The pineapple is a tropical fruit known for its sweet, tangy flavor and spiky, tough outer skin. It has a golden-yellow flesh that’s juicy and rich in vitamins, particularly vitamin C. Pineapples are widely enjoyed fresh, in smoothies, or as part of various dishes and desserts. Originally from South America, they are now grown in tropical climates around the world and are also prized for their potential health benefits, such as aiding digestion due to the enzyme bromelain.
