Aside from just eating the seeds, I have no idea what to do with them. I've had unbelievable pomegranite sauces and things at restaurants, but have never cooked with it. I think you can go to foodtv.com and do an ingredient search, that might be a fun way to find something new.

Lunch time. I'm starving. I'm having sushi today. I'm hoping the anti-oxidant properties in the fish will help. I'm like a big water balloon.

Tomorrow my work has their annual fundraiser and I have volunteered myself to be the pie-eater of my department for the pie eating contest.  Any hints on how to win.  It's pumpkin pie by the way.  Here is what I found on the internet.

How to Win a Pie Eating Contest

by eHow Food & Drink Editor

Introduction

Pie-eating contests go hand-in-hand with summer festivals celebrating fun and food. Though many contests winners may boast secret tactics that helped them take first prize, there are some tips that can help you get closer to the crown when hoping to win a pie eating contest.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Challenging

Steps

1

Step One

Go in on an empty stomach. Start the contest off right with a big appetite, and lots of room to store all the pie you'll be consuming. Hunger may help motivate you and increase the speed at which you can eat the pies, and leaving plenty of room in your stomach may help you squeeze in that extra few required to claim first prize.
2

Step Two

Keep your plate secured to the table. If rules permit, attach your pie-eating plate to the table using velcro or other adhesive. Pie-eating contests are messy, and precious seconds can be lost when a slippery plate gets away from you.
3

Step Three

Tie your hands behind your back. It's easy to get disqualified in the midst of the action, bringing your hands forward instinctively. This can be the end of the contest for you, so make it easier on yourself not to break that rule. Keeping them tied will be a sure way not to make a mistake when it comes to using your hands. Feeling them securely tied may also make it easier for you to focus on the challenge of eating without them.
4

Step Four

Stick your face right down into the pie as soon as the contest begins. You have to get down and dirty to win! Stick out your tongue and use it to pull the pieces of the pie into your mouth. Repeat this method as you begin to clean each pie plate.
5

Step Five

Continue eating the pie by turning your head side-to-side, rather than pulling your head away and going back and forth into the pie plate. Eat as much as you can, remembering to breathe, chew and swallow!
6

Step Six

Eat as much crust as you can after clearing out the inner contents of each pie pan. Judges will look to see that as much of the pie was eaten as possible. Even if there are some remnants left in your pie tin, it will look more eaten with pieces of crust missing.

Good LUCK!!!!!!!!!  Is it a speed contest or a quantity contest?

If speed your post suggestions look pretty good.  If quantity I always see the hot dog guys take sips of water between dogs/and or bites, guessing it helps wash it down faster or sumthin.

So, I started my first thread and its in the michigan forum (I live in Indiana but just over the border) to find out what races the michigan folk really liked cuz thats prob where my first tri will be.  Nobody is responding 24 views but no posts.  I'm thinking it could be a couple different things

  1. I comited a cardinal sin by posting in their forum
  2. Michiganders don't like hoosiers
  3. They just don't like me
  4. I'm being impatient (go drink a pomagranite martini and check back later)
  5. Found several grammer/sp errors and they don't like that
  6. There are no good tri's in Michigan (find that one hard to believe)

What do you all think?
