 pomegranates so pale as to be called white, but I don't know how 
 they compare to the red ones.
 
 Is there a fruit maven in the house?

Not a fruit maven but.....

On my trip to Wales, it seemed as if  even the tiniest grocewr had 
pomegranates. All of these popegranates were a very pale color with no red in 
the skin color at all. Being adventurous and never having seen these in my 
little part of America, I bought one. The flavor very sweet, totally unlike 
the red pomegranate which tends toward the  sourish side. I would say that 
these were definitely what could be called 'white' pomegranates.
