Antioxidant Fabulosity

Sure I know Pomegranate juice is in vogue. And, it certainly is a great mixer with champagne, and Grey Goose, need I go on with that line of thought… However, what gets me even more excited when I contemplate all things Pom is Pomegranate seeds. These little ruby red yum yums are just so tasty and texture-y, and juicy and healthy even.
I remember one Christmas season many moons ago in the newsroom of my first TV news job. I was working with my friend Mary Jo who was the weekend anchor and she was eating the seeds out of a Pomegranate. She offered me some, and I was so taken that I also remember at one point she was like, ” Um okay that’s enough Amy….” Suffice to say I’ve had quite an affinity for these scarlet berries ever since. The problem is they are a whole bunch of work to dig out of the actual Pomegranate. That is until now. YES – Trader Joe’s has come to the rescue of Pomegranate afficianados everywhere because for under $4.00 you can purchase a box of them straight up with not Pomegranate digging issues – NONE AT ALL! Sometimes – I just dig into the box with a spoon and eat the entire thing. Talk about no guilt luxury. Does it get any better than this? XXo, Amy
