just watch a video of a skilled person and it becomes pretty clear what the trick is
basically cut off the top and then cut it into 4ths along the pith and the seeds will fall away from the pith like it was meant to be
Also if you split it open in a big bowl of water, the tasty fruits separate really easily.
Life hack: do it under water
How do I keep from drowning?
Recruit some helpful mermaids to kiss some fresh air into you.
Yeah, it's one of those things where there really is an easier way, and it's not completely intuitive. We had a pomegranate tree at our last house and that method was life changing - it went from being ornamental to well consumed.
Any idea why the insides of the fruit from my tree are white?
Oh my god Ryan you can't just ask people why fruits are white

Yeah, they pretty much always are. They're seeds and the white part is the actual seed part. Sometimes the white part is bigger or smaller.
Right, the photos I see online have lots of red balls whereas mine are always white. There's no colour at all
Oh, you mean the translucent part is white, not the pithy thing in the middle. It's not completely ripe.
Ahhh that'll do it. Animals must eat them before they get a chance to ripen
