I really like the taste of the whole flax seeds baked into certain tortilla chips and trader joes whole wheat pita chips. I'd love recommendations for other products that put the flax seeds front and center, or recipes for making my own.

A local bakery makes seeded fougasse. I got some recently and am craving more. I think it's their rustic or baguette dough, shaped to maximize area for seeds to stick.
You might enjoy Trader Joe's Everything But The Bagel mix, and add some flaxseed. It's really good on pasta with butter, and fast. Try sprinkling flaxseed on salad.

You might enjoy Uncle Sam cereal, as it totally features flax seeds. In fact, there are only three ingredients and that’s the second.

Also, the Kings supermarket near me sells this bread featuring flax seeds. It’s delicious, especially toasted.

You can make extremely delicious crackers out of, essentailly, only (cracked/crushed/ground) flaxseeds. I was introduced to this incredibly simple food (you can just dehydrate rather than bake if that's your fancy). Endlessly customizable, and many recipes out there to tinker with.
