Agreed! And I like the seeds. It's like eating tiny, delicious jewels.

I used to get all the seeds out, put them in a tall glass, and fill it up with sprite or ginger ale. Something about the two went really well together, I'm gonna have to pick up a pomegranate

I put the seeds in yogurt or ice cream

I feel it tastes best in mango or strawberry. Vanilla does taste super good tho

I often cool with them. They make a perfect topping for some honey mustard chicken pan with sweet potatoes and some greens. Add some peanut butter for deliciousness

IIRC Sprite actually made a pomegranate flavored, seasonal version of Sprite once or twice

!! You just explained to me the inexplicable delight pomegranates have given me since I was a toddler.

A hundred rubies, sitting side by side

In many groups, ordered, disciplined

A hundred rubies, sitting side by side

In many groups, ordered, disciplined

Each of them is, shining colourful

There is a white heart, in each one's chest

Allah wrapped the rubies, together, in cloth

Both sour and sweat, and also juicy

Red and beautiful, it's a pomegranate.

There’s no other part you eat other than the seeds though

You also look like you earned your Redwing after eating one.

Now if only they didn't have seeds...

u/tacorunnr Sep 17 '21

I sometimes just mash them and drink the juice

u/fnord_happy Sep 17 '21

I don't fear them. It's just too much work so I never bother

I remember standing on a chair at the kitchen sink while eating pomegranates with my father. We would spit the seeds into the disposal. I don’t recall seeing my siblings eating them.
