I'm quite impressed with Deerfield Farms brand of sunflower seeds. Deerfield Farms is a brand owned by Walgreens. You can find them in just about any Walgreens drugs store.The package labels these seeds as "Jumbo" and they are indeed larger than sunflower seeds from most other brands I've had, including David. The kernels inside the shells are equally as larger than other brands as well.
Flavorwise, they're fabulous! They have the same great taste that the David brand built a reputation for. I've already eaten half the bag, and still haven't found any worms. I did find a few putrid seeds, but then again that's about the same rate I get with David brand.
Interestingly, the Deerfield Farms brand shows a whopping 690mg of sodium for a 1/4 cup serving, compared to just 135mg for David brand. However, I don't really sense a saltier taste at all.
As far as fat content goes, the Deerfield Farms brand shows 7g per serving, compared to 15g for the David brand.
But here's the real kicker. The Deerfield Brand sells for a really low $1.99 per 16oz bag. The David brand will cost you $1.99 for a much smaller 5.75oz bag.
Just to make the Deerfield Farms brand even sweeter, they come in a easy-open bag, with a zip-loc seal. I haven't figured out why David brand hasn't made that switch yet.
Summary
These seeds are awesome. High quality, large size, a full one pound, for $1.99. Thumbs up!
Purchase these at any Walgreens drug store, or CLICK HERE to buy them online.

These are the best I've ever tried. I was mainly a David's consumer, and I have tried other brands, until I found Deerfield's at my local Walgreens. They are BIGGER, crunchier, just the right amount of salt, and cheaper by the pound. I buy at least a bag a week, or get a few at a time to stock up. I don't buy anything else now. I happened to get a bag a week ago or so that didn't have salt, luckily I had a spare bag, and the next time I went into Walgreens they gave me a refund no questions asked. Of course I went and got two more bags!
Thank you Deerfield Farms!!
These seeds are better then any of the competition if you can even call anybody competiton to these seeds.I make everyone I know try them. The flavor is even better then getting david's ranch or nacho cheese. Like the guy said before me they are only 1.99 a bag and the bags is huge!! In the summer I go through a bag a day.Before i tried these guys I was a big fan of Beam's barbeque and jalopeno seeds. Thank you wal-greens and deerfield farms... and if you have any defected bags you cans end them my way!
Hello fellow seed freaks. I thought I was the only one who appreciated Deerfield's Jumbos. Once, I discovered these I never went back to David's. The local markets here are off and on with David's Jumbo. But it doesn't matter, Davids cannot compare. I went to pick some up today and my usual Walgreen's didn't have them. Of course, the Child-Associate had no clue of what I was asking. The site link you have led me to several others in my area that supposedly have them in stock. Thanks for your help and "Seed On!"

These ARE the best seeds ever BUT there seems to be a shortage. I've been to several walgreens in the area but can't find any and they are out of stock on Walgreens.com. If anyone knows where to find them please tell me!
Walgreens does not carry Deerfield sunflower seeds any more were can I buy then at now
These seeds are great,the best i have ever tried. The problem is that walgreeens cannot keep them in stock. at least at my local store and 60 mile radius of my house. If they are going to keep selling them they need to keep them in stock. They get some in and the same day they are out again. Ihave complained and others need to do the same
I'm a big time seeder, and I made the switch to Deerfield Sunflower Seeds over a year ago. Deerfield has the best quality and largest size of any Sunflower Seeds found on a local store shelf. Their seeds have an unmatched freshness, and the ziplock bag is genius. With Deerfields great taste at a awesome price, I would not consider switching back to David's, even if David's had a ziplock bag.
I'm very addicted to these seed, and I'm enjoying a mouthful right now :-o
I started eating Deerfields seed a year ago. I can not stop . I eat a bag a day . alot of times that is all i eat . the longest i have went with out is 4 days .they give bad gas and blotting . but i cant stop eattin them .
Walgreens has stopped selling them. Help! Where can I get them?
I've been enjoying sunflower seeds for over 40 years and there is not a better seed than the Deerfield Farms
I bought some yesterday, two bags. I'm hooked. as soon as they're on the shelf I buy them up. These are the best.

I started eating these seeds about a year ago. I love them. I agree the saltiness seems much less than any other seed brand. I love sunflower seeds but hate the salt. These seeds are consistently good and huge. I never really shopped at Walgreens until now, it's the only place for these seeds and I am happy to go there and get them. Keep it up, great quality.
