Pomegranates

Terence and I have been kind of obsessed with pomegranates lately.  We bought the seeds from Costco the other day that are already cleaned and ready to eat and they were gone in a day.  So today I went to QFC on my way to work to see if they had any.  They were on sale 2 for 5 so I bought some.  These are HUGE pomegranates at least the size of a softball if not bigger.  My sister and I have a theory that maybe if it takes you longer to eat something you won't eat as much.  We figure pomegranates fall into this category since they take so long to get the seeds out.  I had one for lunch today and we were right, it took me a long time to eat it.  I think we are on to something, the pomegranate diet.  I did find an issue with them though, I think I am slightly allergic to them.  Since I have never eaten them in any kind of large quantity before I have never noticed it but today my nose, mouth and finger tips were all very itchy afterwards.  Weird I know.  Who's allergic to pomegranates?  Anyway it won't stop me from eating them and I am glad I have found a new snack that both Terence and I like that is healthy.
