If one eats fruit pits that are bitter and inedible, one does not make a Bracha when eating them.
If one improved bitter pits by roasting them (or otherwise), one says the Bracha of "Shehakol".
If one eats fruit pits that are naturally edible, one says the Bracha of "HaAdama".
If one eats the pits while eating the fruit , then they are included in the Bracha of HaEtz that one made on the fruit.

ReplyDeleteSure: if you crack open the rock-like apricot and peach pits, inside you'll find a very bitter "almond".
