Can you eat "Russian Mammoth" sunflower seeds?

Question:Are there particular sunflower seeds you can and cant eat? Somewhere I read "if your going to eat the seeds make sure you get confectionary sunflowers" but they didnt say anymore than that, and I dont know if the source was reliable or anything. Anyone know?

Answers:
Yea, you can. I'm growing the mammoths right now. After you harvest the seed, soak them in salt water and then roast them in the oven. Here is a site with complete instructions for roasting: http://www.sunflowernsa.com/health/recip...
