Besides eating, what else have you found pineapples are also good

Is this a trick question? �I've tried to root the top in the past, but

Meat tenderizer. There's an enzyme in them, this is the main ingredient in
"accent:" meat tenderizer. It's why the corners of your mouth can get a
little sore if you eat a lot of fresh pineapple.

Yeah, it's eating you back!

It's also why you can't put fresh pineapple in Jell-o. The enzymes in
the pineapple break down the protein bonds in the gelatin and won't
gel.
