| | The name pomegranate comes from the Latin for “fruit of many seeds.” Because of its numerous seeds and its red color, the pomegranate has been linked with fertility since ancient times. | | | Snacking on pomegranate is laborious, as the edible seeds must be selected almost one by one to avoid the bitter-tasting membranes that house them. | | | One of the main characteristics that sets off the varieties is the different color of the pomegranate seeds, which can be scarlet, dark pink, or light red. |
