When Emmy said to "beat the heck out of" the pomegranate, it made me realize that she's basically the Bob Ross of food! He always said to "beat the devil out of" his paintbrush. Both kind, calming, hilarious, and so talented!
I LOVE Bob Ross.
That’s a perfect descriptor!!!
The culinary Bob Ross... Wow, I would've never thought of a better way to describe Emmy!!
Never thought of this but such an accurate description!
👌💚
i think a lot about how this should be realistically called an unblended smoothie
I was looking for this comment 😂 😂 😂
💯💚
💯💚
“Deconstructed smoothie”
@@somrudy9495 bout to say this
I don't understand how a watery fruit salad got so much hype, but I love Emmy and her recipes are always fun to watch. Her commentary makes a watery fruit salad worthwhile ❤️
Same... over hyped fruit in water
👌💚
Right? Nature's cereal are cereal grains/grasses...This just whole fruit soup or watery salad as you said
That's just TikTok and other modern-day media for you. Take something, name it something pretentious and get easy clout and earn big bucks from idiots worshiping you and your massive brain.
@@chefykitty
I was also expecting granola, seeds, etc.
I understand why people are critical of tik tok being dumb. It’s completely deserved 😂 but friendly reminder that Emmy is not tik tok. She’s just testing something popular on the internet to keep food real. Honest with how it tastes but not hyping it the way other fast past influencers do. Let’s try and keep it wholesome like Emmy 🥰
It's not TikTok itself. Tiktok is an incredible platform that has some issues same as RUclips.
But the people on there can be scary dumb for sure. I've managed to avoid it on mine though.
It's a bowl of fruit... lol I think people are being critical of this one because... it's literally just a bowl of fruit...
Yeah, this is essentially "berries and coconut water". Calling it "nature's cereal" is overselling it by an unfair margin.
@@HyenaTeef Or "deconstructed vegan smoothie". lol
I thought there was gonna be seeds or granola or something added. There’s no milk it’s just fruit it’s so stupid. Emmy is flawless though
Love ya Emmy! some word origin info: the word "pomegranate" does come from French for the "pome" part meaning apple (via latin), but the "granate" comes from Latin via the word "granatum" meaning "having many seeds." The word "grenade" was so named due to it resembling a pomegranate, so it is a borrowed word from the French word, which evolved from the latin words "pome" (apple) and "granate or granatum" (having many seeds). i love words.
You should be a linguist if your not already it seams like something you would love
Love this comment, thanks for the info
Yes, exactly. It was the other way around... Grenades are named after pomegranates.
I love your love of words 🖤😂
👌💚
“Natures cereal” mmmm it’s fruit salad y’all. Cereal doesn’t need…holy-fying lmao. Enjoy ya fruit salad tho 💞
@@nickytonik and gross.
also the definition of cereal is a grain used for food so....oats are nature's cereal LOL
Ask the person who first called this a "cereal".
👍💚
It's more like Fruit Soup, technically XD
So.... basically a fruit salad or fruit cocktail. I'd honestly have no problem eating that but to call it "nature's cereal" is kind of pretentious - the kind of thing you do to convince your toddlers to eat their fruits and veggies. Or (stupid) rich people to spend $$$ on your restaurant's breakfast/brunch. 😁
I think the latter. Trying to use that type of moniker on kids tends to backfire hard. Just ask anyone raised with the whole "nature's candy" BS. It never worked. Oh well. At least the cereal comparison is somewhat more accurate.
Ya, i really dislike that there is this desire to name things incorrectly. Cereal means something. It does not mean bowl of something with liquid. What if someone took a bowl of meat and added gravy, is that meat cereal? No, cereal refers to the grain.
I agree hahah- especially considering coming by all these in the same place at the same time in nature seems questionable to me.
👌💚
It's 100% a rich "natural lifestyle influencer" thing
I feel like the people on the ticktocks that flip their shit over this are people who just never ate fruit before.... yeah, it's great, it's fruit.... it was always delicious.
But Emmy's hype is about to make me spend like $30 on off season berries.
