A quick hot summer day treat made with pineapple. From the USDA here is a fun fact on HOW DO PINEAPPLES GROW?
Most fruits develop in 3 to 4 months, but pineapples take about 18 months to grow!
Pineapples are grown from the crowns or tops of other pineapples. Each crown is planted by hand. When the plants are one year old the flowering process begins. The flower bud is small and pink, and looks like a pinecone. As the bud grows it will become the fruit we know as a pineapple. Pineapples are harvested when they are ripe. Every pineapple that is harvested is ready to eat. To ensure they are picked at their peak of maturity for ripeness and flavor, the
sugar content of pineapple is tested in the field. |
