How do you eat a pomegranate?

do you eat all the stuff inside or do you eat the stuff off the seeds and then spit them out? this question need to be answered!!

How do you eat a pomegranate?
the seeds are edible


theyre kinda crunchy, but if you dont like that, spit them out


its kinda like a reverse fruit
Reply:After opening the pomegranate by scoring it with a knife and breaking it open, the arils (seed casings) are separated from the skin (peel) and internal white supporting structures (pith and carpellary membrane). Separating the red arils can be simplified by performing this task in a bowl of water, whereby the arils will sink and the white structures will float to the top. The entire seed is consumed raw, though the fleshy outer portion of the seed is the part that is desired. The taste differs depending on the variety of pomegranate and its state of ripeness. It can be very sweet or it can be very sour or tangy, but most fruits lie somewhere in between, which is the characteristic taste, laced with notes of its tannin.
Reply:I peel it back and eat the entire seed, juice and small pit. My husband chews until he has a mouth full of seeds and spits the seeds out. I don%26#039;t think the seed taste like anything and they are so small you hardly could call them seeds. I don%26#039;t know the answer to %26quot;what is correct%26quot;, of course I think my way is...
Reply:Contrary to two of the other answers, yes, you eat the seeds. You do not need to spit them out, and I have never known anyone to do so. And I%26#039;ve eaten a lot of pomegranates in my day.
Reply:cut it in half and suck the juice from the little red seeds, but don%26#039;t eat the little seeds in side.


nothing happens if you do though!!!
Reply:I eat the stuff off the seeds and then spit them out. Be careful with the juice because it stains.
Reply:Being Funny take no offence





Step 1: Wash out side of fruit and cut it in half


Step 2: Take all seeds out that are covered in red


Step 3: Start popping those seed in your mouth and suking off the red and spit out the seeds








Throw away the rest


:D
Reply:you just get the juice from the seeds. i don%26#039;t think you eat the insides. don%26#039;t eat the seeds either! haha
Reply:I peel them and then eat the whole seed.
Reply:You have to cut the pomegrante and eat drink the juice from the seeds and you can chew the seeds but make sure not to choke on them or eat the seeds. You do have to spit them out though sometimes because they can get too tough and they taste kind of nasty . Just don%26#039;t eat the peel it%26#039;s like the rind of the orange or the peel of a banana that you just don%26#039;t want to eat.
Reply:you eat the seeds
Reply:I think taht you should just chew the seeds and suck off the pulp. I hate to say say it but i dont think that they taste good enough to be worth the effort.
Reply:well u can peel off the skin and eat the seeds only. dont eat that other stuff.
Reply:it is all up to you!
Reply:you break it open (they%26#039;re ripest when they%26#039;re breaking open)


and chew the seeds. you CAN swallow the seeds, but, you don%26#039;t have to.
Reply:Ewww!


I hate the seeds cos, to me, they taste kinda bitter.


But, the pink flesh is niiice.

Yeh, all you do is rip the pomegranate open and eat the little balls in there.

My parents are drinking pomegranate juice for it's health benefits. How much should they drink in one day?

Pomegrantes are excellent. Drinking a glass or two should be fine. It%26#039;s very high in antioxidants. All dark colored or deep berries are excellent in containing antioxidants, not just pomegranates. They are popular in the MidEast like in Israel and Egypt, way back from the biblical days.

How do you eat pomegranate fruit?
cut it into quarters, pull out the seeds, and suck the juices off of them. the seeds are surrounded by a small sack of juice. The juice is the only part thats edible.
Reply:You eat the seed and yes its very delicious and sweet!!
Reply:Peel off outer skin, pull out little %26quot;seed%26quot;. Pop them in your mouth and then spit out the pits. Time consuming but delicious!





I%26#039;m sure there are cooked methods but that%26#039;s how I eat them fresh.
Reply:You eat just the seeds. They take forever to get out of the fruit itself, but it%26#039;s so worth it.
Reply:break it with an axe and then fix it with fevicol.didn%26#039;t your mom tell you?????????????????????????????????
Reply:no idea
Reply:eat the little bit of fruit around the seed...be careful it will stain your fingers and wont come out of clothes!!!!
Reply:You eat the seeds inside the fruit.
Reply:VERY CAREFULLY
Reply:You break it up into a few pieces, then eat the small red little fruits inside. Pick away the white pithy stuff, to get to it, and spit out the seeds. It%26#039;s a lot of work, but it tastes great. Oh, and it stains like crazy, so be careful!
Reply:one great way to do it, is to find one with no holes on punctures on the fruit. Stand over the sink and gently squeeze it (juicing it inside the fruit) once you%26#039;ve got it all soft poke a hole and suck the juice..... it is awesome..........
Reply:cut it open and eat the lil corn kernel seeds
Reply:Eat the seeds.
Reply:They are good but a pain in the butt..





