Best Answer

Sunflower seeds, which yield sunflower oil - you've seen it in the grocery.
There are many products that come directly from sunflowers.

Some of these include:

  • Raw or roasted sunflower whole seed as a snack food with or without seasoning
  • Butter - similar to peanut butter, it is called sunflower butter
  • German sunflower whole seed breaed
  • Bird food - either alone or in combination with other seeds
  • Shelled seeds can be used in salads.
  • Sunflower oil is used in cooking, margrine, biodiesel and other products
  • Native American uses: bread, medical ointments, dyes, body paint
  • "Cake" left over from oil processing is fed to livestock
  • Ornamental plants for home gardens use also to attract seed-loving birds
  • Sunflowers produce latex - may be used to produce nonallergic rubber (gloves)
  • They have been used in phytoermediation to extract harmful items from soil

Yes, most of them do, in fact the seeds are very good for birds.
