Would You Rather? Pumpkin vs. Pomegranate Eick September 28, 2011 Would You Rather? 8 Comments It’s Wednesday, which means it’s Would You Rather time. Today seems like an odd match-up on the surface, but you know what? It ain’t. W’re pitting two fruits, both of which are in-season in the mid-fall, and both of which start with the letter “P.” Let’s see them do battle. Option #1: You can never eat pumpkin again. Option #2: You can never eat pomegranate again. Note that this applies to both fruits in ALL forms. No more pumpkin pie, seeds, pumpkin curry, pumpkin beer, whatever else you might put it in. For pomegranate, no more seeds, juice, molasses or anything else you may add it to. As always, you can use whatever criteria you think is relevant: cost, taste, availability, food choices etc. Share in the comments why you made the choice you did.

Pumpkin pie, pumpkin bread, pumpkin butter, the seeds, its like agreeing not to ever experience fall again. Reply mark September 28th, 2011 Pumpkin seeds are the only part I eat, and while I would miss them dearly I use pomegranate more often in cooking. Also I just discovered pinkberry and pomegranate frozen yoghurt is something I need to get to know more about Reply Hannah September 29th, 2011 I am not a fan of pumpkin at all. Also, most of what you taste in a pumpkin-flavored food is nutmeg + cinnamon. Reply Alexandra September 29th, 2011 Pumpkin Ice Cream!!!!! They only make it once a year…I’d trade every pomegranate in the world for a tub of pumpkin ice cream, or nutmeg and cinnamon ice cream for that matter. Now I wonder if there’s any pumpkin in pumpkin ice cream at all… Reply julia November 5th, 2011 I eat pumpkin plain. Easy choice. (Though I do love pomegranate) Reply Joyce January 30th, 2012 I LOVE pumpkin everything! But,… I just read where Pomegranate has calming and uplifting benefits for women experiencing the blues/blahs during menopause! Reply Echo710 April 10th, 2012 As much as I like pomegranate… life without pumpkin would be meaningless and bleak. Reply Traci July 24th, 2012 The only part of a pumpkin I ever eat is the seeds and I don’t always feel the need to eat them when they’re around. I could never EVER give up pomegranate though. It’s just too good. Reply Leave a ReplyYour email address will not be published.CommentName* Email* Website Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment.
