guestAle I traveled to China and y bought a product, I though it was some kind of tea but after a search I understand that it is watermelon seed: Huangdai watermelon seeds (黄埭西瓜子) or frangant watermelon seeds, somethink like that.
I would like to know how to eat that, is it something to eat like a snak? or is it a kind of seed to prepare a tea?, like corn tea...

this is the URL of the picture of the packing of the Huangdai watermelon seeds (黄埭西瓜子) that I bought

No, it's a kind of snack. You need to crack the shells by teeth to eat the seeds inside.
The water melon shells are a little hard and it takes time to be cracked.

You may need more practice if you eat it for the first time. The watermelon seeds are smaller and you may crack the shell and the seeds together.
