Notwithstanding their resemblance to a b(.)(.)b, I don't get this fruit.
Is there a trick to getting that sweet juice from the seed pockets without going crazy?

You eat the seeds whole, just crunch 'em up. Good fiber and whatnot

I, too, find them to be more trouble than they're worth, especially considering how expensive they are.
I did like finding baskets of free pomegranates in my neighbors front yards when I lived in California.

this seems reasonable. i always used the quarter method, but this way makes much more sense:

yes. but cutting it along its natural ridges makes much more sense considering that is indeed where it would naturally want to break apart. cutting it in to quarters, you will break open seeds and things get messy. next time i have a pomegranate, i'm going to try it this lady's way. i have high hopes for it. i should go raid the tree at my parents' place.
anyway, hope this helps you in your pomegranate eating adventures.

M'lady has a pomegranate tree at her parent's home nearby and we hauled off over thirty of the suckers at the final harvest (plus several more "as needed" over the prior month). If it weren't for the birds taking their share, we would have had three times that amount! It's a fruit for meticulous eaters. Just sit and pick at one for half an hour, kinda like a bowl of popcorn while you're watching a movie.

yeah, the tree at my parents is huge. the birds get a lot of them and the rabbits do as well. they fall into the pen and they end up looking like cannibals for weeks, their furry faces stained red. it's kinda cute.
