What it is

Pomegranate arils are the juicy, jewel-like seeds found inside a pomegranate fruit. "Organic" means they were grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. After harvesting, the arils are dried to extend shelf life and concentrate their flavor.

Why it's used

Dried pomegranate arils are used to add a chewy texture, tart-sweet flavor, and vibrant color to foods. They are often found in snack bars, cereals, trail mixes, and baked goods, providing a burst of fruity taste.

Health notes

Pomegranate arils are a source of fiber and antioxidants. They are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. International bodies like EFSA have evaluated pomegranate extracts, noting their antioxidant properties. Research suggests potential benefits from pomegranate's compounds, but more studies are needed to confirm effects at typical dietary intakes.

Allergen info

Pomegranate arils are not one of the nine FDA major allergens. They are also naturally gluten-free.