Well in the summer this would be amazing to cool of with especially since all of these minus the pomegranate would be In season unfortunately pomegranate Is a fall to early winter Fruit
This probably wouldn't be as good tasting but during off season I wonder how well frozen berries would work. I might try it with frozen to see how it turns out
I dunno it seems like fresh fruit texture is essential for this recipe.
A lot of Americans don't eat fruit though. The only thing we have all that common where I live is apples, and it can get really expensive buying other fruits that have to get imported even from other states. Heck, if it gets people to eat more fruit, I'm all for it.
@@chapstick6555 Adding chia seeds and leaving out the coconut water is quite nice. Adding coconut water when your berries are already soggy doesn´t sound great.
Well, we in Indonesia have a similar dish called Sup Buah (Fruit Soup) which is made from variety of fruits like watermelons, cantaloupes, strawberries, blueberries, rambutans, etc and soaked into milk (You can use either whole milk, evaporated milk, or condensed milk with water. A lot of street vendors use condensed milk with water due to cutting the cost. Or if you're vegetarians or having lactose intolerance, you can substitute to soy milk, almond milk, etc.) That's my explanation in it......
that sounds delicious!
💯💚
I remember this when I visited in the 80's, It was the greatest breakfast for a warm climate, and the Rambutans!! Heaven!
thats sounds so amazing (way better than this)
Granted its called "Nature's cereal," I'm surprised they didn't use the coconut milk instead of coconut water. Just imagine your favorite regular cereal with water 😕
My ex used to add orange juice to his cereal when we didn't have milk.
@@dianethoroughman9541 I actually used water on Corn Flakes quite a few times growing up when we were out of milk. Add sugar, sliced bananas, bing. Ay, you do what you gotta do! It was ok, but no real substitute for the white stuff 🥛
I ate cookie crisps cereal with water once when I was younger (because we ran out of milk and my parents were asleep on that Saturday morning). It is NOT the same I do not recommend. It’s gross with water lol.
@@FireMadeFleshII So very true.
Coconut water is *not* plain like water.
The coconut water is pink because it contains an enzyme called "polyphenol oxidase" and it's famous for turning coconut water pink overtime!
Kind of like how potatoes turn pink
That sounds so cool! Does the polyphenol oxidase affect the taste as well?
The water is pink because of the pomegranate juice on the arils.
@@tessam1290 *kivrin engle* is correct. See 7:27.
Not all freshly harvested coconut water turns pink. It depends on the cultivar (variety) of coconut and also the age of the coconut. For those that do turn pink, when exposed to oxygen and/or heat, the enzyme _polyphenol oxidase_ (PPO) causes the coconut water to create black, brown or red color pigments. Mangos, apples and avocados also oxidize when their surface is exposed to oxygen. The resulting pink tint in fresh coconut water varies, depending on the variety of coconuts used to supply the coconut water-and how long it's been since the coconut was opened. It tends to happen in the coconut water from young coconuts (7-8 months old) more than older coconuts (9-10 months old). Therefore, if a particular variety of coconut had a low Polyphenol Oxidase level or the coconuts were older the water would not turn pink. Turning pink can *also* happen when exposed to heat during manufacturer processing.
Most store bought coconut water should naturally appear pink, due to the time it takes to transport the water from its source to your hands. If your coconut water isn’t fresh from a coconut and isn’t pink, the manufacturer may have added chemicals to remove the polyphenols from the product. This is why the pink color is an indication of the product’s purity.
My father used to go out every year to pick low bush blueberries in secret spots he knew of in town. We used to freeze some for use throughout the year, but we used to also put the fresh berries in a bowl, pour in milk and a sprinkle of sugar. Delicious!
Yummm
😈
That is my mother’s favourite way to have blueberries
berry milk is delightful!
I always do this with strawberries, basically turns into strawberry milk, amazing. Sometimes blueberries too, pretty much any berry works. My favorite way to consume berries.
Looks delicious, but it’s also like a medium-raw smoothie 😅
Yes! I‘m sure it‘s good, but the title „nature cereal“ is just 😬😂
I‘m glad I‘m not alone 😄
👌💚
Looks like an amazing fruit salad for sure. To be considered cereal, it has to consistent of some type of grain like wheat. Don't know why people hyped up some watery fruit lol
So basically it's a fruit salad with coconut water and ice.
