    I love pomegranates and just remarked to my husband this morning that I could hardly wait for them to be back in season. They are delicious and addictive. The ultimate snack food.

    Did I miss the Pomegranates recipe's?
  • LeanneChesser Dec 21, 2010 @ 10:02 am | delete
    Hmmm. That's strange. I just moved the recipes to the new recipe module yesterday and now they're missing. I'll file a bug report. Thanks for letting me know they aren't there!

    We juice pomegranate for my husband's prostate issues, but eating it raw just seemed to be too much of a hassle. I love your colorful lens!

    Pomegranates are so yummy! I just wish they were easier to "peel." :) Good lens!

    How do can you encourage kids to eat them?
  • LeanneChesser Oct 7, 2010 @ 7:03 am | delete
    My kids love pomegranates, so I'm not sure I have any good advice for you. I just gave it to them and they ate it :). You could try adding some pomegranate arils to some other fruit that they like (make a fruit salad type of thing) and introduce it that way.

    Just looking at the pictures has my mouth watering! Just beautiful colors!

    I've not tasted pomegranate yet! It looks delicious though. I will have to go hunting for some...

    It's great. I had pomegranate juice during my pregnancy - I read it helps the babe having a tiptop cardiovascular system.

    I hope my comment took...this lens is gorgeous...if it did...consider this a double compliment!
  • LeanneChesser Sep 11, 2010 @ 9:21 pm | delete
    It did - - thanks for the double compliment! And, yum, a pomegranate martini sounds great!
  • drifter0658 Sep 11, 2010 @ 9:17 pm | delete
    Pomegranate is a wonderful fruit. Just recently, I was turned onto a pomegranate Martini and I have to say that I loved it; even more than the chocotinis, and I am the world's largest chocoholic.

    The images on this lens are....well...tantalizing to say the least.
  • SereneSea Sep 11, 2010 @ 10:20 am | delete
    I take pomegranate regularly in my diet. I too am a vegetarian and due to its high content of iron , I recommend this fruit to all.
    Well done.

    Pomegranates are awesome...a little annoying to take apart, but in the end, worth it :D Great lens!

    I remember the first time my mother gave me a pomegranate - and a pin to spear the seeds. I was fascinated and it took me hours and hours to eat it. Hmm... maybe a god way to keep the kids occupied?

    Great lens. Blessed :-)

    Great information about the pomegranate! I bought and ate pomegranates for the first time this past winter, and it quickly became one of my favorite fruits.

    Pomegranate gives instant energy boost. Indian Pomegranates have also become popular among European consumers especially the 'bhagwa' variety.

    I love that the pomegranate is so good for us, but the thing I like best of it is the beautiful colour, which you have introduced so effectively into the theme here. Congratulations on the purple star! (Visited via Squidoo Lens Reviews)

    I love pomegranite in my fruit salad and I love pomegranate juice. Sadly it won't fruit here in England, but I love to pick it fresh from the garden when I am in Southern France, where it grows without a care. Your lens is mouth watering.

    We have three pomegranate trees in our front yard. It's fun to watch them cycle from flowers to ripened fruit. They really are works of art. Squid Angel Blessed.

    I drink pomegranate cranberry juice all the time. I bought an actual pomegranate once, but it was fairly hard to get out all of the seeds/pulp to eat. It was really good, but I would've been there all day. Interesting, nice work, Squid Angel blessed!

    Now that's what you call a quality lens - excellent. I haven't had a pomegranate for many years and look what I've been missing.

    Superb lens! A neighbor of ours had a tree right next to the back of their house in a little out-of-the-way spot. We'd sit in the shade and eat theses little treasures. Very good memory, there. Thank you! I appreciate this great resource all about pomegranates.
  • Bradshaw Apr 24, 2009 @ 4:10 pm | delete
    I luv pomegranite juice! Just about any fruit is good (and good for you), but I'm a late convert to the benefits of the pomegranite. They always seemed so exotic, but I finally worked up the gumption to try some and yum, yum, yum. Mouth-watering aroma and a tasty treat.
  • juliezowaski Apr 22, 2009 @ 7:55 am | delete
    I didn't realize there was so much to learn about a pomegranate. Nice lens. Very imformative. Thanks for the critique of my lens. Julie

    Holy cow, this really IS all (meaning, ALL) about pomegranates! And what a great looking lens, too. Fantastic job. I've never tried pomegranate ... I don't think ... but now I sure would like to.

    I love pomegranates, and pomegranate juice - so I absolutely love this lens as well. I had no idea that pomegranantes could be so interesting. I also like that you have passed on the health benefits about this wonderful fruit. Most people still don't get it - when their Dr. says eat more fruits & veggies, it really will make such a big difference in their health. I love all of your great pictures too. 5*ing, faving & lensrolling - I think this lens will be a nice compliment to my own.

    Thanks for stopping by to say hi, and for your help.
  • RunwayModels Apr 19, 2009 @ 10:09 am | delete
    Wow! I doubt there is a better resource for pomegranate information anywhere on the internet!

    You nailed it with this lens Leanne! I gleaned so much about this amazing fruit in the time it took me to read through this wonderfully created lens!

    Cheers to you!

    My sister JUST taught me the trick about putting the pomegranate in water to release the seeds without the mess. I'd avoided pomegranates for so long before that but that trick makes all the difference. They're allowed back in my house again. :) Nice job on this lens.
  • dc64 Mar 2, 2009 @ 8:25 pm | delete
    I've never had a pomegranite before, or its juice. I love fruit, so maybe I should live a little and try one.
