I havn't, but I have heard to get the nutrients out of the seed, it needs to be crushed. I thought hemp was known for its EFA (Essential Fatty Acids), and not protien.?
eh!

I havent tried it either, but i do have this info about it...
Hemp seed oil comprises 35% of the total seed weight. This oil has the lowest amount of saturated fatty acids at 8%, and the highest amount of the polyunsaturated essential fatty acids at 80%, total oil volume. Flax seed oil comes in second at 72% combined total essential fatty acids. Whole hemp seeds contain approximately 25% protein. Hemp seeds are second only to soybean in protein content for non animal sources. Hemp protein contains all 20 known amino acids including the 9 essential amino acids (EAAs) our bodies cannot produce.