Also, all cereal is nature's.
It depends on what kind of cereal you mean. Most American cereals are just processed sugar with artificial flavours and colouring
👌💚
you cannot tell me that cheerios are nature lmfao
@@chewy1203 I think they mean the ingredients used to make cereals. Like wheat, corn, sugar, etc.
Its...literally just fruit in a bowl with another fruit's juices poured over. And ice. I don't get the urge to rename fruit salad.
I think it's new bc it's been 'cerealized'. Most fruit salad isn't floating in juice.
@@badgeoshame389 Mine always have been. Don't you put dressing on your salad?
@@badgeoshame389 yeah, they do usually. Though, most commonly they're referred to as fruit cocktails if they have a liquid in them, fruit salad if its just the fruit.
👍💚
I went to buy the stuff to make this today and my total came out to 54$ so I got everything home and was pumped to try it. It WAS good like I have no complaints but at the same time I spent 50$ for a bowl of fruit so I couldn’t bring myself to enjoy it fully you know?
Wow fruit is expensive in ur country! I just added it all to a online basket at it was £13 and that was with bigger potions and from a supermarket!
@@insomniac598 well to be fair I did have to get multiples of some things because they didn’t come singular and the pomegranate seeds were prepackaged so I probably could have gotten it cheaper if I had tried more than one store.
Next time get frozen organic fruit and do the same thing. You'll get more for your money.
@@violetviolet888 it'll be sloppy, like she said you wouldn't get the crunch. Do Americans just pay more for fruit? Like I shop in a little farm shop and can spend £20 and get enough fruit and veg for 2 weeks for 2 people?!
@@insomniac598 Produce in general is more expensive than junk food here.
That's a major contributor to our obesity problem, and it's why obesity and wealth are _inversely_ correlated here.
As someone who's always on the look out for fruit at the supermarket, I did some math: 4$ expensive coconut water + 4$ pomegranate + 4$ (if you're lucky) blueberries + 4$ (if you're lucky) blackberries = one damn expensive snack. Love ya tho Emmy
I was thinking this too.
These are all my favorite fruits but they’re BEYOND expensive 😩
Well... it's not like you're gonna add all the coconut water at the same time for one bowl, same goes for the fruits. You just use a small quantity for your bowl! Yes it might be pricy for a snack but personally I eat bowls of fruits all the time by themselves and to add this extra coconut water might make a totally new experience!
Is fruit in the US really that expensive? Would be much cheaper here, even out of season.
@@Jhud69 I’m in Scandinavia personally, but over here, berries definitely are, yeah. Fruits like apples, oranges, and bananas are much cheaper.
@@Jhud69 where is here? Yes it’s expensive in the US. Hawaii is outrageous!!!!
I ate this all the time growing up. Minus the coconut water 🤢 but of course tiktokers pretended to invent everything, we just called it fruit salad 😆
The reason it’s called “natures cereal” is because of the coconuts water being used as the “milk”. Without it, yes it’s just fruit salad.
@@jinx2736 I get it. We used to put orange juice on ours occasionally. As we got older liquir 😆 even sugar and masserate and the fruits juice. Lol we never called it nature's cereal tho.
@@justhereforthevideos2798 yeah for sure! It’s not really the most accurate name for it but Ive just never seen so many people getting upset over watered down fruit salad. Some of these comments are ridiculous. 😅
@@jinx2736 I personally think a lot if people are over these 'content creators' thinking they invented the wheel.v worse is those who trot behind them in droves.
Like please for the love of God have an original idea. That's not been done in so long lol guaranteed to make u go viral 😆
@@justhereforthevideos2798 right. They definitely didn’t invent it but I also don’t see an issue with someone calling it whatever they wish to call it. It’s just food at the end of the day! 🥰
Silly me. Calling this a fruit bowl all these years. I could have been TikTok famous.
