About sesame seed
Is your sesame tested for pesticide residues?
Yes. Each lot is tested at an independent lab before shipment, and results go with the documents.
Do you supply black sesame?
Not at the moment. We focus on white and mixed seed.
What about salmonella?
Hulled sesame is tested for salmonella on every lot, with results before loading.
