Whats with pomegranate everywhere in abundance in Poland now?

I went to canada last month and in states also, now I see in Poland also,pomogranate is in abundance everywhere in supermarkets costing 2 for 3$ in states and almost 5 pln in Poland.I remember once cpl years back I had an urge for it and was so hard to fund it which in states I did and was around 5 $.Today I saw in Macro for 4.99 pln.

Season for this fruit is from September to February, so it is still going. It's winter, our domestic fruits are not as accessible as before (maybe besides apples). So it's time for exotic fruits - like pomegranates, lychees and kakis.

Merged: Pomegranate

Hi. Why Polish consumers doesnt prefer buying pomegranate products (fruit, juice, etc) oftenly comparing other fruits ? I think pomegranate available in Plish markets are not the best quality as its origin countries.

Maybe it's expensive

I only drink it when I get sore throat. And eating it? it's just too messy.

Pomegranate is well know for its health values (very strong anti oxydant, against cancer)
