Pomegranate - candy of the gods.

I remember pomegranates being very expensive in the US, to the point that they were a "once a year on Thanksgiving" kind of thing for my family. But that was in rural Kansas - maybe they aren't so expensive in cities with more fresh fruit import infrastructure.

Now that I am living in Thailand, they are cheap and readily available. And interestingly enough, the flesh around the seeds is clear or possibly with a very slight red/pink hue -- but not at all like the deep red they were in the US version.

So, here I've gotten into the habit of just ripping the fruit open with my bear hands and eating handfuls -- no staining issues. But, this will video definitely come in handy if I want to be a little more dignified when cracking one open. Thais call the deep red version "Indian Pomegranate" (translated), so maybe the US sources most of their imports from there.

Just in time! I have some pomegranates and I always fail cutting them open...

Fuck. I just tried the boiling hot water trick and it did not work. I just ended up burning myself. I think I'll sue her for 2.7 million!

I think she meant take your clothes off before pouring boiling water on them.

YOU'RE NOT THE BOSS OF ME!

Is it just me, or does her face look like Arnold Schwarzenegger to anyone else?

I can definitely see where you're coming from on a second viewing.

Just cut them in half and spank the seeds out into a bowl by hitting the back with a wooden spoon. You chop a few seeds, but you can still eat the cut seeds just as well as the whole ones, and it's much quicker than this!