👍💚
I always just peel them with my fingers, its such a beautiful process, seeing the clusters, the individual seeds falling off... don't want to waste a single one by slicing the fruit in half... its a calming thing for me though.
I'm sure that's good but calling it cereal literally makes me think this is an eating disorder recipe
Exactly my thoughts
I got the same vibes from this, especially with the added ice. Its quite sad really :(
my only problem with this is the fact that its called cereal despite being composed of 50% water 50% fruit
You have to figure out who "started" this and ask them why they called it this.
👍💚
@@violetviolet888 To get lots of attention probably.
I think it's because it is crunchy, liquidy and sweet and cold like when you eat a bowl of cereal for breakfast. At least where I am, people use the word "cereal" to describe the end product that you buy and eat, not necessarily to describe any of the individual ingredients outside of the context of the morning meal.
I love watching the joy spread across your face with the first bite! So cute!
As someone with misophonia, I used to really appreciate how you didn't ever talk with food still in your mouth.
That's looks delicious, but also, it's like $8 worth of fruit and coconut water 😂 that's so extra
And, I believe that particular brand of coconut water is one of the most expensive, in my region
Use frozen ones. Buy organic.
@@violetviolet888 Yes to frozen no to organic.
@@allgirlreview433 Why no to organic?
Does that $8 make more than one serving?
Rice, bran and wheat tend to make me bloated, so I actually used to make a “natures cereal” using dried white mulberries, raisins and currants for the body of it, pomegranate seeds, fresh raspberries and blueberries to be scattered throughout and topped it with some sliced banana, shaved almonds, fresh cinnamon and a drizzle of honey. And I soaked mine in milk. It was sweet and almost kinda muesli like. Tasted good with yogurt too. Perhaps a bit more substantial than this one, but this one is great for something super cold and refreshing and light on a hot summers day.
Fresh cinnamon? Like, the barky, woody cinnamon? Sounds delicious though!
@@scarletmoon. I should have said ground cinnamon haha. But actually stirring a stick of cinnamon through would be lovely I'm sure!
It’s absolutely not cereal.
It’s fruit in ice water.
Granola is natures cereal; people need help.
How is Granola any more natural than cereal? It's usually packed with preservatives and cane syrup and sometimes high fructose corn syrup hardly natural unless you're making it yourself with unrefined oats, nuts and raw honey whose sourcing you can verify as completely unprocessed.
@@geno5360 can musli be “nature’s cereal” its literally just oats and some nuts or seed and dried fruits
Why are you so pressed over fruit and coconut water in a bowl and what people decide to name it. Get yourself some help.
@@jinx2736 because words have meanings and by definition cereal is a grain
@@jinx2736 Pressed? its facts, completely different nutritional content and benefits to one another.
Almost a year ago... March 2020... My perception of time is already skewed enough, Emmy 😭
😆Me too, apparently.
👍💚
Imagine putting the natural cereal in a blender with milk, would made a great smoothie
💯💚
Not my cup of tea, but I'm glad Emmy reviews these tiktok recipes. It saves me from looking at tiktok.
Seems like a wonderful summertime breakfast that I’m definitely going to try sometime. Very luxurious too, all of these fruits/berries are pretty expensive here in Sweden 😅
Buy frozen.
👌💚
Pick Swedish blueberries ("bilberries" in english) and wild raspberries in the forest when they are in season. You might even find blackberries wild depending on where in Sweden you live.
If you live in the north of Sweden, you might also add hjortron ("cloudberries") which should also give you added texture with their larger seeds, and a hint of honey to the flavour 👍🙂. I live in Stockholm myself, so no cloudberries for me 😔
I might even try to add some lingon to this, when I think of it.
Pomegranate and coconut water will definitely add to the cost though. Curious what the coconut water adds to this, I always thought coconut water was boring. I'm definitely going to try this though, based on Emmys reaction 🙂
@@ei96byod I don’t get the attraction of pomegranates.
@@ei96byod I live in central Gothenburg so it’s a bit of an excursion to go to the forest and pick berries lol, especially since I don’t have a car. Also I’m not the most outdoorsy person so I wouldn’t know where to even look 😅 I’ve never had Hjortron but I’d love to try them. I wonder why they aren’t sold in stores, I’m sure a lot of people here in the south would buy them if they were.
