I always feel like pomegranates take so much effort to cut and prep that it isnt worth it unless you just buy the seeds :s

I agree Gina. I also never feel satisfied with them.. i'd much rather use the calories on something else...

I kinda feel the same per calories.

Though, sometimes something that offers huge health benefits is worth the calories and effort...just a thought.

yeah, thanks for the advice! :)

Of course PD....I just think pomegranates are too much effort really and i dont enjoy them so much!!!

i love pomegrantes they are so delicious and sweet and tart. i peel 2 at a time and eat them over 2 or 3 days to make it easier,

There are lots of good healthy fruits and vegetables out there with great health benefits, so if you don't like Pomegranates, then definitely don't go there...so many more yummy fruits available. My weakness is grapes ;-)

Grapes are mine too. I always freeze mine and then eat them. Its like having a popsicle or something. And then i end up eating them slower and therefore dont eat as much.

That's such a great idea Aspire, love it! I will definitely have to try freezing them. Yummy!

Frozen grapes are great, especially when you have a headache. It is like freezing the inside of you head. Aaaah.
