Thanks to everyone. This was an answer to a question by blueendred, which for some reason ended up in questions. I am now interested in the seeds.

Pumpkin seeds contain something that is especially good for the prostate gland and urinary tract, plus they're loaded with zinc, a mineral known to help the immune system.
From Wikipedia: "Pumpkin seeds are a good source of iron, zinc, essential fatty acids, potassium, and magnesium. Pumpkin seeds may also promote prostate health since components in pumpkin seed oil appears to interrupt the triggering of prostate cell multiplication by testosterone and DHT.[1]" http://www.whfoods.com/genpage.php?tname=foodspice&dbid=82#healthbenefits

pumpkin seeds are really very good to eat, scoop them out, wash them off, bake in oven, cool then salt... EAT!

Personally, I'd prefer something a little more 'snacky'... say, some thin sliced potatoes, oiled and lightly salted then gently fried until crisp... but each to their own.