As someone with an anxiety disorder I just wanted to say I can’t help but appreciate how calm and positive your energy is in videos. I’ve been subscribed for years and you never fail to comfort me ❤️

Here in Lithuania (Europe) we eat similar "Nature's cereal", which is usually some type of seasonal berries (mostly strawberries, wild blueberries or cherries) with sugar and milk. Some people eat this with rye bread, which is more filling :) I eat my nature's cereal vegan - with almond milk and maple syrup. And it's the best summer food ever. Especially when the berry season begins.
A fruit salad with coconut water... okay...if this is how we get kids these days to eat fruit and veggies I'm for it.
a bunch of baloney, did you ever look into whether eating fruit and veggies actually has a positive impact? Look into how long Eskimo's lived on a meat only diet (70 years on average without modern medicine). Blue Whales live up to 90 years old and their diet consists almost exclusively of krill.
@@karllaur3866 I agree, we’re so conditioned to believe fruits and vegetable mean health. Not necessarily true at all.
@@karllaur3866 i cant believe youre comparing the lifespan of a blue whale to humans lmao
@@minjinkim16 Do you realise that rats are used in medicine to test most medications? Yes, I am comparing two mammals.
@@karllaur3866 yea rats are a great animal model. Tortoises are primarily herbivorous and can live over 100 years. I dont see the point of comparing distinctly different species with vastly different metabolic systems and concluding that since whales eat only krill therefor humans should eat only meat.
I mean i agree with you on the Eskimos, thats a valid discussion.
But what do i know about animals im only a veterinary science student.
On a hot summers day, it would be refreshing, but that would be the first course of MY breakfast. Would not sustain me at all until lunch.
💯💚
I’m not even hung up on tiktok renaming fruit salad as natures cereal, the way this comment section seems to be. It’s what kids do, make up some “cooler” name for what has been around forever. Rather what kind of concerns me is that they’re apparently eating so little fruit that trying some berries in (mostly tasteless) coconut water blew their minds..
I’ve been doing this with frozen berries for years . Trader Joe’s has really good deals on frozen berries especially blueberries and cherries, so I would get a bowl of them… frozen, and whatever other fruit was in season, add a splash of almond milk and top with raw old fashioned oats for crunch. Perfect breakfast and also gives you a little protein, calcium and vitamin d in the oats and almond milk to start your day off right
@Melokacool Aldi supremacy
👌💚
Emmy is the only RUclips creator that would make me enjoy watching a 15-minute video on fruit bowl water.
In what way, shape, or form is this considered cereal
When a tiktoker need views
Note on the name, the name pomegranate isn't because it looks like a grenade. It comes from Latin "granum", seeds. Literally, it is an "apple with many seeds". What you did there is an instance of "folk etymology" that is, interpreting the meaning of what you hear based on the referent of the word and your experience derived by logic. It is very common! 😊 happens a lot in language.
Great comment providing accurate info. Unlike Emmy to not do her research.
💯💚
This is just a another version or a foreign Fruit Salad of sort!!
The one I know is our locally known version of a Fruit Salad which is sweetened condensed Milk, Coconut Flakes, Nata De Coco (Coconut Gel), Sugar Palm fruit, chunks of Melon, and Pineapple (Basically a Fruit Cocktail) with Cherries, Green Grapes, Apple and Cheese (all optional)!!
Best served frozen and you're good to go, this one is more of a dessert breakfast cereal if you will!!
Yes fruit salad has been around for ages. But the youth arent allowed to think it's cool or good unless tiktok tells them to.
👌💚
Thank for sharing! Look delicious and aesthetically beautiful but let’s call it what it is. Fruit salad. Cereal is cereal. 😆 💕
👌💚
Cereal makes me think of oats, nuts, granola, corn flakes, etc.
I always think it's so funny they call this nature's cereal, but they use coconut water, not coconut *milk* (you know, for the "cereal").
