Will we be able to buy Pepitas in Germany at a Reformhaus or ?

Under what name will they be sold: Pepitas, Kubissamen or ?

They are called Kürbiskerne in German, and should be generally available in grocery stores, though not always in the discounters and maybe not at some smaller locations. Here is one brand sold at Edeka.

The REWE web site enumerates 47 different offers. You can select the markets near you to check which ones are actually available.

Thanks again. Our first stop is Aschaffenburg and I found several Rewe and Edeka markets near our hotel.

If you get south, into Baden-Württemberg, south of Freiburg im Breisgau, in Bad Krozingen is an Edeka on absolute steroids - Hieber's Frische Center. I love the place. What they don't have isn't worth having. And the quality is spectacular. Bet their pumpkin seeds will be top notch.

Gary,

Adding to the great tips already provided, don't forget to check the packaging before buying:

Kürbiskerne, Schalenlos // pumpkin seeds, no shells.
