What to do with Pomegranate seeds?

Sort of an obscure topic, but what do you do with a bunch of Pomegranate seeds, anyway? Here's some ideas:
  • Eat them as a snack! The seeds won't kill you and although some may not like the crunchiness, you can eat them whole.
  • Put them on top of a piece of toast with some blackberry jam (my own invention, which inspired this post, yum!)
  • Squeeze the juice out of them. Probably the best approach for those who don't like the seeds!
  • Add them as a colorful and edible garnish to Fall platters such as with roasted root veggies.
  • Put them on top of some gelato or ice cream.
  • Put them as a side garnish to fruit salad.
If you have others to share, feel free to post them here!
