Apple Grenades?

I was talking with a friend of mine about farming the other day. She is French Canadian, and her English is really good (though sometimes I have a little trouble with her accent). We were talking about different fruits and she mentioned what sounded like apple grenades. I just returned a blank stare. She said "those fruits with lots of little red pieces that you eat." Aha. Pomegranates. But for those of you who speak French, you might see the word pomme, which is apple. I'll never be able to look at pomegranate the same again.
