    Ah, that's how you spell it - thanks. Apparently the pips are the point of the pomegranate.

    That fat tongued vagrant Jamie Oliver slices them down the middle and gives them a tap - hey presto you've got all the pips out to eat.

    Yeah, sure Jamie.

    You actually end up covered in juice and flesh, with the majority of pips remaining in the bloody fruit for you to dig out painstakingly.
    They sell little punnets of pips in Sainsburys - MUCH easier

    I had a pink grapefruit every day last week with my brekkie. Messy but nice.

    No, I didn't add sugar. I'm still emotionally wounded from being ridiculed for putting sugar on melons. Apparently they are 'sweet enough'.

    I haven't had a pomegranate since I was a kid, apart from a faint recollection of having tried one more recently. All pips IIRC.

    Why do I care so much?

    I've partaken of the odd half grapefruit in my day, and its the mess element I don't like. I don't like faffy foods actually. Did you add sugar?

    I attempted a pomegranite (sp?) at my desk once. That ended messily.

So don't eat one when sitting next to your computer or anything that will be stained by acids. Best is to prepare it first in the kitchen IMO. I cut one in half and then run a knife all around the outside of one half and use a spoon to tease out most of it. Then I slice up what I have retrieved into parts small enough not to ejaculate all over any nearby furniture when eating.

    Full of all sorts apparently, including antioxidants. I bought two last week with the intention of having a half with breakfast, although it ended up that I ate a whole one in the evening, twice. Now I've bought two more. Exciting eh, I bet you're glad you asked. Did you hear Eric Olthwaite's got a new coal shovel? It's got a brass handle...
