Smashing a pomegranate on New Year’s Day is an Ancient Greek custom that continues to this day as the red colored nutritious fruit is considered a symbol of life and good fortune. The pomegranate tree has been known and appreciated since the ancient times; it is mentioned in Homer’s Odyssey, as a tree grown on the island of Scheria or Phaeacia in the gardens of King Alcinous. Theophrastus, an ancient Greek philosopher and Hippocrates – known as the father of modern western medicine- refer to the pomegranate’s beneficial effects to our health.
