Recently I’ve been seeing a lot of bloggers eating pomegranate seeds.  I’ve been wanting to endeavour them as well as today I did!  I cut open a pomegranate as well as removed the seeds, which was a ton of fun!
I didn’t take any pictures when I cut the pomegranate open, but here’s a link to what it looks like inside with all of the seeds:

And here's a helpful link on how to get the seeds out:

I was so pleased to discover how numerous seeds the pomegranate contained!  Here is a pic of a pomegranate, it’s about the size of the one I cut up, contigous to how numerous seeds I got!  Basically, the whole pomegranate was filled with seeds, and they shall fill up a container that is about the same size.

 Another picture, this time just of the container of pomegranate seeds.

Sorry that picture was a little blurry!
And here’s another picture of the seeds!  Aren’t they pretty!  I love the vibrant color!  They look like pretty little jewels!

I ate a couple of pomegranate seeds while I was placing them in the container.  They taste pretty good - a little bit tart, but not as tart as I had expected - it actually had a lovely bit of sweetness to it.  I can’t wait to add them to salads as well as other dishes!
