pomegranates

Answers
You can cut them in half and then just whack 'em with the handle of the knife. This is a lazy way.

B-b-but you still have to pull apart the kernels, and spit out the seeds of each one you eat.

I have always thought of them as the fruit of dandys. No, they are not worth the effort in fruit rockist terms.

Don't spit out the seeds, just eat them. Then a little pomegranate tree will grow in your tummy.

I always think of them as the fruit of parables, and thus will never eat one.

Is this what I'm supposed to do, Graham?

1. You eat the seeds.
2.To get to the fruity kernel bits, you fill up a big bowl with water, and rip them apart underwater. The fruity kernel bits will sink to the bottom; the lacy white integument bits will float--pick those out. Strain the whole thing through a colander, put the juicy red fruity bits in a plastic container and keep it in the refrigerator.

Want me to explain how to eat mangos?

64 oz. of pomegranate juice for $5.50! Tasty enough to glug, but probably best taken a shotglass at a time for antioxidant & other health properties.

Ok fucking a guys get this – my mom in law moved into a place with a pomegranate tree and guess who's gonna get a couple BUCKETS of them? Us! Us. This is like getting a delivery of freaking gold. This weekend is for me & the poms.

Any wrong she has ever done is forgiven.

I've seen pom trees around the neighborhood but they've never been over-the-fence enough to make grabbing one not stealing (unlike this apricot tree a few blocks away that made me very happy several weeks ago).

people would always steal our pomegranates and avocados.

Lucky Abbott! The neighbor behind my place in AZ had one that hung over the shared fence (also: limes!). It's like eating jewels, all those red red seed pouches.

jealous over here!

One year in Idaho my neighbors peach tree sprouted some peaches, and it's so damn cold up there that peaches never, ever happened. It was amazing. I was thinking about stealing one until I ran into my neighbor and she said, "Did you see? My tree grew six peaches!" Good thing I hadn't stolen from the Count and gotten my ass handed to me!

I fucking love pomegranates also they are like autumn contained in a fruit

they're like "hey u guys, i'm just some summer fruit that was hiding in this old apple but i guess u found me lol"

Just eaten one, they are fucking great.

Pull out a section of the fruit and put it in your mouth then crush it slowly.

mmm

and

In Hinduism, one of Lord Ganesha's names is "Bijapuraphalasakta," which means "He who is fond of the many-seeded fruit (the pomegranate)."
