There are new hybrids that are made for low seeds. The ones I buy at the market (east europe) barely have anything that resembles seeds. Also, they shouldn't really have seeds because you're supposed to pick them when the seeds are still small and soft. The older it gets the bitterer it becomes. When you buy one it should be shiny and elastic like some thick sponge. That's how we use them in eastern europe (which is similar to greek). Probably avoid italian varieties, they absolutely love everything bitter. From what I tested white ones seem less bitter then classic purple.
