Crab vs. Pomagranate

I’ve always despised food that required more work than what it was worth. Crab legs, bbq ribs, shrimp in the shell; it’s all delicious and practical in theory, but is it really worth the struggle? Sunflower seeds walk a thin line but get a free pass due to the fact that it is more of a male competitive event to see how many seeds you can put in your mouth at one time and separate with your teeth and tongue without using your fingers.

Tonight I found myself eating the juicy seeds of a pomegranate and enjoying every finger-staining minute that it took to get through just half of the fruit. For some reason, picking the seeds from the pomagranate felt therapeutic.

    Nice graphic. I’m glad we found a hot deal on poms. Did you eat all of the seed when you ate it this time?

    Jesus… you are are a rampage with the blogs now… its a good thing because i was getting a little worried. Anyways, just thought i would share that my dad is exactly the same way.. and he wont eat crab unless it has already been taken out the shell for him. I called him a lazy ass for that and i guess you can jump in that same boat. And while we are on the topic… I have never had a pomagranate before. Am i missing something spectacular?

    You have 2 votes to keep your blog. It’s not looking good… kind of like when we would be the only one’s listening to ourself on SCEPH.

    In response to your latest poll…
    what a silly question! It almost made me sad to see that as your poll. I voted YES. I wanted you to make another answer option, “Are you kidding me? Of course!”

    Dude, new post please. I voted YES on the poll, finally – I didn’t even realize it was there. This must be the seventh time I’ve read the Crab vs. Pom post. I need more updates on the life and happenings of Todd Du.
