                                The terms "chai" and "chia" are often confused due to their similar sound, but they refer to completely different things in the culinary world. While chia seeds are a real, nutrient-dense edible seed, the term "chai seeds" is a misnomer, likely stemming from a misunderstanding of chai, which is a spiced tea blend.
