUT ....they taste so salty that cannot be eaten. It is almost like eating pure salt! Do you think It is a fault/should I maybe contact the company to tell them?

    That doesn't sound right to me. Yes I would complain.

    If they are Middle Eastern style they may have a salt glaze on. It's worth complaining if you cannot eat them as the manufacturers need the feedback. We should be eating less salt anyway.
