Because they’re not as common in many Western grocery stores, finding them can be an exciting opportunity for people who enjoy trying unfamiliar vegetables.

Cooking and appropriate preparation help reduce these compounds.
If you’re trying mature seeds for the first time, use an established cooking method rather than eating them raw.
