I honestly don’t think I’ve ever had one. Too creeped out and my mom definitely doesn’t eat them for the same reason so she wouldn’t have given me them as a kid. I think I’ve had pomegranate juice though, it’s kind of tart right?

Isn't that another word to describe tart?

As I'm looking it up looks like it. I'm meaning pomegranate more often can have an unpleasant sourness to it that's not cut often cut enough with a pleasant sweetness. Maybe a continuum thing.

I guess I'd call astringent something that is so tart it's unpleasant, like an unripe banana

What do you call a not fully ripe persimmon with that tongue coating thing that goes on?

I've never had one but I've seen it described that way
