As a little child my neighbor had a pomegranate and asked if I wanted to try some. Yes! He handed me a seed , which I tossed, not realizing that had the fruit around it. He laughed and explained it to me. I actually enjoy plucking the little ruby gems out as a treat. Corn on the cob is an absolute favorite but very messy! I have corn cob holders that are nice. As for aggravation though, I love popcorn but that can leave bits in the teeth! Ribs are yummy but messy to eat too. French dip sandwiches , ummmmm, but drippy!
