A Perfect Pomegranate

I also love pomegranates but they are way too expensive here for me. I admit they are awkward to eat as well. That is a lovely one on the tree there, thanks for sharing the photo Barbara..I had never seen a fresh one on a tree.

I've never seen a pomegranate actually growing. I like them, but as you say - they are fiddly to eat.

My sister and I used to get a pomegranate every fall. It would take us a few days to eat it all. We'd just pick out a jewel and suck the flesh off and spit out the seed. It was a lot of work and one pomegranate was enough.

I have only ate them a few times, but love the taste.

I have never tasted one.

I don't eat them at all, but now and then, to please someone, I would pop a few in my mouth, eat only the fleshy parts around the seeds then spit the seeds out. Quite a nuisance!

Love the fruit. It must be nice to have a pomegranate tree. I'm sure the neighbors love viewing such a wonderful creation by God.

I had a pomegranate tree in my yard when I was growing up. We would just pick them while we played outside and smash them open on the ground and eat the seeds, dirt and all. However, I don't recommend doing it that way, as it's rather messy and pomegranate juice stains. There is a way to cut them open without making a mess and which makes it easier to remove the seeds, but I have never tried it. I don't eat pomegranates very often anymore, since they are so expensive. The last time I had one was a few years ago, at a friend's house, and he just busted them open on the floor after I shared how we used to eat them as kids.

I've had Pom juice before. I've had some pomegranate in a smoothie once a while ago. But that's about it for that big fruit.

I can't eat the seeds either and rarely bother with them. They do look like Christmas ornaments.

oh, I heard the seeds eatable. Is that true? Usually I will eat several together and suck the juice and then spit out the seeds.

It is beautiful but I do not know how to eat them.

I am drinking pome juice now. Cheers!!!

Oh yes I love them , and the flavor . I just put it all in my mouth and spit out the seeds , I haven’t found a way yet either to just get a quick way to get them out

I like to eat them. I just pick the seeds out and eat them one by one. That is a lovely picture above.

Sorry, I have no experience in eating a pomegranate fruit, never was attracted to it.

That is a beautiful fruit and tree. I just chew up the seeds.

I like to have pomegranates. It is good for arthritis,it prevents cancer,It helps in digestion. It lowers blood pressure. My parents, husband and sister also likes pomegranates very much...
