I just eat the seeds too to be honest, it does get tiring though.

[Anonymous No.5143793]

Okay
Bitches don't know SHIT
First of all, chop your fucking pomegranate in half, around the equator of it.
Put a bowl down so you don't lose the seeds like some pussy motherfucker.
flex the pomegranate half till a few pop loose. Then take a spoon or your fist and pummel the hard skin until all the seeds fall out, scattering to the four winds - or possibly to the bowl that you so brilliantly put down beforehand.
BAM all the seeds out, no watery shit everywhere, and you can stop crying like a bitch.

As simple as this is, as long as it's not as easy as picking up and biting an apple, I'm sure they'll still complain

[Anonymous No.5143850]

>>5143793
That's WAAAY to much shit to do. The most amount I'll put in for a fruit is peeling an orange. What's worse is that by the time I'm done chewing, sucking, and spitting out half of the seeds I'm already tired of tasting the fruit. It's just not worth it.

Pomegranates are easy to open if you know a trick.
Cut or tear them in half or quarters, then soak them in cool water. Work the fruit loose from the skin under the water. The white nasties will float while the fruit sinks.

Fuck this method.

Quarter that thing right and you can just nibble off the seeds. Whichever ones drop on your plate can later be scooped up with a spoon. As long as you don't have parkinson's you won't even need to worry about rind.

they buy them because they are cheap. pink lady's are elder tier, but when they cost 3-4x as much, you better sure as shit like apples.

to contribute to the thread, i'm going to put forth two probably very unpopular opinions

>strawberry
the shit of it is, i like basically anything that claims to taste like them - jam, juice, candy, whatever - but whenever i get some of the actual fruits, they just taste sour and bitter, and all those damn little seeds get stuck in my teeth.

>watermelon
growing up in the south, it was always a source of personal shame that i never acquired a taste for this fruit. but it's shitty to me because, much like the orange slices we all endured at half time of our peewee soccer games, watermelons at the end of two-a-days in high school were always seen as some special reward - meaning i didn't get shit.

My nigha

[bookcook No.5146621]

It's so easy to do, though!

Take a knife and sink it an inch into the center of the protruding bud, straight down. Wiggle the blade back and forth a tiny bit. Tear that fucker in half along the cut over a bowl of water. Repeat with each half. Consider preparing more than one pomegranate, depending on your bowl's size.

Take your bowl of pomegranate quarters to the living room and peel them out into the water while watching some television. You have wet hands, so a book wouldn't do.

After the seeds are separated from the pith, throw the latter away. The seeds will have little rind bits in them, so rinse the seeds a few times with fresh water. Use a strainer so you won't lose any fruit to the sink drain.

Place the fruit in a nice bowl and consume a handful. Feel satisfaction as you place the rest in the fridge, ready for your salads and breakfast for the rest of the week. Life is pretty good.

I am trained in gorilla munch warfare and I’m the top chewer in the entire General Mills Armed Forces. You are nothing to me but just another part of a well balanced breakfast. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this breakfast table, mark my fucking words.

So many posters here doing it wrong.

Dragon fruit shouldn't be eaten white.
You should cut it and let it sit for 20 minutes at room temp it will go blood colour and the sugars get released as it oxidises.

Think of it like smoked salmon straight from the fridge it's bland but after 30 minutes at room temp the oils in the fish explode with fragrant flavour.
