Pomegranate Fun



We are indeed very "sua-ku", most of the boys here grew their own pomegranates back in Singapore and here we are never eaten one before. Hence when we saw a truckload of pomegranates at Walmart, we bought one to try, they also provide a "how to cut" brochure with it. It is sweet and juicy, it takes a long time to eat all, I choose to eat one by one while Kenny ate 1 handful at a time. I find it harder to spit out the seeds that way though. I attached a link on how to open a pomegranate and also recipes. Enjoy!

NO NEED FOR A SPIT TAKE
Many of our California Wonderful Pomegranate fans have asked the age old question: Do you eat the seed inside or spit it out after enjoying the juice? Well, the truth of the matter is, it’s a personal choice. But keep in mind that most of the fiber you get from eating pomegranates comes from that little seed. So to keep up with a healthy dose of daily fiber, crunch on!

Haha we also had our very first pomegranate here last year. It was our last. We thought the seeds were inedible (they were pretty big!), and it was simply too leychey to spit out the seeds one by one. So we just tried to squeeze out whatever juice we could from the poor fruit and threw away the remains.

I love pomagranates!! I eat the seeds, but after 4 mouthfuls it becomes too much of an effort to keep chewing and the seeds start tasting like almonds!
