There are some in my yogurt. Weird. I've always chewed / sucked the "stuff" off them and then spit them out....



And I totally resisted the urge to be dirty on this post....

    This posting made me laugh..... but on a serious note I just never tried it because I didn't know what to do with it either! What a complicated fruit. Thanks for the post! ...and the immature giggles.

    I have always spit them out - wasnt sure if you were supposed to eat them.

    Lesson learned!

    LOL

    Well, I was going to title it "Do you swallow...." and then put "pomegranate seeds" on the inside. See? I used restraint.

    I am crunching and swallowing as we speak! Luckily, it's permissible for me to do this at work.

    That's it, I'm turning this car around.
  • haven't had a pomegranate since I was a kid but we used to spit them out but if it is in yogurt I would probably eat it.

    I had no idea people spit out the seed! I eat the whole thing. I love pomegranate. I loved them even more when I lived in India and someone else got all the fruit out for me. That's the part I hate!

    I've always spit them out in fresh ones when I was a kid. They were hard little thing!!! I've never had them in yogurt or in any other food so I don't know what I'd do or what condition they would be in. It's like spitting watermelon seeds, only smaller.

    Don't swallow the seeds! You'll get pomegranates growing in your stomach and intestines! Ever tried to pass a pomegranate? Not fun! ;)