And since when was grain not a part of nature lol
Agreed! I dont like coconut water at all but would try with coconut milk for sure! :)
👍💚
@@jawaela Touché. Haha
@@twonner2 I've grown to love coconut water, but I didn't always. Coconut milk definitely has a much smoother, milder flavor.
Thank you for being so descriptive! I appreciate your attention to small details so we can better understand your presentation. The fruits look so good!!!
💯💚
Growing up my dad would take a bunch of different kids of berries and put them in a bowl and pour half n half on it and that was my breakfast on many occasions
My diabetic brother loved to do this as a treat.
Lizzo puts mustard on apples and oreos... why the heck would you take her food advice?
1am breastfeeding my son and I live for these videos, thank you got everything you do! Always consistent, we appreciate you so much Emmy🙂
My pleasure, mama. 👏🏼
💙 I miss those days. Not the diapers though 😂
💯💚
Gosh Emmy you should also list this this as an ASMR video too, it's fun to listen to you crunch 😊♥️
👍💚
I think the easiest way of opening them is to cut and then break it apart in a bowl of water. We had a tree and would get like 100 in a week and that is how we opened them.
👌💚
Oh... lucky you!
@@pz4971 kinda they all ripen at the same time so you get 100 in one week but just for the one week s year lol
@@andrewthezeppo oh.. . That's kind of a bummer😄... do they freeze well?
@@pz4971 We usually just picked as many as we could and gave them to friends and co-workers. I would bring a whole brown paper grocery bag full and just put it in the break room. One year we did go all out and juiced dozens and dozens and made real grenadine and had a cocktail party and gave everybody tiny 2 oz bottles to take home. It took HOURS and HOURS to juice, strain and reduce it but real grenadine and not cherry flavored syrup is really good.
Geez, all you have to do is score the end that sticks out (that fuzzy thing) and pull the sides apart. Pomegranates want to split open on their own. If you do it in a bowl of water it will catch all the seeds, and you can loosen all of them into the water so there's no mess whatsoever.
Yes. Unlike Emmy to choose the less than most ideal way. But to make yours better, you don't even need water at all. Here is a video on it "The Best Way to Cut Open a Pomegranate | Mad Genius Tips | Food & Wine"
💯💚
Natures cereal? More like fruit soup!! 🍎 🥣
Growing up, I called any mix of berries "bumbleberry". Like, I would classify this is bumbleberry, and make things like coulis, yogurt, etc. Once, I made a bumbleberry pie, and called it such. An acquaintance who liked the pie asked me what it was called, and when I told them, they were like "Oh no, I don't think they sell bumbleberries where I live..." 💀💀
My cousin and I were playing outside once. Dad yelled to stay away from those yardberries. She didn't get what he meant butI knew that old Dad joke. Yardberries are produced by bunnies and are not to be eaten under any circumstances. 🤣
👌💚
It looks great but all the fruit in that bowl is really sour to me. Unfortunately I'd have to add a lot of sugar to be able to eat it.
Emmy is so soothing! Thanks for what you do, you make my anxiety a whole lot better despite the world's chaos. ❤️❤️
💯💚
Oh yay!!! No advertisement 😁❤️❤️❤️ love this.. Straight to the point, you're awesome Emmy. We love you and your videos you make for us to enjoy.
When I was growing up we ued to call this "a bowl of fruit" amazing how a bit of viral marketing can change the mundane suddenly in to a trend. over here in the UK it was mainly Apple, Berries, Orange juice. Coconut water just seems a really expensive step to add. but looks delicious and healthy.
I use the second method to open my pomegranates but I open mine in a bowl of water. I will have to try the 1st method, my kids will love it. We live in the Central Valley in CA USA and there are pomegranate orchards around us 😁
So many people are getting so worked up about the fact that it's a fruit salad and cereal is already from nature. Yes, we get it, but it's not like Emmy named the dish! She's only using the name that was given on tik tok by someone else.
👌💚
It helps for her engagement for people to leave comments, even if they’re discussing something she’s not responsible for. So, it benefits her channel.
Thinking this (and other fruit options), with the coconut water would make great popsicles.
