Sport Flax seeds, how do they taste?

Sport Fitness
I was at the drug store yesterday and i saw this giant bag of flax seeds for like $1.99. I'd only ever seen the oil at the supplement store i go to. I was wondering how these things taste. They were selling them right by the peanuts so i assume you can snack on them. Also, how much would i have to eat to get the same amount of EFA's as i would get from a tbsp of the oil? Also are there any benefits to eating the seeds as opposed to just going with the oil?

I have been using the flex seed caps and the seeds. The seeds, to my surprise, do not taste bad. They are quiet neutral in taste.

In a small glass of water, I add 3 table spoonfuls, mix it and drink it.
Some people add it to yogurt or cereals as well.

The pack should tell you the nutrition information.
