Dunno, but I was told when I was in hospital after Christmas that I
must eat as much fresh piuneapple as I could as it would aid
healing?????

You can make an excellent bowling game with the pineapples
as ten-pins and a coconut as the bowling ball.

When growing they are damned prickly. If planted closer-than-normal they
would make a great fence for short livestock.

A table centerpiece.
A boat for a fruit salad
A large holder for appetizers on toothpicks.
A Hat for Carmen Miranda
A container for Thai Pineapple rice
An exotic drink container

I am sue there are many more uses.

They're a great ornamental if you live in the right climate or have a
greenhouse.
Didn't France's King Charles II give them as gifts to visiting dignitaries?
So add doorprize to the list.

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.

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.

Same thing with fresh kiwifruit and papaya. They all contain enzymes
which denature protein.
