You can recognize a pomegranate by its round shape, hard yellow and red colored outer skin, and by its unusual interior flesh that contains many small edible seeds. A semi-sweet pulp surrounds each of these interior seeds. The entire seed is consumed raw, though the watery, tasty aril is the desired part. This exotic fruit is gaining immense popularity in USA. The pomegranate juice can be very sweet or sour.
