what i learned on iron chef america: spanking a pomegranate
by watching iron chef america, i learned a great way to get out the pomegranate seeds:
1) cut the pomegranate in half.
2) hold the pomegranate, cut-side down, over a bowl. take a heavy spoon (i prefer wooden), hit the uncut side of the pomegranate.
the seeds just fall out. it can get kinda messy b/c some of the juices will start splattering, so just be mindful (especially since it tends to stain). i think that this makes it a little bit easier to eat the pomegranate.
as a side note, i really like iron chef america and watching the chefs cook. it's probably the closest i'll get to a fancy 5 course meal with some sort of deconstructed salad. ;)

You know what the best part about the Food Network is? If you are a student in the Food Science and Human Nutrition you can almost justify watching it as homework. I love my department!
man, you're so lucky. my department isn't quite so exciting with it's homework. i did hear alton brown talk about how cool food science is on tv. :)
