I Love Pomegranates

They're just so odd-looking, with their apple-like exterior, tough rind, and all those hundreds of ruby seeds, like juice-filled gemstones hidden inside. They also taste good, sweet and tart and a little like cranberries without the bitterness, and they're even tactilely pleasing; popping out the seeds takes just enough effort to be a game, and their juicy-crunchy texture is not quite like anything else. The fruit plays a key role in Greek mythology, and is even thought by some to have been the original Forbidden Fruit (definitely worth losing your soul for, in either case). They're filled with antioxidants and vitamins, and you can make wine out of them. Really, what more could you ask for?