Crack them open and eat the little balls, then spit out the seed.





It is a ton of work just for a little fruit :)
Reply:peel the fruit and eat the seeds inside. Some people eat the whole kernel, including the seed, others spit them out. There are membrane layers in the fruit that are light yellow to the best of my recollection that you also peel away and find more kernels. As kids we always used toothpicks to pick the kernels out. It was a fun but time consuming activity.
Reply:cut it open and eat the little red seeds that are inside.
Reply:Open it up and pick on seed at a time.

Just want to know: pomegranate juice vs mangosteen juice. which is better?

Depends on you taste buds dude.

Just want to know: pomegranate juice vs mangosteen juice. which is better?
Mangosteen and Noni juices are the best! These two juices detoxify the body of toxins as well as supply super nutrition directly into the cells. It may be more expensive than pomegranate juice, but the health benefits of mangosteen juice outweigh the cost tenfold!!
Reply:I would drink both.
Reply:I%26#039;ve NEVER heard of mangosteen juice, but pomegranate juice - yea. Nutritionally better? I can%26#039;t be too sure tho, I personally love these 2 fruits
Reply:Mangosteen for sure! Check out www,mangosteenmd.com. It is a website run by two Doctors that are the for most experts on the health benefits of the Mangosteen. In order to get the whole fruit puree of the Mangosteen your only option is Xango. You can order it through www.mymangosteen.com/esowell

Is the drink Rockstar Pomegranate bad for you health??

I want to know because I am going on a diet and I love it way to much !!

Is the drink Rockstar Pomegranate bad for you health??
Yes, it is bad for your health. Way too much sugar that may ruin your diet, preventing you from losing weight. Rockstar Pom probably has only 1/2 a teaspoon of Pom Juice in it.


Can you pronounce all the ingredients in it?

Reply:It as not as good for you as eating a pomegranate.

I know it%26#039;s tacky to copy and paste from wikipedia...but this is something I recently learned. This may make getting the seeds out real easy, I haven%26#039;t tried it yet. Let me know if you do, I%26#039;d be curious to find out
Reply:cut it in half, hold a hlaf over an oepn bowl, whack it with a wooden spoon and the seeds will drop into the bowl
Reply:like ameena said, you are supposed to eat the flesh around the seeds. However, you might want to squeeze out the juice first. the juice is the main part of a pomegranate you want. make sure you have a good filter for the juice though. some of the pieces you don%26#039;t want to eat get into the juice.





did you know that grenades were named after pomegranates?
Reply:Cut off the %26quot;crown%26quot; and then soak it in water for 15-30 minutes. It%26#039;ll separate. Then eat the seeds. :)
Reply:People are weird in their ways.


Just use your fingers to rip and peel it open.


Eat the seeds that are inside.


That%26#039;s it.





Sure, washing the outside first is a good idea because who knows where it%26#039;s been on it%26#039;s journey.





One of my best friends used to do this:


sit in the hallway at school and meticulously take out every seed and put them on his shirt. 1/2 hour later, he%26#039;d have every single one removed, put them all into his mouth at once and %26quot;Mmmuummmummummmyummyummmummm...%26quot; chew it all up.
Reply:Buy a bottle of pemergranate juice , open it and drink it. They have some 100%, NOT from concentrate and it is good.
Reply:cut it under water, then it doesnt squirt

Can i grow a pomegranate tree in louisville, ky?

i wanted to see if its possible, if so...what are the months i can start growing them and do i use the little seeds inside them?

Can i grow a pomegranate tree in louisville, ky?
Check with a local nursery but I doubt that the pomegranate tree could survive the winters in Kentucky.
Reply:Your hardiness zone should be 6b


It is my understanding that they will grow in zone 6a/b but will not produce fruit. That they produce fruit best in zones 8 to 11. Dwarf container grown produces good fruit in the colder zones.


I live in zone 6a MO. Would love to give it a try.


My theory, you won%26#039;t know until you try it. So why not try.


Good Luck! Yum Yum!