I love when Emmy eats something yummy and then she does a little double take at the camera cause it’s so good😂😍
Lmao so cute!
Mam ....that's a fruit salad with ice. The internet is always on some bs 😩😄
Yeah, I didn’t understand this trend when it went viral…but I’m also someone who doesn’t like tart fruits or anything with seeds (it’s a texture thing - I’ve never been able to eat berries whole)…so it just looks like a bowl full of yuck to me. But I’m sure it’s super healthy.
The best way I found is in a bowl of clean cold water because any bad seeds and the skin all floats and only the good seeds sink
🔥💚
Only Emmy could ever make me crave a bowl of fruit and coconut water 😂🍓🫐🍑🥥
That coconut water brand tastes sweeter than the others too. It's also the only pink one I've seen too!
👌💚
Idk why they like calling things so dumbly now. That’s a delicious bowl of fruits. A bowl of fruits is more appetizing than “nature’s cereal” which does not makes sense and implies that it’s not healthy with all those added sugar.
I hate tiktok with all my heart.
🔥💚
I appreciate how Emmy shares unusual recipes to hacks with us. She’s the first to actually assess the taste, textures and appearances accurately and honestly.
She's certainly not the first. But she is good at it.
Fun fact: the pomegranate IS considered to be berry botanically speaking.
🔥💚
Love your videos! Btw, “granum” means seeds in Latin; however, I like your version better :-)
👌💚
They are called “arils” not “arials,” Emmy ☺️
Pomegranate seeds have a structure called sarcotesta which contain the juice- not true arils. Examples of a true aril would be a lychee! A little technical but an aril is a close structural analog (and more well known) to a sarcotesta
She said it with such confidence she had me doubting my own pronunciation enough to look it up. I realized I'd never heard anyone else say arils! I'm sure different dialects say it slightly differently but yeah not to the point that it sounds like "aerials" as in, the circus act.
@@Purelychem Technically, the term *arils* is the proper term for this object in the pomegranate despite your alternate definition. Neither of them is incorrect in context.
Hai emmy, i always watching your new video.. make me happy, thankyou 🥰
Emmy, please try eating different versions of Filipino fruit salads. Where I grow up sometimes, if there is any big events like birthdays, there are either macaroni salad or buko salad present (both are fruit salads but has different main ingredient and can be eaten with canned or fresh fruits). Personally, I really like my mother's version of fruit salad where you only need milk and some local fruits like banana, papaya, mango, etc. This is my favourite afternoon snack in summer because there are many local fruits grown fresh and ripe to be eaten immediately.
“Like a boring old person“. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 that was so funny. But that really does look good. I want to try that.
💯💚
Speaking of being a “strawberry girl”, when I was little my maternal grandparents had a U-Pick-Em strawberry field in addition to their other strawberry fields and I was the unofficial spokesperson. Toddler me would be up at the main stand with her curly pigtails and strawberry-stained face and shirt asking all the customers “Do you want to buy a bushel?!” 👧🏻🍓
I am honestly surprised I never developed an allergy to strawberries because I ate as many as I could get my little paws on!
Oh, what a cute little memory... That just made my day! 🥰 Thank you for sharing! Love all the way from Germany 🇩🇪 💕
Aww thank you, what a sweet comment! 🥰 Love all the way back to you from Tennessee!
💯💚
Seeing a new upload from you makes me so happy 😁
Another tip to easily open pomegranate that Emmy briefly mentioned: personally I don’t cut off the top, I just score along the outside ridges and break my open. Then, take a bowl of water filled about half way and submerge your section in thumbing at the seeds, and repeat. This takes away any big possibility of staining kitchen ware or counters, and cuts most of the tedious process of picking out the white flesh! Plus you can take a spoon, cup, or hand strainer and just scoop the white flesh off the top since the seeds sink to the bottom of the bowl as you thumb them off underwater! :)
This reminds me of Adventure Time, where the Snow Golem made cereal but it’s pears,acorns & nuts. Looks tasty.
You the real good friend 😁
Thank You is one of my all time favorite episodes.
You know ... maybe we could all learn a thing or two from those sandwiches.
