Fresh Pineapple

[applecruncher]

Kroger had whole fresh pineapples on sale 99¢ each. Good price - usually about $3 - $4 each.

Biggest challenge is cutting it up without wasting too much. You need a big, sharp knife to cut the top and bottom off - BE CAREFUL! Then cut the sides and the little brown eyelets. Next, cut in 4 pieces, and cut out the bitter core (I use a smaller knife for this).

But it's worth the work. YUM! So tasty and healthy. Breakfast for the next 4 - 5 days!

Kroger had whole fresh pineapples on sale 99 cents each. Good price - usually about $3 - $4 each.

Biggest challenge is cutting it up without wasting. then you have to cut the middle part, which is bitter. Then make sure all the little brown pieces are cut off the outside.

But it's worth the work. YUM! So tasty and healthy. Breakfast for the next 4 - 5 days!

We do love 'em too. We cut them into small pieces and refrigerate them then at night when you wake up and want something cold and juicy, they are the answer.

Thanks for the tip AC, we usually buy at least one when they're on sale at Krogers for $1. My husband always does the honors on cutting it up into cubes and putting it in a tupperware container so we can snack on it without too much muss or fuss.

My Favorite Use for Fresh Pineapples

Kadee, I wonder if Pineapple Wine would affect you? At 99 cents apiece, delicious wine can be made for under $ 5 a gallon; 3 or 4 good-sized fruits are plenty to make a gallon, 2 will do, but the really fruity, heavy wines we like need more. The second big bottle from the right is pineapple, 3 gallons fermenting. imp

We usually get pineapples for £1 at our supermarket. I learned to be a pro at cutting them when we lived in Uganda. We probably ate about 3 every week. The cost was the equivalent of about 30 cents each.

Thais are big on adding pineapple to their hot dishes. We haven't bought a whole fresh pineapple as we don't have the proper knives for it or a cutting board as we're not doing any cooking here. So we buy them cut up already.
