I always buy a bag when I stop at a gas station. Once I go to started eating some I can't stop! I finish the whole bag in one sitting? They are not flavored or anything, just the salted roasted kind. Anyone else notice this?

Three reasons: Salt, crunch, and fat. Your body has evolved to like salt and fat, which is what sunflower seeds basically are. The roasted sunflowers add additional flavor and scent compounds from the roasting process.
And as a bonus, they're crunchy.

It really comes down to two things, one it gives you something to do and 2nd the salt on then make them kind of addicting. so there you have it.

I know!!! I usually end up eating them until my mouth hurts so bad that I cannot eat another one! Not very bright, I know, but as you said---they are addicting!

It's the salt that makes them so addicting.. But the ranch flavored are the best..
