Ceratonia siliqua, AKA Carob, Saint John's Bread, Cyprus Gold. An ancient food of old Greece.
California Carob Tree seed pods and seeds (or edible toasted carob powder from Spain), dry, whole, clean, raw, wild-crafted organic. Seeds are viable. Pods are considered edible. Biblical desert survival food and also an ancient aphrodisiac. Wild-crafted across Santa Clara County from the very best mature trees. Hard pods can be soaked in warm water or microwaved for 10-20 seconds to make them softer. 
Each pod can contain up to 25% protein (protein content varies from tree to tree, as do the type of pods)! The hard, small inner seeds were once used as a unit of measure evolving into the carat weight system for gold and precious gem stones. Safe for dogs as a chocolate substitute! Carob pod pieces can be used in herbal potpourris as a fixative and for their own intoxicating chocolate fragrance.
The ancient Greeks used carob medicinally, for stomach issues and for singers to keep their throat in top shape.
Saint John the Baptist was thought to have subsisted on "locust" or carob pods in lean times. The inner seeds are 35% gum, commercially made into locust bean gum, and have been called locust beans for millennia. Hence, which locusts were the Baptist really eating? In the arid deserts of Israel where wild camels roam, there is nothing for grasshoppers to eat. (Locusts don't eat locust beans.)
White Buffalo Trading was the first company in the USA to start selling carob pods.
