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

Is this a trick question? I've tried to root the top in the past, but
it hasn't worked for me.

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.

I'll vouch for that. I've never used it as a tenderisers although I know
about it but when I prepar a pineapple I can't resist nibbling at the flesh
left on the core even though I know i'll have a sore mouth for hours.

Short term hedonist, that's me!
