pineapple

In the first 25 years of my life (in the UK) pineapple came out of a tin - it might have been possible to get a fresh pineapple like this one I bought yesterday, but we were a tinned pineapple sort of family. It was amazing to see them growing during a trip to Queensland. They looked a bit like a triffid nursery.
