Persephone
She ate six pomegranate seeds. That is why pomegranates are known as the fruit of the dead.
Persephone
Persephone did eat something in the Underworld. She was given pomegranate seeds to eat, which she did, thus binding her to the Underworld for half of the year.
She had to stay in the Underworld for six monthes of the year every time because she ate 6 pomegranate seeds. For each seed, she ate, she had to stay for a month.
Pomegranate seeds! YUM!! (well she technically didn't eat them, she sucked on them...)
Before she left Hades, Hades gave her three pomegranate seeds. when persephone left hades, she accidentally ate 7 pomegranate seeds.
Because she ate six pomegranate seeds.
She ate some pomegranate seeds from hades garden
Because the pomegranate was food from the Underworld, she had eaten this food and could not leave the Underworld (death).
Hades kidnapped her and she ate 6 pomegranate seeds in the Underworld which trapped her there.
A pomegranate typically has more seeds than a papaya
While in Hades she ate six seeds from a pomegranate, condemning her to live in the underworld for six months of the year. Eating in the underworld condemns one to stay there.Because she ate 7 or 8 pomegranate seeds (I think the number varies with each different version of the story)
