I like eating pomegranates but spitting out the seeds is really annoying because they're so small. Someone recently told me that it's okay to chew and eat them but my sister insists that it's bad for my digestive system or something.

No; it's totally okay. The reddish part is full of vitamins and the seeds are extra fiber. Myself as well as anyone I can remember has always eaten the seeds, so you're fine!

The california pomegrante board recommends that you eat the arils (that's what the little red blobs are), seeds and all. Happy crunching!

if you really find spitting out the seeds such a big problem,you are fine chewing & swallowing them,no harm done.

the seeds are fine to eat, unless of course you are a Greek goddess trying to avoid the underworld.....

Stay away from pomegranites. Don't you know for every one you eat will you spend a year trapped in Hades?

Well, i'm not sure you'll enjoy eating them, I know I don't, but it's not harmful to your health.
