I was strolling through Loblaws and noticed a pomegranate machine that helps de-seed that beautiful (but annoying) fruit.
I took a photo and tweeted…”has anyone seen this machine? does it work?”.
To my surprise, a handful of people responded.
So guess who went running back to The Superstore in my neighborhood later that nite? ME.
I bought the pomegranate machine ($5.99) and two pomegranates and ran home to test it out. (I know I know, I have too much time on my hands).
I got home and followed the simple and easy instructions.
a) take off the crown and slice the pomegranate in half.
b) place the pomegranate on the plastic gizmo with holes (flat side down)
c) put the rubber dome on top.
How Simple!!
d) get a spoon and bang bang bang a few times
e) VOILA – pomegranate without the MESS.
OH HOW I LOVE Kitchen Gadgets.
So Good For You!!
Especially ones that cost $5.99 and WORK.
I went back to Loblaws to buy 5 more (I have a few foodie freinds..LOL) and sadly they didnt have it in that particular store. Will need to return to the store in my neighborhood to grab them before they are out of stock.
Happy Kitchen Gadgets!!

No way, I can’t wait to buy mine. Do you know how long I spend standing there taking out all of the seeds?! The other day I deseeded two, it must have taken 30 minutes!
Thanks for the tip.

Its like buying razors, you get the tool free, then you take out a mortgage every time you buy one 🙂
Seriously, cool giveaway.
Are they in Vancouver – seriously – I am desperate! I know a woman who really really wants one!