@@ddmorgan3939 Its super cute, pure & wholesome.
@@randomrainbow4479 Adds Lobster soul.
@@octomar1815 that can be said about 99% of AT though 😁
When are we going to get that homemade miso video? Do you still have that machine that can make it?
🔥💚
This combo seems so refreshing! Definitely need to try it out
Thank you Emmy for all you do. Seeing you makes me happy.
The name means "many-seeded apple", not "apple grenade." Grenades derive their name from pomegranates.
As do garnets (probably).
„I‘m such a strawberry girl“ Reminds me of „I‘m a medium-rare girl“ 😂 greetings from kitchenhell. Great video Emmy, I was kind of skeptical at first but if even you say it‘s up to the Hype, I‘ll give it a try
💯💚
This one of these tiktok made me do it type recipes. Gonna have to try it.
I cant beleive i JUST FOUND your channel. You are so awesome!!!!

Um. It's called a bowl of fruit
yeh I was thinking this, it's just a bowl of fruit salad 😂
get rid of the pomengrates and it's just summer berries in general, I honestly don't think this was something to fuss over tbh
I LOVE EMMY been watching you for years. Sorry, I've seen a few of these tik tok vids. Where the newer genes finally figure out how to do something. That has been a thing long (ie decades) before it was ever a thing. Honestly, how do these people survive the day to day?
Love your content, absolutely wholesome. Would you mind showing us your oatmeal recipe?
💯💚
in Mauritius we do have fruit salads we eat as dessert after meals. we cut and cube multiple fruits and eat together after adding some sugar on top for a sweet version or some salt and vinegar for a salty version. cut wud cut apples, cucumbers, pineapples, semi-ripe mangoes and whatever fruits you happen to have around the house.
I would be prone to using actual coconut milk not coconut water. I’m not much of a fan of the water. I do recognize that she’s using other peoples recipes here but I would also add a tiny bit of Stevia too. I like sweet “cereal” 😊
I was thinking almond or cashew milk would be delicious for it.
I was expecting her to add her honey to it too, but yea it's great to customize how you see fit, no worries
👌💚
Agreed on coconut water being gross. It has a woody bitterness to me. Tastes like you're sucking a piece of bark.
@@tomevans3246 Right?! It’s just weird. It makes my mouth feel anesthetized. Kind of a warm, dulling, sensation. It’s hard to explain but it’s definitely gross. 😝
The “granate” in pomegranate comes from Latin. It means “having grains”. Which does make sense. The inside looks like red grains. A grenade also splitters into small grain-like pieces, hence the name.
I'd never heard of this and look forward to trying this! I bet it's really refreshing in the summer!
💯💚
I've found that the least messy way to open a pomegranate is to cut it in half and then submerge each half in water and turn them inside out. The water keeps your hands from getting stained, and the yellow/white part floats away.
Wonder if the people who say things like "nature's cereal" are aware that cereal is not inherently the sugary thing we eat for breakfast, but a type of grain that comes from nature... Health nuts are weird at times.
We love you Emmy!
Thank you!
i love subbing red grapes for the blackberries! adds yet another texture to the mix!
👍💚
Imagine making a video about something without feeling the need to put TikTok in front of it.
It’s basically either an unblended smoothie or a fruit salad.
Tik Tok might call that cereal, but I call it a fructose sugar bomb! My liver is scared LOL. Beware if you have T1D, T2D, pre-T2D, insulin resistance, or NAFLD! A few berries is great, but a bowlful is hard on your liver
Four ounces of sugar is four ounces of sugar wherever it comes from. That is why a few bits of fruit in a nice big oatmeal porridge is so scrumptious and nourishing compared to this sugar rush tooth killer.
Pomegranate is actually called ”granatäpple” in Swedish which literally means “grenade apple”
Never though of it before but now the “pomegranate” makes sense as well
Hey! I dunno if you've done this but you should show how easy it is to do melted brie with jam and crackers. I'd love to see your take on how you melt the feta!!
By definition this isn't a cereal but it's still good because who doesn't like fruit?
Right. Ask the person who first called this a "cereal".
